I could dip some empties into my toilet and put the cap back on for you.

If by domestic we now mean American, yes, you can find it at Co-op liquour stores. I've seen it there a few times anyway.

My American beer of choice. The Boston Lager is fantastic. Oktoberfest is okish.

As someone who had to put up with this average at best, terrible at worst beer for years, all I have to ask is why?

Co-op Liquor store at Shaganappi and Country Hills. Good stuff, too. I just finished a 6-pack.

Sam Adams? You should try Samuel Jackson.

Sam Adams is the best macro beer from the US around and better than a lot of American micro's I've had. Great session beer.

The Boston Lager has a score of 87% on Beer Advocate.

The Boston Lager is fantastic! I'm pretty surprised by how many people dislike it. Id much rather have a bottle of this over any other canadian or american beer and its not really close.

I know at Willow Park in the SW by Westbrook they had a 6 pack on special (get a free Sam Adams pint).

But god, that stuff is just plain awful. One of the worst beers I have ever tasted.

Realy? Sam Adams has to be the worst beer ever made. You don't see it much here because they have a hard time even giving that crap away.

I really enjoy Sam Adams. Very confused by all this hatred for it. I've seen the Boston Lager at many liquor stores.

The Winter Lager is great too. You may have a little trouble finding it at most stores, but Willow Park would have it.

It's ok, but not a favorite of mine. The thing about beer is, all beer is good - it's just that some are better than others

As a Canadian who migrated to the USA, WHY would you want that crap?

Canadian Beer (not Molson) is way better.

Back when I was young and dumb on a trip to Arizona I picked up a 6 pack of Sam Adams...That is the only 6 pack of beer I have never finished in my life.

This thread shows why we need a "No Thanks" button...There is a handful of posts in this thread that should be slapped with that bad boy.

It's great stuff for washing out the taste of weed and hooker sweat.
