From Bottles to Growlers- beer reviews by SANDY FELD, certified taster
| Heavy Seas Peg Leg This version of an Imperial Stout may be a tad light for some but generally fills the bill. First sip brings a full, creamy malt and alcoholic taste. This is followed by clear tones of bitter coffee and caramel. As the brew warms chocolate appears adding a gentle sweetness with molasses overtones. Overall Rating - good |
| DAB Dark DAB boasts of a lightly sweet and smooth malty character. With gentle hints of nuts and biscuits a malty roasted flaovr comes to the fore in mid-taste. The finish brings grassy sweetness in toasty, herbal mix. This is a German dark beer long admired for good reason. Overall Rating - Very Good |
Having sampled well over 2,750 different beers in my
capacity as a fully certified taster I can promise
honest, thoughtful, and careful evaluations. However,
remember that these reviews are totally subjective.
Consider this column an informative resource only.
The bottom line is to trust your own judgment and
keep drinking!

| Samuel Adams Octoberfest Reportedly the largest selling Oktoberfest beer in the US this amber colored brew has an assertive nuttty and malty taste that quickly smooths out into a gentle sweetness. Hops remain in the background and never quite balance the malt's domination. Light hints of chocolate appear at the finish. Well made and a standard by which to judge others. Overall rating - Very Good |
