Kathryn PurvisJanuary 10, 2014Try a beer flight! They have a couple different options available. Great way to get a little taste of everything. Then eat some delicious pretzels!
Joseph CettinaAugust 16, 2014Pretzels were warm and soft w rock salt on top dipping cheese and mustard sauces on the side were the best would order it again
Jeff ColwellAugust 7, 2019This was one of the highlights of my Boston trip. This place is so cool. Do a flight and don’t pass on the pretzel.
gabkashOctober 28, 2014Great beer! You also get to sample all the beer you want at the end of the tour (which is only 5 bucks!)
Matteo PastoreApril 28, 2017Love the beer tasting during the brewery tour. Highly recommended experience also to have a beer in the lounge
Greg StearnsJune 12, 2013The new beer hall is a huge improvement from the old tasting room. Take the tour and enjoy the tasting after! This is a seaport must!
Courtney ThompsonAugust 8, 2012Complimentary tastings twice a day that is all you can taste in an hour. A very informative staff excited about the beer. It's out of the way but so worth it.
Grab their Cidre (not sweet) and a pretzel with herb butter and roasted red pepper aioli. Great rainy day spot.
Steve FinchSeptember 27, 2013You can rent the back room for meetings. Good A/V equipment, though the acoustics leave a lot to be desired. Still, the benefit of having beer on tap a few feet away should never be discounted.
PaulMarch 8, 2015A good time was had by all at the St Patricks day celebration. Lots of great beer and pretzels for all.
BSeptember 8, 2012Great staff, extremely knowledgeable and friendly along with a generous supply of tastings, don't leave Boston without a sip from the gods sweet nectars.
Andrew HogueApril 14, 2014Fill a couple growlers straight from the tap, then T over to the north end to grab some pizza, then sit outside and have the best summer afternoon ever.
Pretzels and fresh beer selection. The men's bathroom has a great view!
Kevin ChiuJuly 2, 2016Great vibe. Love the white ufo. Pretzels are made from brewing byproducts and are awesome! 😍
One of the best breweries i've ever been to! Go on the weekend tours ... they keep your complimentary glass filled the entire hour!
Lee AllenAugust 8, 2014The spicy mustard for the pretzels was so spicy I was in tears. So, pretty much the best spicy mustard ever.
matt sMarch 25, 2013Pretzels, cheese, mustard. Any beer you can get, but I really liked the "chocolate truffle", chocolate stout with raspberry UFO.
Sabina B.September 9, 2014Really friendly staff who drop solid knowledge and pour generously during tastings. Try the Dunkel!
Jason BaronMarch 23, 2019I’m 42 and easily twice as old as everyone here. Just saying. Still good beer!
Garde BurgessDecember 29, 20184 to 7 is nuts. Plan to wait. Better to go early in the afternoon if you want to sit and enjoy a few.
Cara TerezMay 8, 2013Delicious beer and pretzels. Make sure to ask about the rotating pilot batches of beer!! Mmm lemon elderberry ale.
Calvin MultanenSeptember 27, 2015Do the brewery tour. $5, great guides, and includes 20 minutes of free tasting. Grab a pretzel after the tour
Really fun brewery tour. Afterwards hang out in the beer garden and get the pretzel.
Collette SNovember 17, 2015Get the pretzel and tasting flights. Fantastic dipping sauces for the pretzels!!
Angel PachecoMay 20, 2015The Harpoon sampler, salted pretzel with bacon ranch and garlic butter the best!
Rachel MondrickAugust 13, 2013Their apple cider is delicious. But if you're looking for a light fruity beer go for the UFO Raspberry. 👌
Michael DurkinJune 15, 2015Their pretzels along with all their beers are magnificent. Highly recommended this place
Chris BruceAugust 17, 2014Yeah the beer is good, but the soft pretzels made from grain used during the brewing process, incredible!
Mike KephartJuly 6, 2013Show up late, you will want to wait. The "wait" is in the brew hall with great beer and pretzels.
Stephen L.September 2, 2012Contrary to what the website says, they tend to sell out by 12:30 for all tours on weekends. By early 2013, they'll be opening a beer hall here that will sell pints.
Denise DuttonOctober 21, 2013Their pretzels are made with their IPA & have barley (and salt) sprinkled on top? Yes please!
Great vibes, beer and pretzels. Right along the waterfront- you can't go wrong.
Manny CabralAugust 31, 2015The place to be in Boston! You can buy "production beer" & enjoy a good bar scene.
Gideon OlshanskyOctober 19, 2015My favorite selection pretzels and beer. You must get the beer cheese.
Denise KaminskySeptember 2, 2013Great tour with Beer tastings of 10+ beers. Pretzels great. Nice Beer Hall, free parking.
Bill DaySeptember 20, 2013Great pretzels topped with brewers barley. Be sure and try the mustard and others sauces!
Go to the beer hall, seriously. Brewery fresh beer is incredible. My favorite is the UFO White.
Nick CianiMay 16, 2013Great beers and definitely order both the sweet and salty pretzels. The IPA cheese is unreal.
Jamie TkachJune 1, 2014Get your tickets early on weekends they sell out! Also pretzels are to die for.
