Angry Orchard has Arrived

While Sam Adams reported trouble keeping up with demand for their beers, they have made room to produce a new product, Angry Orchard.  The hard cider is produced out of the Cincinnati, Ohio location and available in three varieties:  Apple Ginger, Traditional Dry and Crisp Apple.

Sam Adams’ quarterly report indicated they are close to peak capacity and working to resolve the issue.  A contract brewery has not been named.  Overall, sales of Boston Lager and Sam Adams light are down, a contrast to the growing sales of the seasonal brews.  Consumers are also exploring the different beers Sam Adams has to offer as 22% of the case sales were the ‘variety pack’.
