I’ve mentioned before that I’m not a big fan of lagers in general.  Nothing against them, specifically, it’s just that they’re often not particularly interesting.   As lagers go, however, Boston Beer Company’s Samuel Adams Winter Lager is a pretty nice one.  It’s spiced, which adds a bit of holiday cheer, and a bit of bitter goodness to the middle.  The nose and the finish are pretty standard lager.  It’s a light to medium bodied beer, which is also a bit of a nice occasional change-up from all of the heavy winter warmers that define the season.
