It’s not just Dorchester’s own branded magic that the brewery and tap room are increasingly known for, but rather for those selections as well as a stellar roster of brews they pour from (and in some cases brew for) other companies on Mass Ave.
BOSTON BETTER BEER BUREAU: CZARFACE DOUBLE IPA + FLUME DOUBLE IPA
Like most of the beers in Bent Water’s arsenal and the Czarface musical catalogue to date, Don the Armor is the best kind of punch to the jaw.
BOSTON BETTER BEER BUREAU: BLACK HOG IPA
A 6.2% ABV number packing top notch Citra and Mosaic hops, this relatively new selection from the Connecticut-based Black Hog Brewing Co. is a certifiable standout and delicious social lubricant.
BOSTON BETTER BEER BUREAU: THE BEERS OF BOULDER
The grass is always greener, sure, but especially in the case of Colorado. Which is why we wish we had the room to bring a couple of sampler packs back to Mass.

TWO NEW FAVORITE MASS BEERS
Don’t Worry by Wormtown and CBC Hopheads Guide to the Galaxy
ALMOST A YEAR INTO OPERATION, ENJOYING MORE THAN SIMPLY SUDS AT DTX’S UNIQUE BEER HALL
You can get entrees as well, including fish and chips, a fisherman’s stew, and shepherd’s pie with lamb. The items tried over the course of a couple of visits were very impressive for a brewery, with the beef barley soup having loads of barley and almost being a meal on its own.
BOSTON BETTER BEER BUREAU: RANSACK THE UNIVERSE
From experimental hop remixes to creative cans, it’s great to have Collective Arts in Boston
