It's about the same color as Sam Adams, but a more complex fragrant brew. I usually like a real "hoppy" beer, but Anchor Steam is not real hoppy. Pour it in a glass and let it foam up a bit. Rich creamy head. Wonderful beer. Tell me how you like it.
From a review in "The Beer Advocate";
Appearance: Hazy copper with a thick, off-white, rocky, bubbly, sticky, chunky head.
Smell: Earthy malt aromas with semi-caramel sweetness.
Taste: Immediately, the mouth is hit by a sharp bitterness, some salt and slight lemon from the hops. This is a beautiful thing, full of flavour and character. After, a mildly astringent, earthy, highly toasted malt guides you to a dry, grainy, residual citrus after-taste.
Notes: You don't find other beers like this, not even close in their mimics. This is truly a unique brew, and a classic; a legend in the hand-crafted/micro industry.
