Sam Adams Boston Brewery
About
The Samuel Adams Boston Brewery in Jamaica Plain is the original home of Samuel Adams beer and today serves as the company’s research and development brewhouse. Visitors can take a guided tour with tastings, then settle into the taproom or beer garden, where the draft list rotates through experimental R&D beers and limited releases alongside the familiar classics. It is a working brewery in a neighborhood with a long history of brewing.
In the 1980s, the Jamaica Plain site was Samuel Adams’ only production facility, and it remains central to the story of American craft beer. The Boston Beer Company, founded by Jim Koch in 1984, now brews most of its volume elsewhere, while the Boston brewery focuses on testing new styles. The brewery also hosts a calendar of public events and can tailor private events for groups.
