Boston Brewing Company
Boston, Massachusetts
APPEARANCE: 2/3
Dark gold color, clear. Thin, white head that rings the glass.
AROMA: 2.25/4
Sweet, clean nose. Slightly corny. No hop aroma, smells like a lager.
TASTE: 4.5/10
Hop/Malt Balance: 2.5/4: Caramel, candy corn, nutty-almond. Flavor fades quickly.
Aftertaste: 1/3: Metallic, bitter aftertaste. Astringent, perhaps chemical. Weird.
Mouth-Feel: 1/3: Thin, watery, coats the tongue.
OVERALL: 1/3: Why in the world would anybody buy this? BBC is a large scale brewer masquerading as a craft brewer. We would sooner drink any of the 100+ beers we've reviewed—even the abyssmal Walgreens Big Flats—than this (mostly on principle alone, but at least in part because it's a crummy beer).
TOTAL: 9.75/20–Anything Else On Tap?
NOTES:
Matt: Craft beer? I don't think so. Macro-brew, but also terrible. Nobody should pay money for this.
Ben: I didn't like this before we reviewed this, and I don't like it now. There are many, many, MANY better beers out there.
