Samuel Adams Boston Brewery – The Boston Beer Company

About

The Samuel Adams Boston Brewery in Jamaica Plain is where the brand got its start, and it now houses the company’s innovation projects. Named for the Revolutionary leader who was also a brewer, the brewery helped put American craft brewing on the map in the mid-1980s. Visitors can book a tour with guided tastings and exclusive access to the brewhouse, then try the newest styles in the taproom and beer garden.

Jamaica Plain has a long history as a brewing neighborhood, and in the 1980s this site was Samuel Adams’ only production facility. Today it functions as a research and development brewhouse, so the draft menu keeps rotating with experimental beers and limited releases alongside classics like Boston Lager. A visit offers a chance to taste recipes that are still being developed and tested by the brewers.
