Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • Sam Adams was my go-to as well. Hot water soak inside and out and they would peel off pretty easily.
  • In the past, Sam Adams labels were fairly easy to remove with a soak and steel wool.
  • Get a couple mixed 12 packs - Sam Adams, New Belgium, Sierra Nevada, etc. Try somethings out
  • It's overhated honestly. They make decent beer that imo is a step up from ordering a macro beer at a bar that has a limited draft list.
  • Sam Adams is available almost everywhere.

Cons

  • It's like Sam Adams for people in that region.
  • Yeah tbh i forgot i had the Sam Adams, it’s a lower abv lager, so i don’t have the highest expectations. I just figured it’s now or never.
  • Parent context: I wouldn't say that makes them overrated. They're rarely *great* but consistently *good*, and I haven't heard anyone describe Sam Adams as some amazing gold-standard in beer brand in years. Reply: Overhated, not overrated
  • It could be me, but what happened to Sam Adam's? It used to be the best alternative to the big boys, but now it seems to be less than the big boys - very dull, bland, watery beers.
  • but if you can't tell the difference between a Sam Adams and a Heady Topper? That's on you.
