The story behind it

The maker

The Boston Beer Company was founded by Jim Koch in 1984, starting with his great-great-grandfather’s recipe for Samuel Adams Boston Lager. The brewery helped spark the American craft beer revolution, focusing on high-quality ingredients and traditional brewing techniques.

How it is made

Boston Ale was originally brewed to celebrate the opening of the Boston Beer Company's Jamaica Plain brewery in 1997. It is fermented at cooler temperatures to create a smoother, cleaner profile that acts as a bridge between traditional ales and lagers.

From Boston, Massachusetts, USA
