The Future is FemAle

At Sam Adams, we celebrate International Women’s Day and Women’s Month by raising a pint to women in the beer industry. Along with breweries all around the US, we participate in the Pink Boots Society Collaboration Brew Day, with 2025 marking our 8th annual brew.

A champion within the alcohol industry, the Pink Boots Society’s mission is to “assist, inspire, and encourage the professional development and education of women and non-binary individuals.” They do this through funding scholarships, sharing resources, and cultivating relationships. We’re proud to be a member of the Boston Chapter and support the national organization!

For 2025, we continue to rally behind the beer name The Future Is FemAle for our Pink Boots Brew while changing up the recipe to be a twist on a mimosa-inspired beer. A team of women from our Boston Brewery and Downtown Taproom were reminiscing on favorite brews from over the years when this brut-style IPA recipe came up in conversation from 2020. To make sure we were continuing to innovate (and not repeat any history), we settled on changing up the fruit and ensuring it complemented this year’s Pink Boots hop blend from Yakima Chief. Our end result features locally sourced cranberries to create a dry, bubbly and celebratory brew.

Join us in sharing a pint of this brew starting on International Women’s Day, March 8th that will be available in both draft and cans to go with a portion of the proceeds from this beer being donated back to the Pink Boots Society.* The Boston Brewery will be celebrating on 3/8 with a music performance by female musicians Adeline Um. Over at the Downtown Taproom, we’ll be highlighting this brew alongside our The Lodge Apres-Ski House Party with an all female DJ lineup on Saturday 3/22.

* In March and April, Samuel Adams will donate $3,000 to the Pink Boots Society. Donations are from Samuel Adams to the Pink Boots Society. The Pinks Boots Society is a Section 501(c)(3) charitable organization under U.S. law. For more information on the Pink Boots Society, please visit pinkbootssociety.org.
