Did anyone see the commercial to make your own beer and hand it in to the contest Sam Adams is haveing and winner gets there own lable sold under Sam Adams?

Looks cool.

I think there is something on there site.I should have looked before posting this but its hard to surf and post on an ipaq in the pool with a glass of scotch and a gar'.
I will find it later.
 
Hmmmmm. Sounds like a good opportunity for a homebrewer.

My Designer-sense is tingling though. Sounds an aweful lot like 'spec-work' to me.

Does Sam Adams get to keep the recipes for all the submissions?
 
May 24, 2006 - (Probrewer.com) - Boston Beer Co. plans to revive its homebrew-influenced LongShot beers.

The brewers of Samuel Adams beers announced a new contest for homebrewers, with the winners receiving a trip to the Great American Beer Festival and a chance to have their recipe brewed and distributed by Samuel Adams.

"Samuel Adams is excited to give homebrewers and beer lovers the opportunity to express their passion and creativity for beer by continuing the tradition of the Samuel Adams American Homebrew Contest," said founder Jim Koch. The company held similar contests in the 1990s, releasing several homebrew recipes in the LongShot line, including a coffee molasses stout and a beer flavored with hazelnut.

Here's how it works:

- Beers must be submitted between Aug. 1 and 18.

- A panel of experts will choose five recipes to advance to the finals held during the 25th GABF (Sept. 28-30), with the five finalists awarded a trip to the festival, where two winning recipes will be announced.

- Boston Beer will release six-packs of LongShot in February 2007 containing two bottles of each of the winning homebrewed beers, plus two bottles of the recipe from a company-wide contest.

Since 2001, Samuel Adams has held an annual contest to find the best employee homebrew. This year three employee finalists will also attend the GABF, and one of their recipes will be chosen by festival attendees to be included in the LongShot six pack.

Entry information is available at the Samuel Adams website http://www.samueladams.com.

Still sounds interesting.
 
Back in the day when, I brewed and drank way to much, I was semi famous for a Honey-Lime Lager that I created. Since I no longer brew or drink, I would like to pass the recipe on to a home brewer on the CP board with the minor stipulation you cut me in for any money or residuals if the recipe wins!
 
someone please help SAM ADAMS make a good tasting beer! thanks! :cool:

I used to think the samething until I had there summer ale which is light,creamy and smooth and does not give me agada or upset my ulcers! ;)


It is the closest to a craft beer,(which is all I drink),that I have ever tasted,mind you I only had 4 types of Sam Adams beer.


I am a craft beer fanatic,the more alcohol the better,I love high AVB beer.
