PROJECT OVERVIEW
The Boston Beer Company was first founded in 1984 by Jim Koch, who brewed a recipe for his great-great grandfather's beer that Jim named Samuel Adams Boston Lager. Hoping to change what drinkers thought of beer, the first cases of Samuel Adams Boston Lager were sold in Boston on Patriot's Day in 1985. Today, Boston Beer’s Samuel Adams brand is recognized as one of the largest and most respected craft beer brands. The company’s portfolio of brands also now includes Truly Hard Seltzer, Twisted Tea, Angry Orchard Hard Cider, Dogfish Head Brewery, as well as other craft beer brands such as Angel City Brewery and Coney Island Brewing.
Following the success of the first office build-out, Boston Beer enlisted Corderman & Company’s services to completely remodel the existing workspace in the Boston Design Center. The four-phase, 50,000 SF project consisted of a new reception area, offices, workstations, conference rooms, and an integral bar that will be used daily by employees. The new 250-person office displays a variety of artworks by local artists, eclectic furnishings, and architecture created from reclaimed brewing materials, creating a bold and inviting new hub.
