Mayor Sam Adams and Peter Zuckerman beer-making kit is just like the one above at Home Brew Exchange.

SUDS & THE CITY: With a name like that? Well, it was bound to happen.

Portland Mayor Sam Adams is making his own beer.

That's right, the Mayor with the same name as that famous Boston-based beer, and his partner, author Peter Zuckerman, have been thoroughly enjoying the fruits of their home-brew making labor over the summer.

According to Zuckerman they picked up all their beer-making supplies at a North Portland's Home Brew Exchange (just like the one above) and have set up brewing operations in both Adams and Zuckerman's homes.

"The first batch was a Pilsner," says Zuckerman. "We wanted to name it after Sam's chicken, Alma, and call it "Alma Ale" but we never settled on a name." Zuckerman says it was also much easier to make than they originally thought. "And it tasted a lot better than we thought it would too," he says.
