have you had Noble Pils? Sam Adams seems like they care more about volume and quantity that quality. For the extra $1 a six pack, I'll take goose island or victory (currently the premium brands my Giant stocks). Something about Sam Summer always refreshes me and remind me of Summer, but that's the only Sam beer I buy anymore
Noble Pils reminds me of another now-discontinued Sam Adams issue, Oregon IPA - the hops that just won't stop, and nice just for that, but it could stand a bit longer aging to develop proper flavour.
