Dear Dave:

I am very excited to extend to you this offer, outlining our proposal and conditions for you to
join The Boston Beer Company, Inc. (the “Company”) in the role of President & Chief Executive
Officer, on the terms specified below. Your employment under this offer is conditioned on entry
into an Executive Employee Restrictive Covenant Agreement, a copy of which is attached as
Attachment 1 (“your Restrictive Covenant Agreement”).

Your employment will be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this offer, which override
anything discussed during your interview process:

	 	•	 	Position. Your position will be President and Chief Executive
Officer of The Boston Beer Company, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation, and President of
each of the Company’s subsidiaries, namely Boston Brewing Company, Inc.; Boston Beer
Corporation; American Craft Brewery, LLC; SABC Realty, Ltd.; Providence Street
Associates, LLC; Angry Orchard Cider Company, LLC; A&S Brewing Collaborative, LLC;
Boston Beer Corporation Canada, Inc.; TM on Hold LLC; Lazy River Cider Co., LLC; and
Hard Seltzer Beverage Company LLC. As noted below, your employment will be as an
“at-will” employee, subject to termination at any time by the Board, and will be
subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this offer.

	 	•	 	Duties and Required Commitments. In your capacity as President
and CEO, you will perform duties and responsibilities that are commensurate with that
position and such other duties commensurate with such position as may be assigned to
you from time to time by the Board. You will report directly to the Board. You will
also serve as a member of the Board, as a Class B Director, for no additional
compensation. You agree to devote your full business time, attention, and best efforts
to the performance of your duties and to the furtherance of the Company’s interests.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this offer shall preclude you from devoting
reasonable periods of time to charitable and community activities, managing personal
investment assets, and, subject to Board approval, serving on boards of other companies
(public or private) not in competition with the Company, provided that none of these
activities interferes with the performance of your duties hereunder or creates a
conflict of interest. In addition, as more fully reflected in your Restrictive
Covenant Agreement, we require that you undertake not to compete with the Company for a
period of time following the termination of your employment.

	 	•	 	Location. Your principal place of employment will be at our
corporate headquarters in Boston, Massachusetts, subject to business travel as needed
to properly fulfill your employment duties and responsibilities. We will require you
to relocate to Boston within six (6) months of your start date, and to be available to
work at our headquarters on a full-time basis during the time period prior to
relocation.

	 	•	 	Anticipated Start Date. Subject to satisfaction of all of the
conditions described in this offer, this offer is based on an anticipated start date of
Monday, April 2, 2018.

	 	•	 	Base Annual Salary. Your base salary will be at the annual rate
of Seven Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars ($750,000), payable in bi-weekly
installments, subject to applicable payroll and withholding taxes.

	 	•	 	Signing Bonus. Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) [One Million Six
Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,600,000) in the event you vest in the equity award from
your current employer which is scheduled to vest in February 2018], subject to
applicable payroll and withholding taxes, payable in one installment in your first
paycheck after you commence fulltime employment.

	 	•	 	You agree to repay the entire signing bonus if you voluntarily
terminate your employment with the Company (other than for Good Reason, as
defined below) prior to the first anniversary of your start date.

	 	•	 	If you voluntarily terminate your employment with the Company
(other than for Good Reason) on or after the first anniversary of your start
date, but prior to the second anniversary of your start date, you agree to repay
fifty percent (50%) of your signing bonus.

	 	•	 	Annual Bonus. You will be eligible for an annual bonus for the
Company’s performance in Fiscal Year 2018, payable in Q1 2019, and for annual bonuses
in subsequent years. Bonus opportunities and performance criteria are set annually by
the Compensation Committee of the Board. The performance criteria for Fiscal Year 2018
will be as approved by the Compensation Committee at its December 2017 meeting. Your
annual bonus will be wholly contingent on the Company’s performance against these
criteria. You must be employed on December 31 of the applicable year to receive the
bonus. Your bonus potential (target bonus) for Fiscal Year 2019 and subsequent years
will be not less than 100% of your earned base salary if the Company hits its target
expectations. For Fiscal Year 2018, your target bonus will be 100% of your full-year
base annual salary and you will be eligible to receive a full-year (not prorated)
bonus. As you are aware, under the Company’s current bonus program, Executive
Officers are eligible for payout of up to two-and-a-half times (2.5x) their bonus
potential in the event that the Company’s performance significantly exceeds the target
expectations of the Company- wide goals.

	 	•	 	Time vested Restricted Stock Grants. You will be granted, on the
first day of the open trading window next occurring after the date on which your
employment commences, two restricted stock grants of shares (“Shares”) of the Company’s
Class A Common Stock (NYSE:SAM), as follows:

The first grant will be for Shares having an accounting value of Seven Million
Seven Hundred Fifty Dollars ($7,750,000), which will vest in equal annual
installments in arrears over the three year period commencing with your
employment start date (“your start date”).

The second grant will be for Shares having an accounting value of Six Million
Dollars ($6,000,000) which will vest on the following schedule:

50% shall vest on the second anniversary of your start date;

25% shall vest on the third anniversary of your start date;

25% shall vest on the fourth anniversary of your start date.

The unvested portion of both grants will vest immediately, in the event of your
death, disability or termination without Cause (which shall also include your
resignation for Good Reason), or a Change in Control. There will, however, be no
accelerated vesting if you depart your position voluntarily without Good Reason. Both
grants will be subject to the applicable requirements of the Company’s Employee
Equity Incentive Plan, as amended and in effect as of January 1, 2018.

For purposes of this offer, the terms “Cause”, “Good Reason” and “Change in Control”
shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them on Attachment 2.

	 	•	 	Annual Long Term Incentive (LTI) Grant. Subject to formal
Compensation Committee and Board approval, you will be granted annually a combination
of performance-based Options and/or RSUs in similar proportion and vesting schedule as
for the Leadership team with an accounting value of not less than Two Million Dollars
($2,000,000). Note: LTI Equity awards for Executive Officers are generally granted
effective January 1 each year and are generally based on Company performance, but may
also be time-based in certain circumstances. Your first grant will be made at the same
time as the restricted stock grants referenced above and will be in similar proportion
and vesting schedule as the January 1, 2018 grants made to the Leadership team. Your
next grant will be effective January 1, 2019. Please note that the CEO position is not
eligible for the Company’s Investment Share Program, which allows other employees to
buy shares of Company stock at a discount based on tenure with the Company.

	 	•	 	Performance and Compensation Review. Your performance will be
formally reviewed on an annual basis by the independent members of the Board, and any
adjustment to compensation will require approval of the Compensation Committee.

Attachment 1

The Boston Beer Company, Inc.

Executive Employee Restrictive Covenant Agreement

This Executive Employee Restrictive Covenant Agreement is being entered into by and between
The Boston Beer Company, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation with its principal place of business at
One Design Center Place, Suite 850, Massachusetts 02210, for itself and on behalf of all of its
subsidiaries and affiliates, including but not limited to Boston Beer Corporation, American Craft
Brewery LLC, and A&S Brewing Collaborative LLC (collectively, the “Company”), on the one hand, and
David A. Burwick, who is joining the Company as its President and Chief Executive Officer (“you”),
on the other, effective as of the date (the “Effective Date”) on which you so join the Company, in
accordance with the letter agreement dated January 23, 2018, entered into between you and the
Company (the “Offer Letter”), which was ratified and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors
on February 14, 2018.

The Company is engaged in the business of producing and selling high quality craft beers, hard
ciders and flavored malt beverages (the “Products”), which are sold throughout the United States
and in some other countries (the “Territory”). Many of the formulas, recipes, processes,
techniques, methods and technology used by the Company to produce, market and sell the Products are
proprietary and valuable assets of the Company. As the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, you
will have access to the valuable Proprietary Information of the Company (as defined below), in
order to perform your duties for the Company. To protect this valuable Proprietary Information and
the goodwill that the Company has built with its customers, it is necessary to set forth in this
Agreement certain restrictions on the use and/or disclosure of this Proprietary Information and
your trading upon the Company’s goodwill, and thus to restrict your post-employment, competitive
activities after you leave the Company’s employ. That is the purpose of this Agreement.

In consideration of the Company’s commitments to you under the Offer Letter, and for other
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, you
hereby agree with the Company as follows:

1. Proprietary Information. You hereby acknowledge that the techniques, recipes,
formulas, programs, processes, methods, technology, designs and production, distribution, business
and marketing plans, business methods and manuals, sales techniques and strategies, financial data,
training methods and materials, pricing programs, customer information, contracts or other
arrangements, and any other information of value to the Company that is not generally known to the
public or the Company’s competitors (collectively, “Proprietary Information”), including any such
information developed by you during the course of your employment with the Company, are of a
confidential and secret character, of great value and propriety to the Company. The Company shall
give or continue to give you access to the foregoing categories of Proprietary Information as
appropriate and necessary to your job duties, so long as you continue to provide services to the
Company, and shall permit you to work thereon and become familiar therewith to whatever extent the
Company in its sole discretion determines. You agree that, without the prior written consent of
the Company, you will not, during your employment with the Company or at any time thereafter,
except in the performance of your duties for the Company, directly or indirectly, divulge to anyone
or use to your benefit or to the benefit of any other person or entity, any Proprietary
Information, unless such Proprietary Information shall be in the public domain in a reasonably
integrated form through no fault of you. You further agree (i) to take all reasonable precautions
to protect from loss or disclosure all documents supplied to you by the Company and all documents,
notebooks, materials and other data relating to any work performed by you or others relating to or
containing the Proprietary Information, (ii) not to make any copies of any of these documents,
notebooks, materials and data, without the prior written permission of theCompany, and
(iii) upon termination for whatever reason of your employment with the Company, to deliver these
documents, notebooks, materials and data forthwith to the Company, and to delete any copies of
electronic information that may remain in your possession after the provision of copies thereof to
the Company. Proprietary Information includes information in hard copy and electronic formats.
The non-use and non-disclosure restrictions set forth herein apply to any and all forms of
information transmittal, including transmittal through any and all forms of social media.

2. Covenant Not-to-Compete.

(a) During the period commencing on the Effective Date and continuing until the expiration of
three (3) years you cease to be an employee of the Company (the “Restriction Period”), you will
not, without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent the Company may grant or
withhold in its sole discretion, except that the Company will not unreasonably withhold or delay
such consent with respect to the Carve-Out Activities set forth below, provided you reaffirm at the
time your obligations under Section 1 of this Agreement, directly or indirectly, for your own
account or the account of others, as an employee, consultant, partner, officer, director or
stockholder (other than a holder of less than five percent (5%) of the issued and outstanding stock
or other equity securities of an issuer whose securities are publicly traded), or in any other
capacity, provide services to any person or business engaged in the manufacture and distribution of
beverage alcohol in the Territory, whether or not such person or business competes directly with
the Company.

(b) Investing in or providing services to the following businesses shall constitute the
“Carve-Out Activities” for which the Company will not unreasonably withhold or delay its consent:

(i) Sellers of beverage alcohol at retail, including bars and taverns, restaurants and hotels,
and other sellers of beverage alcohol for on-premise consumption and, for purpose of clarity,
including an independent “brew pub” or other producer of malt beverages and/or hard ciders where
75% or more of its production is consumed on its own premises and none of its investors,
consultants or licensors is otherwise a manufacturer of malt beverages and/or hard ciders;

(ii) Manufacturers of beverage alcohol products whose only products are spirits or wine;
provided that, if you become involved in any fashion with such an entity and subsequently become
aware that such entity has begun internal discussions concerning engaging in the manufacture or
distribution of any beers, hard ciders or flavored malt beverages, you will refrain from
participating in any such discussions and promptly inform the Company of the fact that such
internal discussions have begun, and your continued service at or investment in such entity shall
require the Company’s written approval;

(iii) Businesses operating solely outside of the United States, provided any such business in
which you might propose to invest or to which you might propose to provide services confirms to the
Company that it has no intention or plans to enter the United States market with any beers, hard
ciders or flavored malt beverages.

You acknowledge that the foregoing restrictions are fair and reasonable, given your position with
the Company, and that your involvement in any proscribed activity would result in, or constitute a
substantial risk of, damage or injury to the legitimate business interests of the Company. The
restriction set forth in this Section (and in paragraph 1) shall apply regardless of the reason for
your departure from the Company, and regardless of whether you or the Company initiated such
departure; provided that the Company provides you with all of the benefits and payments to which
you are entitled under the Offer Letter. You acknowledge that you have read and you understand
this provision, and that you have agreed to it knowingly and voluntarily, in order to obtain the
benefits provided to you by the Company.

3. Non-Solicitation of Employees. You also agree that, during the Restriction Period,
you will not, directly or indirectly, solicit, induce, persuade or attempt to solicit, induce,
persuade, or assist any third party in the solicitation, inducement, or persuasion of, any person
who is an employee of the Company when the initial contact is made to leave the employ of the
Company, or in any other manner hire or assist in the hiring of any Company employee away from the
Company.

4. Remedy for Breach. You expressly recognize that any breach or threatened breach of
this Agreement by you will result in irreparable injury to the Company and agree that, in addition
to any other rights or remedies which the Company may have, the Company shall be entitled, if it so
elects, to institute and prosecute proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction either in law
or in equity, to obtain damages for any breach of this Agreement; to enforce the specific
performance of this Agreement by you; and to enjoin you from activities in violation of this
Agreement. In any such action, the Company shall be entitled to recover the costs and attorney’s
fees incurred by it in such action.

5. Entire Agreement; Modification. This instrument and the Offer Letter contain the
entire agreement between the Company and you with respect to the subject matter contained herein,
superseding any and all prior agreements that restrict your activities while you are an employee of
the Company and thereafter, and may be altered, amended or superseded only by an agreement in
writing, signed by both parties. No action or course of conduct shall constitute a waiver of any
of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, unless such waiver is specified in writing, and then
only to the extent so specified. A waiver of any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement on
one occasion shall not constitute a waiver of the other terms and conditions of this Agreement or
of such terms and conditions on any other occasion.

6. Severability. You and the Company hereby expressly agree that the provisions of
this Agreement are severable and, in the event that any court of competent jurisdiction shall
determine that any provision or covenant herein contained is overbroad or invalid, in whole or in
part, in any manner, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect and any such
provision or covenant shall nevertheless be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by such
Court.

7. Binding Effect; Benefit. This Agreement shall be binding upon you and upon you and
your administrators, executors, heirs, successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the
Company and its affiliates and subsidiaries and its and their respective successors and assigns.

8. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of
which shall be considered and have the force and effect of an original.

9. Governing Law. The validity, interpretation and performance of this Agreement
shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of The Commonwealth of
Massachusetts. Any dispute between you and the Company shall be litigated exclusively in the state
or federal courts of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, to whose jurisdiction you hereby agree to
submit. This Agreement shall be considered a sealed instrument under Massachusetts law.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Agreement to be duly executed on its behalf
and the undersigned have hereunto set their hands and seals in Boston, Massachusetts, all as of the
date set forth below.

Attachment 2

Cause:

The Company shall have the right to terminate your employment at any time for “Cause”, if and
only if:

	 	(i)	 	You are convicted of, or plead guilty or nolo contendere to, a
felony;

(ii) You willfully and continuously fail to perform substantially your material duties to the
Company as set forth in this letter following written notice from the Company specifying such
failure and a period of thirty (30) business days within which to cure such failure. For the
avoidance of doubt, the Company acknowledges that the phrase “fail to perform substantially your
material duties” is not intended to include any failure to obtain certain objective or subjective
results, if you have in good faith performed the duties validly assigned to you;

(iii) You willfully commit any material fraud, material embezzlement or other material act of
intentional dishonesty against which materially harms the Company, or shall attempt to profit from
any transaction in which the Company is a participant and in which you have an undisclosed interest
adverse to the Company; or

(iv) You willfully and materially violate any of your commitments under your Executive
Employee Restrictive Covenant Agreement, which causes material harm to the Company and such
violation is either not curable or you fail to cure it within ten (10) business days after notice
from the Company specifying such violation.

No act or failure to act by you shall be considered “willful” unless it is done, or omitted to
be done, by you in bad faith or without your reasonable belief that your action or omission was in
the best interest of the Company. In determining whether your acts or failures to act are willful,
relevant factors shall include whether you were operating in good faith at the direction of the
Board or upon the advice of counsel for the Company.

No termination for Cause shall be effective unless and until there shall have been delivered
to you a copy of a resolution to be duly adopted by a majority of the members of the Board, at a
meeting of the Board called and held for such purpose (after reasonable notice is provided to you
and you are provided an opportunity to be heard before the Board), finding that, in the good faith
opinion of the Board, you are guilty of conduct described in the foregoing provisions.

Good Reason:

For purposes of the Offer, the term “Good Reason” shall mean only that one or more of the following
has occurred or is proposed to take effect and the matter has not been resolved to your reasonable
satisfaction within thirty (30) days after bringing the matter to the attention of the Board, it
being understood that any issue that you might assert as the basis for a Good Reason termination
must be brought to the Board within ninety (90) days of your first becoming aware of the matter:

	 	(i)	 	A material reduction in your annual salary, other than as part of a comparable,
proportionate reduction in base compensation of all of the Company’s Named Executive
Officers;

	 	(ii)	 	A change in your reporting relationship, such that you no longer report
directly to the Board, as a whole;

	 	(iii)	 	A material diminution in the scope of your authority, such that the proposed
remaining authority would reasonably be seen as inconsistent with the position of chief
executive officer; or

	 	(iv)	 	A material breach by the Company of its obligations set forth in the Offer,
including, but not limited to, the failure to pay or provide the compensation and
benefits set forth therein.

Change in Control:

“Change in Control” means that C. James Koch and/or members of his family cease to
control a majority of the Company’s issued and outstanding Class B Common Stock.
