The newest addition to the Collection, Samuel Adams Thirteenth Hour is a Belgian stout that combines the roasted chocolate and coffee flavors of a traditional stout with the spicy character of a Belgian ale aged in oak.
From the Brewer – “The thirteenth hour is the witching hour and refers to the mysterious combination of flavors in this brew. We’ve combined the roasted chocolate and coffee flavors of a stout with the spicy character of a Belgian ale aged in oak.
The combination of 7 different malts creates a brilliant black brew that’s full-bodied and smooth with rich notes of coffee, chocolate, and dark fruits like raisins and plums. The dark roasty, and slightly sweet flavors of a stout are blended with the unique, spicy and sour character of our Kosmic Mother Funk (KMF), an ale that’s been aged in oak tuns for up to a year. The KMF gives the beer an added complexity with notes of black pepper, oak, vanilla, and a hint of acidity.”
