Heineken gives me heartburn, even after one.
Samuel Adams Lager. The ultimate beer.

Regional jingoism.



Hardly. Samuel Adams has become a world class beer. Not bad for it's
beginnings as a micro-brewery.

"The brewery has won more awards in international beer-tasting
competitions in the last five years than any other brewery in the world."

Maybe...but you can go here and see how it was done in the 1800s ( see

I grew up one city block from this brewery.

Ah, but Samuel Adams has a far more interesting and older history. It's
actually a old German brewmeister's recipe, the great, great grandfather of
the founder of Samuel Adams Brewery, Jim Koch. He found the recipe in the
attic of his house.
