This week's Sunday Night Suds looks at Samuel Adams Wicked Easy Lager.
No, this is not a resurrection of Pete's Wicked which has been gone for more than a decade, but the Boston Beer folks are now using the word "wicked" in connection with multiple beers, including the Wicked Easy Lager, Wicked Hazy IPA and Wicked Double NEIPA.
This beer claims to be a lager, but the flavor profile is much more robust than your average lager. There was some fruit and hops, which although not as strong as an IPA, was still quite refreshing. The beer poured a pale yellow like a normal lager, but with a scent of fruit and cloudiness in the glass. There was some lacing on the glass, also typical for a lager.
At 4.7% abv the beer was average for a lager, but the alcohol taste was not present and if I had more than one I don't know that I would have felt it.
The Wicked Easy Lager is under the Kosher Supervision of the Star-K and has a Star-K certification mark on the can. To see what the experts on Beer Advocate think about this brew, please follow this link - beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/35/317014.
As always, please remember to drink responsibly and to never waste good beer unless there is no designated driver.
