Tap Handle #19: Samuel Adams Octoberfest - Mug

This one is very similar to the Boston Lager mug, except the color is gold instead of platinum and the label says "Octoberfest." There are other, newer Octoberfest taps, but this is by far my favorite version. One of the few breweries that refers to this variety by spelling Octoberfest with a "c" instead of a "k" in the name.

Samuel Adams Octoberfest is a golden-red amber beer blending five roasts of barley and having toffee and caramel flavors, and is a seasonal (fall) brew. It's meant to go well with sausage, hence the Octoberfest moniker. Weighted average on ratebeer.com is 3.23 out of 5.
