I've had it too and I wasn't much a fan at all.

I'm a big fan of the Sam Adams Winter Pack. Just about all of them are a great change of pace from other beers, except the cranberry one... bleh

Both my husband and I love Wachusett Country on tap at our favorite after work stop!
Never had the winter though.

Raven, I just finished up the last of my Sam Octoberfest on Christmas. I try to overbuy to make it last a little longer, then switch over to the winter.

I also tried the Budweiser American Ale and was suprised at how much I liked it. It's a little watery compared to some other ales, but not bad coming from a big brewer. To me it seemed a little more like a pale ale than an amber ale, but I'd keep it in my fridge.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

i sometimes get adventurous with beer because in the olden days the first brews were meades made from honey...

i like a sweet beer thats dark... sometimes belhaven scottish ale is all i want... to get blasted McEwens is the definate high test...

even killians irish red is good sometimes..

and then when you have a dark stout guiness it tastes sour
but you eventually get used to it...

Certain beers just do me in....after just one
on
the next day...i am with a migraine hangover like i went on a binge... for a whole weekend... yep from just ONE

so i select wisely...

I like the blueberry ale in the summa, but that's about it for the 'chusett stuff.

Eagle Brook Saloon in Wrentham has the best micros, IMO....Outlaw Oatmeal Stout and Carson City Stew=

I prefer a vintage Luccini Wine Cellars 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon.
