I really love the new Sam Adams seasonal IPA. It is called Noble Pils.

Got a four pack of Maui Brewing Company Coconut Porter to try out.
6 pack of Modus Hoperandi
4 pack of Founder's Breakfast Stout
Thanks for picking these up for me JHawk.
No prob I just point you in the direction where they were locatedTwo bottles of Avery Black Tot thanks to Cali Mike.
It's decent, but I really don't think it stacks up to the likes of Prima Pils (or Sly Fox Pikeland, for that matter). What it has going for it is accessibility, which the more aggressively hopped and bitter Prima does not. I served the Victory beer to a group of college seniors I was doing a tasting for, and it was nowhere near the top of their favorites. Most didn't like it at all (perish the thought!) The SA Noble Pils, I think, has better mass appeal. That's not to say it's bad (it's certainly not), but there are better representations of the German/Czech pilsener out there. We're fortunate in this area to have 3 local breweries with a true German lager-brewing tradition, so I'll be the first to admit that I'm spoiled.I really love the new Sam Adams seasonal IPA.

It's actually a German Pils, but yeah, it's pretty damn tasty.

Good to see you in the Beer forum more Greg. LOL. Good choices on the pick up. Since you've had Ted Fidy before, I recommend aging a couple of them, maybe six months. It gets way smoother and less boozy.
Have you tried the other ST offerings, Jahva, Mokah, and Choklat?
