I'm not too big on the regular Sam Adams Boston Lager, but I do really enjoy their seasonal White Ale. Its a great refreshing wheat beer.

right on...
every sam adams i've tried has given me bad heartburn less than a minute after taking the first few sips - and not tasted very good at all.

there's a KC "macrobrewery" that's a lot better, Boulevard. i love their dry stout.

I haven't found these yet. I have had the Summer ale and Cherry Wheat this summer and I love them. I would love to try these new ones as well but S.A. is hard to find up here in the woods.

Off the top of my head, Dogfish Head, Three Floyds, Great Lakes Brewery, Leiny, Goose Island, Shiner, Arcadia, and my home brew when I have time to make some and it turns out half way decent. Thats just to name a few. I personally prefer lots of variety, there is a store in Toledo (The Anderson's, which is a chain in Ohio) that has a very large variety of microbrews that I like to randomly select from when I go there. Sam Adams is my go to brew, I really like it and its usually available at most places. I also just like to get a different style of Sam, not just sticking with the Boston Lager.

If you're from No California, there are some seasonal Sierra Nevada beers that are pretty good. I've had some of the Sierra Nevada Summerfest recently and it's on the lighter side but really good.

There's a brewery in Sonoma named Racer 5 that makes a great IPA thats on the hoppy side a little on the high side for alcohol but still very tasty. To my knowledge, it only comes in 22oz bottles due to alcohol content.

We have Sierra Nevadas all over but Racer 5 is a new one to me.

Photos I took...

Sierra Nevada Pale Ale is my go-to brew. Had the pleasure of going to their Chico brewery last summer and had their sampler, a few ounces of everything they make.



Then I waited a bit to drive home.

p.s. Have to conclude that SN is selling the best of their brews. The others that you don't find in bottles still need work. I'm a big fan of barleywines and it's hard to find their Bigfoot Ale around Los Angeles, but it's good.

Nice pictures! There bigfoot barley wine is great

[CigarGal]

Sierra Nevada Pale Ale is in every store up here but the others they make are harder to find. We have a brewery in Eureka-Lost Coast Brewery that is very popular and you can find three of theirs everywhere...Downtown Brown, Alley Cat and Great White. Sometimes even on tap. Another small local brewery is just over the mountain, called Etna Brewing Co. and I have been drinking their Phoenix Red this summer. Pretty tasty. Every neighborhood should have a brewery

Honors The Boston Beer Company's namesake, Samuel Adams. As a tribute to the patriot, the final beer of the collection is a hard root beer, the type of brew Samuel Adams would have brewed and enjoyed. Named after the year when hard root beers soared in popularity with colonial drinkers, the brew features ingredients such as blackstrap molasses, sassafras root bark, dried wintergreen and licorice. All ingredients are authentic to the colonial era and are consistent with the innovative style of New England brewers like Samuel Adams. 1790 Root Beer Brew™ is an intensely aromatic beer, which features a chestnut brown color and finishes with a hint of vanilla and honey. We recommend pairing this beer with fried chicken or clams, pizza or as an ingredient in a creamy root beer float with vanilla ice cream.

Right up my alley. Thanks for the post sounds awesome. Im a big fan of the Black Lager.
