Free Beer Tours

Major Boston brewery Sam Adams, which bears the name of the illustrious statesman and Founding Father Samuel Adams, provides free tours. They occur midafternoon and depart every 45 minutes. You will get to see the brewery in action during this tour. Your tour guide will make an effort to keep your group's interest by discussing Sam Adams' revolutionary introduction of the idea of labeling beer with a "born on" date and by letting you taste ingredients like Hallertau hops. He or she will also share the Seven Wonders of Sam, which are taste, aroma, complexity, body, smoothness, finish, and balance.

Once crowded inside the tasting room, you'll get the chance to try a variety of goods produced by the Boston Beer Company, which also produces Twisted Tea Hard Iced Tea and Angry Orchard Hard Cider in addition to the Sam Adams line of beers, which includes the iconic Samuel Adams Boston Lager.

Although tours are free, a $2 donation per person is requested, and all funds raised are given to regional charities. All ages are welcome on the tour, but to sample the beer, you must be 21 and have identification. You shouldn't worry if you're under 21. You can still visit and discover the brewery's past and how their beer is made. However, you can’t sample it at the end.
