BOSTON BEER CO. - SAMUEL ADAMS WEE HEAVY This is a Scotch style ale in the Samuel Adams Imperial Series, not sure i have had this style before, with a 10% ABV. It kind of smells smoky and burnt, roasted malts with just a hint of caramel. The first taste had a sharp burnt malt punch with some sweet carmelized fruit in the finish. Very complex, a lot going on. The high ABV is partially hidden, but you can notice it in the finish for sure. Although its fairly smooth and tasty, just not my favorite style.
BOSTON BEER CO. - SAMUEL ADAMS DOUBLE BOCK This is a doppelbock in the Samuel Adams Imperial Series with a 9.5% ABV. Aroma has some sweet malts, a little caramel and some dark fruits. Taste is malty caramel with some nutty notes amd dark fruit. Not bad, but i was expecting more. Worth a try, but considering i had just had the Ayinger Celebrator Doppelbock a week or so ago, which was so good, this one just didnt quite compare. Certainly nothing wrong with this, it actually suits the style well.
