I stopped in at the Boston Beer Company in Boston, Massachusetts for the brewery tour.  I completely recommend this tour.  Our tour guide, Amanda, was really funny and very informative.  She went through the entire brewing process and showed us the research brewery.  The facility in Boston is now only for research and development.  The production brewing is now done elsewhere.  And, of course, at the end of the tour we sampled Sam Adams Boston Lager and Summer Ale.  We all know the trademark taste of Sam Adams Boston Lager.  For many folks this was the Renaissance of beer back in the day.
