Merry Christmas to all! Unless you hate and/or have no affiliation with this Christian holiday, then Seasons Greetings asshole.
Sam Adams teamed up with the oldest brewery in the world which is located in Germany, Weihenstephaner, to create a fairly new style of beer that's gaining popularity, Champagne Beer.

It cost $20. I also don't like it. It's unique and is certainly a well crafted beer. However, this collaboration isn't as complex as the Brooklyn-Schneider brew which knocked the pants off me yesterday. The Infinium poured with super heavy carbonation and smells as malty as it tastes. I suppose what surprised me so much was the abscence of hops in this beer. It's overwhelmingly malty and tastes of apricot. Color me unimpressed.
Btw, the pilsner glasses you see in all the pictures this week with my/dad's initials frosted into them, wanna guess how long my parents have had them? They were a wedding present. They've been married 42 years. Isn't that sumpthin?! I had no idea until my dad casually mentioned that and it blew my mind.
Conclusion: Me and my brother Warren (chocolate santa car pictured above) both like the Brooklyn-Schnieder Weissbock we drank yesterday much more. The Infinium lacks complexity and is way too malty for my taste. Was worth the 20 dollar price tag? Nopers. ARMAGEDDON rating.
