(WHDH) — A brewery battle is heating up as the Red Sox travel to New York in a deadlocked series.
Boston-based Sam Adams took to social media to take shots at Brooklyn Brewery. Not surprisingly, each brewery is backing their local team, and the war of words ended with a friendly wager.
The official Sam Adams Twitter account started the battle:
Hey @BrooklynBrewery wanna hear a joke? New York’s baseball team.

The New York-based brewery responded in kind:
That's pretty bold coming from the team that's about to lose the division.
— The Brooklyn Brewery (@BrooklynBrewery) October 5, 2018
The breweries settled on a wager: The losing city has to post on Twitter a video toasting with the winner’s beer and wearing the winning brewery’s hat. They also have to rename a beer in their tap room.
The Sox and Yankees are knotted up at 1-1 in the best-of-5 American League Divisional series ahead of Monday night’s showdown in the Bronx.
