  A very nice, citrusy-tasting Summer ale. MUCH better from a keg than a bottle.

  Definately better on draught than out of the bottle. I am still a big fan though as it has very refreshing taste and is not something that fills you up.

  This beer has a very lemony, strong citrus smell and a distinct spicy smell and taste that hints of ginger, wheat and hops that is common in Summer beers. Medium carbonation, moderate to mild in spice & taste.
  
  I'm actually not a huge fan of Sam Adam's line of beers but this particular one is satisfactory when I'm at the bar. It costs significantly less in Boston because it's brewed nearby and I can feel good that since the beer is local it takes much less carbon to ship. However, there are several summer beers that offer a much fuller taste. This beer is a might dry, but definately a spicy, citrusy infused improvement on their other selections which have the distinct taste of having been watered down.

  With the glaring exception of their summer offering, I'm not much of a fan of the Sam Adams family of beers. Typically they're too bitter for my liking, but Sam Summer Ale is a nice, light but not watered-down choice for balmy summer days.
