Slightly sweet aroma with hints of hop smell. Good fresh hop taste, medium strong. Finishes with a good hop aftertaste. Very good fresh, raw, grainy taste (as I had it straight from the brewery…). Gravity served from big barrels on the bar. Every now and then you hear a low rumble as a barrel goes rolling by either on its way to or from the bar.

Slightly sweet smell, not really appealing at first- smells kind of like a mass market lager. But very nice taste. Smooth but tasty. Finishes nicely with a very mild hop taste that fades smoothly. Ingredients includes sugar, which must give it its smoothness. After a few more drinks, decided it tasted very similar to Kid Rock Badass Lager.

Nice dry hoppy smell, but mild. Fresh hop taste, with a nice clean grainy aftertaste.

Awesome woody oak aroma. Slightly sweet hop flavor, smooth aftertaste. Kind of ruined my taste test by eating mint chocolate before…

Almost no aroma. Flavor like a stout with hints of hops. Leaves a kind of dark malt/light hoppy taste without much aftertaste.

Nice hoppy aroma, a bit sweet. Initial taste is good, easy drinking with a moderate hop taste. Aftertaste finishes with a bit of a harsh flavor. Overall pretty good but the aftertaste lets it down.

Wow, a Sam Adams beer that actually tastes like a craft beer! Initially, I was worried about the aroma because of a whole lot of nothing going on other than a faint sweet smell. The taste has a good hop flavor with a nice raw/grainy taste to it. A little bit of hop aftertaste. All in all, very nice other than the aroma.

Nice sharp aroma. Fairly significant bite on the taste buds with first drink. Taste is a little bit sweet with nice hoppy bite aftertaste.

Kind of yucky aroma like body odor, taste starts a bit harsh, but is immediately followed by a nice malt taste. Amazing after all that up front that there’s very little aftertaste. In the end, I’m not sure what to think. After a few more tastes, the malty aftertaste starts to be pretty nice.

Good. Clean, malty, a bit sweet.
