Is Samuel Adams Cold Snap a rebrand of the White Ale? It looks that way. The spring seasonal white ale uses a host of different spices like coriander and orange peel to create a complex, smooth flavor.
Crisp & lively, the hazy smoothness of this unfiltered White Ale is roused by the cracking of spring spices. From a hint of sweetness from orange peel & plum to the peppery bite of fresh ground coriander, the subtle blend of spices creates just the right refreshing kick to signal that spring is on its way. Cheers!
Style: White Ale (w/ Orange Peel, Coriander, Plum)

The fund helps those that need financial assistance, from travel, treatment, prothesis, child care, and more. The recipe was developed by Weyerbacher’s New Jersey representative Natalie DeChico.
