Brewers Notes:
very close to sam adams boston ale,in color, bittness, aroma and tase. One thing missing is diacetyl i taste in the sam adams version...next time im going to try an irish ale yeast.(or under pitch yeast)
i formulated this recipe using sam adams website and thier brewing specs,i.e. 1.048 og. 33 ibu's and types of hops they say they use.
