Sam Adams Oktoberfest

It started shipping here in NJ this past Monday. I expect a case to arrive in store tomorrow. As I still have a few squirrelled away from last year (and have been promised a few "samples" from my rep

), I'll not be buying any soon, so you're welcome to it.

This is excellent news. It's a long drive to Jersey, but I appreciate the offer. I'll be checking the stores around here this weekend.

Maybe its me.... I still think the Winter ale is the best seasonal.

I like it too, Brother Chris, as well as the recently "retired" Summer lager.

Well I'm in the minority I guess. I hated both Winter Lager and Summer Lager. In fact, the only Sam Adams I really enjoy to drink is Noble Pils. Actually, their Imperial Stout is decent as well.

No such thing, brother. Diff'rent strokes. That's why Kellogg's makes Variety Packs.

Say, does Kellogg's still make Variety Packs?

I just had a couple pints of Oktoberfest at the bar last night.

I'm not sure which is the best S.A. beer but I know which two are the worst,
I'll always drink a Cherry Wheat and the Cranberry Lambic when I want a

and a

respectively.

I really can't do the noble pils... i feel like I'm drinking a glass of potpourri.

The winter beers (Chocolate stout, old fezziwig, and the winter ale) are my three favorite of the seasonals.
