In 2021, OctoberFest is definitely back with its "deep malt complexity, roasty sweetness and light hop character," according to the brand.
Jack-O is back.
Sam Adams has brought back Jack-O "by popular demand," delivering flavors that the brand says bring back "memories of homemade pumpkin pie: fresh pumpkin, cinnamon and nutmeg," with subtle citrus on the finish.
There's an exclusive new Sam Adams fall flavor debut.
Of course Sam Adams has introduced a combo pack of fall beers (cozily dubbed the "Sweater Weather" Variety Pack). This year, it comes stocked with Sam's flagship Boston Lager, OctoberFest, Jack-O, and a variety pack exclusive in the all-new Festbier. Samuel Adams says Festbier "has a medium body, clean finish, with notes of toasty Munich malt."
