At a restaurant recently I had been drinking Sam Adams Boston Lager. I ordered another beer, and was brought their Summer Ale. I decided to try it, and was impressed with it as I don't generally care a whole for wheat beers.
Looking at Sam Adam's site it states that they use Grains of Paradise. I can't seem to find it in either of the places I buy from. Is there another name for it? What is it?
I sent Sam Adam's an email asking for more info on that beer as it states on their site that it has a mere 7 IBU's, which seems like a typo to me. I felt it had a good hop presence, and a friend claimed it had 30 something IBU's. 7 isn't even to style...
I'd like to make something like this next time I make a wheat beer.
