Beer Review - Sam Adams - Black Lager

a-pop asked: I read your answer to the question on offal, and if you want to try something great, go for anticucho de corazon (translation = beef heart on a skewer). It's a Peruvian specialty, and it's delicious.

Greg Mudge, the owner, has made it his goal to make sure everything served in his...
