Samuel Adams smells like beer after I have thrown it up

This thread is better suited for IMHO. I’ll move it for you.

Sam Adams is a pretty decent beer. In fact, I’d say it’s one of the best widely available American beers, up there with Bass and Pete’s Wicked.

fetus is just a mere beer-child and is still getting over the shock of discovering how bad Bud and Coors are. There’s a lot of excellent American beer out there - give them a try.

1: Obligatory Monty Python quote: “American beer is like making love in a canoe: It’s fucking close to water.”

2: I also thought the OP’s title suggested the aroma of SA beer after ingestion & regurgitation.

3: Nope, ain’t gonna do it.

I always thought the lime-and-Corona thing tasted like beer puke. The lime gives it that stomach-acidy tang. Don’t know what genius came up with that particular trend.

Pete’s is a great American beer. Bass is just a great beer.

If you want a beer with a really vile aroma, ditch the Sam Adams and get yourself some Rattler. That shit smells so bad it can clear out a room. The funny thing is, though, it doesn’t taste all that bad.

I missed this. Bass is British.

Yeungling, however, is heads and shoulders above any similarly priced imported beer. And widely available, at least in the east.

I had that when I was in Pennsylvania recently. Good stuff. Especially fun to look at the bottle and remark on the name after you’ve had a few.

Hmm, I really like Sam Adams. They have a new holiday variety pack that has a few new flavors, all of which are good except the Cranberry one. I don’t care for fruity beers though.

But, I’m not a beer snob. I’ll drink anything from Coors Light to Michelob to Heineken to Guiness. I don’t like the cheapie stuff like Bud or Old Milwaukee, but anything higher than a Rolling Rock is ok with me.
