Samuel Adams
Commercial Brewery
in Boston,
Massachusetts,
United States 🇺🇸
Owned by
The Boston Beer Company
Associated with 4 Venues
Established in 1984
Initially, Koch rented excess capacity and brewed the beer at the Pittsburgh Brewing Company. As sales increased Koch developed other contract arrangements at various brewing facilities with excess capacity. To reduce reliance on contract brewing Cincinnati's Hudepohl-Schoenling brewery was purchased in early 1997).
In 2007, the Boston Beer Company purchased the former F. & M. Schaefer Brewing Company brewery in Breinigsville, Pennsylvania. By 2012, the Company was producing two-thirds of all its beer at the Breinigsville facility, and it has increased brewing capacity there. The Boston Beer Company also has a small R&D brewery located in Boston (Jamaica Plain), Massachusetts, where public tours and beer tastings are offered.

Backlog May 2011. Reddish amber body under a dense off-white head. Aroma has malt, bitter oranges and some ginger. Taste is malty with caramel, spices like ginger, slightly fruity and moderate bitterness. Medium body with average aftertaste. Nice, slightly different winter brew without pushing the limits.
