Good Point about the Contract Brewing Fact (Reply to this comment)
by silverkris
Bruguru makes an excellent point about the fact that Sam Adams is a contract brew, rather than a local microbrew. It is rather deceptive about Jim Koch touting it or hinding that fact, though from a business standpoint, it actually makes sense.
Nevertheless, this doesn't change the fact that Sam Adams Boston Lager and Summer Brew taste really good, and I have to hand Koch credit for that.
For those interested in the brewing industry, Philip Van Munchen's "Beer Blast" and Daniel Baum's, "Citizen Coors: An American Dynasty" are great reads.

Indeed Jim Koch was a contract brewer (Reply to this comment)

Very useful collection of information. I like the way that epinions added these new categories so we can write about a brewery and it's beers in general. You picked out some good ones and could have listed many more. I'm currently loving their summer-weizen.

Bruguru strikes again. (Reply to this comment)

You sure didn't achieve the username by accident did you? I don't think I've ever seen so many detailed beer reviews before. Maybe us Aussies are getting all the crappy stuff over here. I might have to look more carefully next time.

Great review! (Reply to this comment)

I'm not much of a beer drinker, but when I do have a cold one, it is often a Sam Adams. Thanks for the historical perspective!
Thanks for sharing.

Your insights are always refreshing.
I'm inclined to slip out of the office and enjoy some afternoon beveraging.

Nice Review! (Reply to this comment)
by shoehorny
I wrote a similar review about Sam Adams beer and got bashed for it (probably because I didn't have nice things to say about the beer!). You're right about mass brewing! This beer is made in factories - making their advertising a bit deceptive! Thanks for the review! Excellent work!
