Every year we welcome thousands of beer drinkers to our Boston Brewery, where they learn about the history of Samuel Adams, beer ingredients and the brewing process, and of course – enjoy some beers. You’ve likely taken our classic tour – but we have recently added a variety of new tour experiences that will allow you to see a whole other side of Samuel Adams.

Learn more about our specialty tours:

Beyond the Brewhouse Tour

Not open to the public, our Barrel Room is a fermentation cellar that serves as the heart of our innovation and experimentation of Belgian style beers at the Boston Brewery. Most importantly, it is the home to three 130bbl Hungarian oak tuns that age our specialty beer, Kosmic Mother Funk.

The tour explores a wide range of Belgian style beers, and what brings these and other exclusive specialty beers to life. You’ll learn professional appraising techniques for high end beers and sample a variety of barrel aged beers.

This tour is available on Mondays at 1PM and 6PM, as well as Thursdays and Fridays at 1PM.

The Bier Keller: Samuel Adams Barrel Aged Experience

Also not open to the public, our Bier Keller is the inner sanctum of our non-sour barrel aged beers at Samuel Adams.

This tour brings together two age-old pleasures: beer and cheese. As you learn about our barrel aging history and process, you’ll be served three exclusive Brewery-only barrel aged beers and pair them with delicious local cheese.

This tour is available on Fridays at 3:30PM and Saturdays at 11AM and 5PM.
