The story behind it

The maker

Founded in 1984 by Jim Koch, the Boston Beer Company helped ignite the American craft beer revolution with its flagship Boston Lager. Named after the revolutionary patriot, the brand has spent decades championing traditional brewing techniques while pioneering experimental seasonal styles.

How it is made

Brewed in the heart of Boston, this seasonal classic is inspired by the hearty, warming lagers of Bavaria. The brewhouse utilizes traditional decoction mashing to build a rich, complex malt base before infusing festive holiday spices.
