Sam Smith organic pale ale is the best beer. Period.

Hold everything there fellas. Sam Smith Nut Brown is one heckuva great beer.

Well it sounds like I started a thread that has drawn some serious Sam smith fans.... Many varieties to love

that's a nice looking stout!

I like Poet, brewed by New Holland.  Some good stuff.

No negatives to say about Sam Smiths, either.  Was just looking for some at Target.  This time last year they had a nice box set - two bottles and a glass for like $15 or so. Couldn't find it this year.

As for brewing one, toasting the oats is supposed to be the thing.  I've never done it, but always plan to.

Your beer looks delicious and your recipe sounds great. Have you ever mashed it higher and if so, what was the beer like. I'm brewing an OS right after Christmas.

Thanks for posting!
