Returning to Boston to perform a mission. Review all Sam Adam's brews over the next several weeks. Let's see if their Boston Ale is the benchmark of quality like their Lager is.
It's a perfect amber color with a thick creamy head. It has a medium malty aroma with a hint of citrus.
It has a very nice sweet and malty front. It's creamy in the middle. It coats the tongue. It has a medium hop bitterness at the end. It has a nice dry exhale. The flavor lingers for a while but in a good way.
I would consider this a pale ale. Given that it's a bit too malty and not enough hops. In fact, it is very similar to their Lager except the ale is creamy. Purely as a beer this is pretty good stuff. Very drinkable. But, as a Pale Ale I take a point off.
