Description:

right and citrusy, brewed with mysterious grains of paradise.
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

Has a golden look and is pretty cloudy. Pours about 1 fingers worth of head with minimal lacing and fizzles down pretty quick.

Can make out some hops and a zesty lemon smell.

A lighter beer with a medium amount of carbonation.

Has a slightly malty flavor in the beginning followed by the zesty lemon which finishes crisp.

Overall - 4.0

Extremely smooth and refreshing. This is the definition of a summer beer. Could easily knock back a couple of these at outdoor summer events.
