Sam Adams Chocolate Bock – Boston, MA

Sam Adams Chocolate Bock – 3.5/5

Sam Adams Chocolate Bock was part of this years winter collection. For those of you who are not overly adventurous with trying new and interesting beers, I strongly suggest trying the Sam Adams seasonals.

Sam Adams brewery seems to play it safe with their seasonals. They are never big and bold but more a subtle and safe effort.

The Chocolate Bock has a really nice roasty, chocolate aroma and mild sweetness to taste. I found it was very drinkable and the sweetness paired really well with my wife’s chipotle chilli.

Sam Adams Boston Lager - Boston MA

Sam Adams Boston Lager
3/5

Sam Adams Boston Lager is by no means amazing, but for a mass produced, corporate beer it really is quite decent.

Most restaurants and bars will have Sam Adams. It's a great party beer because not only is it relatively inexpensive but you don't feel like a cheapskate offering it to your friends.

I'm not going to go out of my way to pair it to any specific food but as mentioned, it's a great party beer and will be a hit at your next BBQ.
