Well, it's getting cooler (finally) outside, so I guess we are rolling into "stout" season. That means good for the taste buds..........bad for the pursuit of the flat belly.
I haven't always been a fan of this type of beer, but I guess my taste has matured........unfortunately, so has everything else. I am also finding myself trying and enjoying more and more Sam Adams beers. This cream stout just added to that list.
When I first saw this beer in the cooler at the local beer store I really had no desire to try it. Just the name "Cream Stout" is a little intimidating/frightening. I am glad I bought a six pack of it.
It is a typical "chocolate" stout with all the malts and flavors you expect. However, it wasn't as thick as I expected. Don't get me wrong, I couldn't sit down and drink all six, but two or three would be no problem......even with food. It had just the right amount of sweetness with no overpowering aftertaste. I will definitely be purchasing more in the upcoming months. Samuel Adams is beginning to win me over.
