Boston’s own Samuel Adams Brew

Boston is home to Samuel Adams brewing company, a well known beer company rich with Boston history. This beer comes from the founder Jim Koch, who found the recipe in the early 1980s from his great great grandfather. Samuel Adams is also notably named after the Samuel Adams, one of the founding fathers of this country, who was from Boston Massachusetts. This beer company is apart of Boston, the taste as well, people from all over the US like it but people from Boston and New England, are proud of it. The company does much more though than sell a nice lager and IPA, they also do tours and events and are involved with the community. Taking a tour of the brewery while in Boston is definitely something I would take note of because of the history of the company and the city coexisting together.
