Eric's Ale
Other Ale / 7%
Eric Salazar, the brewer of this sour peach hybrid best describes the beer and processes he goes through to make it in his own words. "For the strong golden half of this beer I used aged hops and an extended boil like a traditional lambic brew. Aged hops will impart all the preservation aspects of the hops but not the bitterness, i.e. the low IBU's. boil time is extended to boil off any off flavors from the aged hops. This beer underwent 4 separate fermentations 1) Original Biere De Mars (BDM) base beer in stainless 2) BDM base beer two years in wood cellar 3) Recent strong golden brew in stainless 4) Post blend we added yeast for a final fermentation. The Final fermentation took care of all the fermentable sugars from the peach addition leaving only a slight hint of the fruit and opening up the flavor profile, I didn't want this to be just another fruit beer." Peachy sour, this beer is just plain delicious! Where To Buy It: Specialty grocery/bottle shops/bars

Samuel Adams
Boston Lager
Lager
Samuel Adams Boston Lager® is the best example of the fundamental characteristics of a great beer, offering a full, rich flavor that is both balanced and complex. It is brewed using a decoction mash, a time consuming, traditional four vessel brewing process discarded by many contemporary brewers. This process brings forth a rich sweetness from the malt that makes it well worth the effort. Samuel Adams Boston Lager® also uses only the finest of ingredients including two row barley, as well as German Noble aroma hops. The exclusive use of two row barley not only imparts a full, smooth body but also gives the beer a wide spectrum of malt flavor ranging from slightly sweet to caramel to slightly roasted. The Noble hops varieties, Hallertau Mittelfruh and Tettnang Tettnanger, add a wide range of floral, piney and citrus notes, which are present from the aroma, through the flavor, to the lingering smooth finish. We take great pride in the Noble hops used in our beers. They are hand selected by Jim Koch and our other brewers from the world's oldest hops growing area. Among the world's most expensive, they cost twenty times as much as other hops.
Summer Ale
Other Ale
Samuel Adams® Summer Ale is an American wheat ale. This summer seasonal uses malted wheat as well as lemon zest and grains of paradise, a rare pepper from Africa first used as a brewing spice in the 13th Century to create a crisp and spicy flavor and body. The ale fermentation imparts a background tropical fruit note reminiscent of mangos and peaches. All of these come together to create a quenching, clean finishing beer perfect for those warm Summer days.
