Sam Adams shares hops with smaller breweries

Boston Beer founder Jim Koch revealed a plan Thursday to supply smaller breweries with 10 tons of hops they might not otherwise have access to.

“. . . we looked at our own hops supplies at Boston Beer and decided we could share some of our hops with other craft brewers who are struggling to get hops this year.”

Details about the offer have been posted at the Samuel Adams website – look for “Hop-Sharing Program.”
