I ask because I don't like the way Sam Adams tastes, so I'd like to avoid whatever it is. Is it the hops they use?
TIA

Which Sam Adams, They make many different beers.
What makes it taste the way it tastes? Well, that would be the recipe and the method they use to brew it.
If you don't like it don't drink it. Sam Adams is one of my favorite breweries.
Maybe you can email them for the ingredients.
The chance that you would make a beer that tastes like Sam Adams is pretty slim unless you were to actually try to make it.
Just the regular brew. I'm guessing it's either the yeast used or the hops. It has a rusty metallic bite at the end that I just hate.
You need to be a bit more specific than that. Boston Ale, Boston Lager, etc.?
Personally, when I was buying beer, the Boston Ale was often a crap shoot to get something that didn't have a bitter finish to it. The Boston Lager finished cleaner. Still, I've not bought either (for home) in about two years, since I've been brewing. If I'm out, and that's the best choice, I'll have to decide between that and soda. Normally, the soda wins.
Sorry, the Boston Lager. For a good while it was their only product offered out here in the hinterlands.

Probably because that's the only recipe that they could get people to stomach, and want more of.
I was never really satisfied with what Sam Adams sells. It's one of the reasons why I've gone as far as I have into brewing my own.
My English brown ale is going on tap today. :rockin: I just need to clean the line that my honey ale was on (kicked last night).
Brew more and you'll get even better. Depending on where you're getting your recipes, you could look into better sources. I've been brewing my own recipes since my third batch.
I blame whoever brewed it for the way it tastes.
Go for the Irish Red! You'll love it as variation from the English Brown it sounds like you've been drinking.
