yeah, i'm not a beer snob, i'll drink anything, and give it a fair shake. sometimes sam adams falls flat, but occasionally they hit it out of the park.
the sam adams cream stout is ok. there's just not a whole lot to it. a little weak, but agreeable enough flavor.
the noble pils is actually pretty good -- i actually found that on tap at red robin, of all places.
i am in love with the Sam Adams Imperial Stout though. i agree completely with the reviewer. it's absolutely delicious. it's an incredibly bold product for such a large brewer. smells wonderfull, too.
avoid the Imperial White, though, it starts out too sweet, and the sweetness rises during the aftertaste. yuck.
my favorite beer these days is Palo Santo Marron by Dogfish Head. it recently replaced my former favorite, La Fin Du Monde. This is quite an accomplishment, because La Fin Du Monde actually holds sentimental value for me:
my first trip to canada, with my future wife. the summer of 1997. at the time, i knew nothing of microbrews. "icehouse" was about as exotic as i'd ever gotten with beer. we stopped at a little country store in the Quebec wilderness, and i saw these beers with these amazing evocative labels, by some company i'd never heard of called Unibroue. Eau bénite, and La Fin Du Monde. well, i bought them totally not knowing what to expect. i was very leery of the 9% abv listed on the bottle, but i was shocked to discover that these beers tasted better than any i'd ever had. i had no idea, before that day, that beer wasn't supposed to taste like watered down metallic urine. sitting there in the canadian wilderness on the porch of my girlfriend's cabin, it was love at first sip.
