While current federal U.S. law prohibits the commercial sale of cannabis products, the company believes this could change in the near future.

“We believe non-alcoholic cannabis beverages  could  represent  a new frontier  of innovation and want to be ready for future opportunities in the U.S.,” said CEO Dave Burwick.

Boston Beer’s portfolio includes Samuel Adams, Truly Hard Seltzer, Twisted Tea,  Angry Orchard Hard Cider and Dogfish Head Brewery.

What Happens Next: After the 2020 U.S. election, many cannabis industry observers expected changes to federal cannabis laws. Yet, President Joe Biden never campaigned on the promise of cannabis legalization, and last month White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki refused to say if the president would sign or veto a bill to legalize marijuana if such legislation was approved by Congress.

“The president supports leaving decisions regarding legalization for recreational use up to the states, rescheduling cannabis as a Schedule II drug so researchers can study its positive and negative impacts and, at the federal level, he supports decriminalizing marijuana use and automatically expunging any prior criminal records,” Psaki said. “He also supports legalizing medicinal marijuana, so that’s his point of view on the issue.”
