Samuel Adams Double Bock (Imperial Series)
Pours a wonderful mahogany color. Has a small amount of dark tan head.The aroma is raisins and caramel. The taste is of sweet malt and raisins. The mouthfeel is a little thin, but not terribly so for this style. I typically enjoy Spaten Optimator, but this Samuel Adams if much more fresh and alive. Almost on par with Ayinger Celebrator. This is my standard beer until I drink up all there is for this year in town. I wish SA would brew this year round! Just a thought, barleyman
