Beer 365- #151 Sam Adams Long Shot Bock
Looks a little like Dr Pepper in the glass. Not a ton on the nose, some hints of fruity malt. The mouth is medium in body with good carbonation. Flavors are more noticeable than the nose, sweet caramel malt with some hints of plum peeking through. Finish is relatively clean. (6.8% ABV)

Beer 365- Beer #15 Berkshire Miabock lager.

I love almost all of the Berkshire line. This is one that forces me to say almost. Not a huge Maibock fan. Way too sweet and cloying, I get a headache just thinking about it. I don't think it is any fault of Berkshire, I think it is true to the style, just not my favorite style! (6.5% ABV)
