Samuel Adams Boston Lager

Serve at 7–9°C for the best flavour balance and aroma expression.

The sturdy German stein maintains temperature and keeps carbonation intact. Built for long, convivial drinking.

◎ Appearance

A brilliant amber-gold hue with excellent clarity and a tight, white head that demonstrates fine carbonation and good retention. The color reflects the Vienna lager style perfectly, suggesting the careful use of caramel malts in the grain bill.

◌ Aroma

The nose showcases classic Vienna lager character with prominent caramel malt sweetness complemented by subtle floral and spice notes from Hallertau hops. Light bread-like esters and toasted grain aromas round out a balanced, inviting bouquet that's approachable yet complex.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with pronounced malty sweetness and caramel character that defines the mid-palate experience, while Hallertau hops provide restrained spice and bitterness. The 30 IBU bitterness sits in perfect balance with the malt backbone, creating a smooth, bread-forward profile with a light body that drinks easily.

◑ Finish

A crisp, clean finish with subtle hop spice lingering briefly on the palate. The aftertaste is dry and refreshing without harshness, leaving no cloying residue.
