SAMUEL ADAMS

The brewer has released the 3Oth anniversary edition of its Octoberfest and the new Kosmic Sour for fall. The Octoberfest is a traditional märzen style that uses a proprietary blend of four different malts to create a rich, smooth almost creamy beer. Notes of toffee. Kosmic Sour is a tart and wild ale that’s light-bodied and crisp with subtle cereal notes. Flavors include strong red fruit balanced by sour and sweet pale malts. Kosmic Sour is blended with a Belgian beer called Kosmic Mother Funk (KMF), an ale with spontaneous fermentation that’s been aged for two years. Suggested retail for a 6-pack is $9.99. Also available in 12-packs of bottles and cans and in the Samuel Adams Fall Variety Pack. AVAILABLE FROM Burke Distributing, Commercial Distributing Company, L. Knife & Son and Merrimack Valley Distributing.
