Beer lovers rejoice! We are in the golden age of brewing in America, and New England hosts some of the very best breweries in the world. One of our resident Beer geeks Nate Gaul outlined a few of the Boston stalwarts here earlier in the season. I’d like to talk up one of my favorite sports for suds in Boston.

Nightshift Brewery near Boston

My favorite brewery in Boston. Well not exactly Boston, a little outside in Everett. An easy drive off route 16 or a T ride to the Wellington Station on the Orange Line. This place is everything I want in a tasting room. Tasty, fresh and local brews that are always rotating. For hop heads I love the Santilli IPA. If you are looking to go in a different direction try the Awake Coffee Porter. This thing is so smooth you will think you are taking down a cold brew.

But like any microbrew, do yourself a favor and take smaller pours so you can taste a bunch. Whirlpool and the Morph series are also real dynamite.

Pro tips: Corn Hole boards are set up in the tap room. Also check the calendar to get a line the beers they have and also the food trucks that will be waiting for you in the parking lot. Also Night Shift has a sweet logo and dope gear. I have a hard time not buying stuff on my way out the door!
