Tours were given every hour, we arrived at 10:45 (4 adults) and the next tour was at 11:15 so we explored the gift shop. Prices were reasonable ($10 t-shirts). The tour was short and it really wasn't what I was expecting. I always thought that Sam Adams beer mainly came from Boston but I'm wrong. This working brewery is very... more

A great beer tasting at the end highlighted our excellent tour of the Sam Adams facility (though it's not the one making the beer you're buying in the stores). The gift shop has all sorts of goodies to take with you. more

Pretty decent tour. They explain the brew process briefly and take you through a portion of the actual brewery with the tanks they use. You even have the opportunity to taste some of the materials they use in the brew process. The tasting is pretty good at the end with a sampling of three different beers and you get to... more

We took the metro and walked 2 blocks to the brewery. You get a beet label for a ticket and can contribute a donation of your choosing which goes to local charity. We waited a half hour for our tour and during the wait you can look in the store, send people postcards and just look around. The tour was... more

I've been to Boston a few times and never thought about going on the Brewery Tour. I'm glad I finally went! The tour is short...about 20-30 minutes. It doesn't go into a lot of detail and the brewery is small, but it is interesting to see. Most of the tour is spent in the tasting room where you get to... more
