BOSTON (WBZ NewsRadio) — The new Sam Adams Tap Room located across from Faneuil Hall is open.
Thursday's unveiling comes two years after the project to build the Tap Room, located not far from the bronze statue of the real Samuel Adams, initially began.

Boston Beer Company owner Jim Koch had been looking for a spot in the city for years. Previously, the brewery had a small room at its Jamaica Plain brewery where it served its brews, including Sam Adams beer.
The brewery has been met with criticism, however. Earlier this summer, a group of nearby Boston bars and restaurants pulled Samuel Adams beers from their menu, claiming the presence of the Tap Room hurt their business.
