The story behind it
Founded by Jim Koch in Boston in 1984, the Boston Beer Company helped pioneer the American craft beer movement. Koch named the flagship lager after Samuel Adams, an American revolutionary leader who inherited a brewing tradition.
First brewed in 1984, this recipe was adapted from a historic 1870s family formula created by Louis Koch. It is brewed in a traditional brewhouse using double decoction mashing and the time-honored process of krausening.
