To commemorate the 10th anniversary of Samuel Adams Utopias beer, the company has unveiled its batch that has been aged in bourbon casks.
The company, which is touted as creating the most expensive beer, prides itself on creating quality and hand-crafted beer. Wanting to alter the perception of what beer drinkers thought beer could be all while challenging his craft brewer and founder, Jim Koch unveiled its line of Utopias back in 2002. With a complex flavor palette, the company as well as the beer truly sets itself apart from any other beer available on the market.
Only 15,000 bottles were made of the limited edition Samuel Adams Utopias beer, which is available at a cost of $190/each.
