Samuel Adams Small Batch “Fat Jack”

Sam Adams Fat JackMore pumpkin laden brew on the way from the makers of Samuel Adams.  Fat Jack looks to be making an appearance in the Small Batch Series.

This rich and luscious brew indulges in flavor with over 28Ibs of pumpkin per barrel, for a full bodied sweetness and deep russet color. Classic pumpkin pie spices of cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and allspice ignite a warmth and spark that’s deepened by an undercurrent of roasty smoked malts. The result is a delectable brew full of enveloping layers of flavor and spice.

At Samuel Adams we love experimenting. This series of limited edition brews represents some of our favorite small batch creations.
