 PROFILE
The Boston Beer Company is biggest among craft brewers, but it's not exactly dethroning the king of beers or making Anheuser-Busch, Miller Brewing, and Coors sweat silver bullets. Boston Beer produces about 18 seasonal and year-round varieties of craft-brewed beers at its own Boston and Cincinnati breweries, as well as through contracts with three others across the country. It sells nearly 1.2 million barrels of lager a year (such as its flagship Samuel Adams Boston Lager), as well as ales (Oregon Original, Samuel Adams brands), HardCore brand cider, and Twisted Tea malt beverage nationwide. The company distributes its brews internationally. Chairman James Koch owns about 33% of the company.
