Samuel Adam's Boston Lager is getting easier to find, but Winter Lager is something new in Madrid. At least I haven't seen it before. Again, I bend to imagined seasonal pressures.
It's not as foamy as Stille Nacht, although it has a similar color. It has kind of an earthy smell, but a strangely complicated taste - sweet with salty undertones. In fact, it reminds me of some pizza sauces. How American can you get? Although it has a fairly fluffy beginning, only a thin cover of foam remains after settling. Although I had small hopes of something more...wintery, it's a perfectly drinkable lager. Maybe I was thinking too much about Christmas, with cinnamon or peppermint or ginger. Oh well, maybe next year.
