Sam Adam's Fat Jack Review




I picked up a bottle of Sam Adam's Fat Jack Double Pumpkin.  First off, the label is awesome.  It has a very dark looking, almost Nightmare Before Christmas like pumpkin, with a devious smile on the front. I have been really enjoying Sam Adams big bottle series and was excited to try yet another new pumpkin beer. 
The beer was definitely strong.  At first, it almost seemed like a pumpkin barleywine.  After a few more sips, I noticed hints of cinnamon, pumpkin, and all spice.  I really liked the strong up front taste of this beer.  It had a great feel and the aftertaste was fall to a tee.  I really feel like Sam Adams is back to their creative ways.  For a while there, it seemed like they were offering many of the same boring beers.  However, there new stuff has been right on point .  Good job Sam. 8/10
