The idea is a saucy boom built on a full foundation, the spoils of which amount to a brilliant optical illusion.
BOSTON BETTER BEER BUREAU: LORD HOBO DOOM SAUCE + HARPOON AMERICAN IPA
IPA
BOSTON BETTER BEER BUREAU: DORCHESTER BREWING CO.
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.
BOSTON BETTER BEER BUREAU: RANSACK THE UNIVERSE
From experimental hop remixes to creative cans, it’s great to have Collective Arts in Boston
BOSTON BETTER BEER BUREAU: ALBATROSS + CITRA BRAU
Whatever it is, I know good beer when I taste it, and this is that.
BOSTON BETTER BEER BUREAU: NIGHT SHIFT CROP CIRCLES
The most impressive thing about this beer may actually be what it is not: Not too pretentious, nor too light, hazy, or sweet, it’s balanced magic in a goddamn can.
DRINK A PEACH: BEHOLD THE MIGHTY SQUIRREL’S PERFECT FRUIT CONCOCTION
Enter the holy Mighty Squirrel and its perfectly mellow Peach Smoovy IPA. Somehow even better than the Waltham brewery’s signature Cloud Candy, it’s the most delicious piece of pie I’ve sipped in quite a while.
BOSTON BETTER BEER BUREAU: BAD DECISION JUICE
What’s important is that Bad Decision, despite clocking in at a mere 4.7 percent ABV, does a dangerous enough dance on your tastebuds to remain sexy.
