Lager Lavishness Tasting

Garrett Oliver's Brooklyn Lager will again challenge Jim Koch's Samuel Adams Boston Lager. Shall we begin the quaffing session?
Brooklyn Lager: Color-Reddish gold cloudy Nose-Hoppy First taste-Full mouth; pleasing taste Observations-Just grows on me Fizziness-Frothy head Where brewed? Utica, NY Cost-90 cents per 12 ozs. Container-Bottle Aftertaste-I remember it well!!! Rating-8
Samuel Adams Boston Lager: Color-Golden; reddish, yellow hue Nose-Clean First taste-Slight burst; dissipates Observations-Solid not excellent Fizziness-Frothy head Where brewed? Boston, Mass. Cost-$1 per 12 ozs. Container-Bottle Aftertaste-Some taste left Rating-7
FINAL THOUGHT: Brooklyn Lager value priced at $21.49 per case at Costco!!!
