BOSTON, Mass — Surreal.
That was the first word out of New England Patriots legend Julian Edelman’s mouth when the wide receiver spoke exclusively with Patriots Wire at the Our City, Our Tap event for Sam Adams to debut his new beer.

“Coming to Boston, one of the first things I knew about Boston was Sam Adams beer,” he explained. “Being a California kid, being here for 12 years, kind of raising or growing up as a young adult here in Boston, in New England, doing the summers in Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard, I was drinking a lot of Sam Adams.
“So to have my face on one and have the Edel-brau, that’s pretty cool.”
Edelman was in attendance alongside Boston Bruins legend Zdeno Chara, Red Sox ace Garrett Crochet, and Boston Celtics star Derrick White, all of whom were celebrating the launch of their beers that will be sold in a special pack.

“It’s been real fun. That’s one of the really cool things about Boston, the crossover with the other pro sports,” Edelman shared. “I remember when I was playing here, we won a championship in basketball, two in baseball, one in hockey, and we had three. And it was always awesome to see the other guys supporting the other teams and to get to be with such perennial players from those teams.”
