A name most likely associated with a beer company, what role did Samuel Adams really play in fermenting opposition to British policies prior to the American Revolution? His role is usually relegated to the shadows, but he became such an infamous individual that others of his generation were compared to him, and he became Public Enemy Number One in the eyes of the British Crown due to his role in ensuring that a certain beverage never made it out of Boston Harbor.
