Fit Turkey Wrap

If possible, chill the glass and beer bottle/tap line beforehand. The beer should be cold but not frozen (stored at roughly 38–45°F / 3–7°C). A lightly chilled glass improves head retention and aroma.

Chill glass and beer

Ensure the glass is clean and free from detergent residue or oils — these break foam and mute aroma. If needed, rinse quickly with cold water and discard excess.

Inspect glassware

If serving from a bottle, open it carefully to avoid excessive foaming. If drawing from draft, ensure the faucet and lines are clean and at proper pressure for best pour.

Open or activate draft

Hold the chilled 16 oz glass at a 45-degree angle. Begin pouring the Samuel Adams Seasonal gently down the side of the glass, aiming midway down the slope. Pour until the glass is about three-quarters full.

Tilt and pour

When the glass is three-quarters full, straighten it to vertical and pour down the center to produce a 1–1.5 inch (2.5–4 cm) head. Adjust pour speed to achieve a steady, creamy head without overflowing.

Straighten and top

If desired, present a lemon or orange wedge alongside the glass or place it on the rim. Note: many beer purists prefer no garnish so the beer's seasonal aroma and flavor remain unaltered.

Add garnish (optional)

Serve immediately at 38–45°F (3–7°C). Encourage patrons to inhale the aromas before taking the first sip to appreciate the seasonal hops, malt, or adjunct characteristics.
