While I like to go into stores that allow me to purchase different varieties of beers by the single, I stumbled across a Samuel Adams 6 pack which has 3 different beers in it. So I am reviewing the first one out of the box.  Sam Adam’s Brown Ale is a pleasant surprise.  It is a richer ale with a nice malt flavor, and a sweet aftertaste, but that turns tart after a few swigs.  It has a nice head to it and a touch of caramel and other flavors. I think the issue I have with the beer is it is not something I could consume more than one or 2 of at a time. It is too malty for my taste and seems to overload my taste buds quickly like running a wooden Popsicle stick over my tongue one time too many.  It is not too carbonated and has a nice dark full body. All in all I would rate it 3 out of 5 burps.

Bohemia beer is brewed in Mexico and has been around for over a hundred years. You can’t miss the unusual bottle in the stores. It is a fat, short brown bottle and has a long neck. The label is gold and the beer is clearly associating itself with some sort of Aztec heritage ( which is a ridiculous assertion), but I digress. The beer itself is a Pilsner and has a nice rich flavor to it with a suitable amount of carbonization. It is rich in hops and corn giving it a unique flavor among the Mexican beer family and a sweetness with the aftertaste. While it is no Negro Modelo it is a delight to drink and is one of my favorite alternates if Modelo is not available.

3 out of 5 burps.
