    Samuel Smith Pure Brewed Lager

    Name – Samuel Smith Pure Brewed Lager
    Country – England
    Type – Lager

    Appearance – Golden yellow color with a frothy white head that disappeared rather quickly.

    Smell – Not a very strong scent.  I was actually surprised and thought there was something wrong with my sense of smell.

    Taste – Very full taste that is a little sweet and malty.  Extremely smooth finish.

    I have been a fan of Samuel Smith’s Oatmeal Stoat for quite some time and after recommendations to try this I was not disappointed in the slightest.  I still can not believe how very smooth the drink is.  Definitely is one of the best lagers I have ever had the pleasure of drinking.  I can now believe that Samuel Smith Breweries can do no wrong with their beer making.  Highly recommended if you enjoy lagers and this will get my highest grade yet.

    Overall Grade – A

    Trip to the Yuengling Brewery

    This past Saturday while on vacation in PA I took a trip up to Pottsville, PA to visit America’s Oldest Brewery, Yuengling.  And here are some pictures from my trip.

    Saranac Pale Ale

    Name – Saranac (Classic English Pale Ale)
    Country
    – United States
    Type – Pale Ale

    Appearance – Mike help me out here? I believe very similar to Killian’s in color! (Mike’s Note: Come on Chris! You also forgot smell)

    Taste – I do remember the taste of this Ale, but will not wait so long to post about a beer I am reviewing again. Immediately I noticed a sharp taste, almost tart in flavor. This Ale provided a decent amount of head when poured properly, not just dumped into a pint glass. Had the perfect amount of carbonation and was overall very pleasant. Saranac would be a respectable gaming beer also. As always if you too have sampled this fine Pale Ale let me know your comments and opinions.

    Price – Very reasonable $1.45 per bottle.

    Teacher Says – B+
