Samuel Adams® Summer Styles

 

Samuel Adam’s beers are as American as apple pie and the beers are rich in history as is our nation.  I love the assortment of summer beers they have brewed up for our enjoyment all in one box!  The box of 12 beers consists of 6 styles:

Samuel Adams® Boston Lager® (balanced flavorful and complex)
Sam Adams® Light® (smooth and refreshing)
Samuel Adams® Summer Ale (lemon with crisp wheat)
Samuel Adams® Latitude 48 IPA (distinctive hop spiciness)
Samuel Adams® East-West Kölsch (bright fragrant and refreshing)
Samuel Adams® Rustic Saison (light, spicy and complex)

Invite friends and family over or take a box to a party and pour up a few brews, taste, chat and decide which one is your favorite.

Reviewing their website, I summed up a brief history worth chatting about.  The Koch family created this beer generations ago based on a recipe from Louis Koch.  They decided on this name based upon Samuel Adams who was a revolutionary thinker who fought for independence and inherited a brewing tradition and brewery from his father.  Without Jim Koch’s determination to go from door to door asking bars and restaurants to serve the beer he named Samuel Adams®, we may not be able to enjoy this wonderful selection of brews.  Cheers to Jim Koch!     

This statement comes from Samuel Adams website:  “We will never know whether beer was the happy accident of bakers, or bread the happy accident of brewers, but we do know that perhaps 8,000 years ago people in several distinct cultures independently invented beer.”

From the Chatty Gourmetâ„¢ – beer or bread we are all happy!
