My roommate kindly brought me this beer back from his after-softball drinking - much appreciated.

For me, the Sam Adams seasonal beers are always hit-or-miss. The spring and winter ones are the beers that trick me the most - they seem like such good ideas at the time but then I get home with a 12-pack of them and find that I’m disappointed once again. This Summer Ale’s pretty so-so itself. A nice light golden color with a slight haze and a small lingering head, it looks like a great summer beer. It’s got some good flavors in there as well, but I think my main complaint here is that those flavors just aren’t very pronounced. Tangy on the tip of the tongue, it trails off quickly from there with a little bit of grassy flavor and a hint of orange. I just was expecting quite a bit more from a wheat beer than what I got. movies black pussy freecock free monster moviesmovies gay men freemovie sex scenes greatmovies sharing filemovie pornstar clipsin java quicktime moviesstrip poker movie Map
