Hopster's in Newton, Massachusetts is a Must Visit for Craft Beer Lovers


I must admit, it took me far too long to go to Hopster's in Newton, Massachusetts. But after just going  last week, I am impressed and need to go back for more. Hopster's is a mini brewery and restaurant combined. They offer food options that all compliment beer drinking such as, a charcuterie board, jumbo chicken wings, and pizza. But the best part is, you can brew your own beer. Yes, you read that correctly, you can go get dinner and brew your own beer.


The brewing process takes around 2 hours. You make about 7.5 gallons of your own beer, which is roughly 32 cans. You then go back in 2 to 3 weeks for bottling. While you are creating your own beer, they have 20 tap lines including an in-house selection, New England brewed beers, ciders, wine, and the "Perfect Manhattan".


It was a beer experience like no other. It did not seem like I could make a bad choice when deciding on the house beers. They offered New England style IPAs, Double IPAs, a Westcoast IPA, a Brown Ale, a Porter, and many more! 

Go taste it for yourself. Visit their website by clicking here: Hopster's

If you like some of their beer, you can buy some to-go:

Foam Brewers Fantastically Crafted Double IPA. Burlington, Vermont

Image
Took a trip to Burlington Vermont this past weekend and visited an amazing craft brewery called Foam Brewers .  This brewery is located right on Lake Champlain in Burlington with a great waterfront view.  I am a massive fan of Double IPAs and fortunately for me Foam Brewers had a impeccable one on tap called Mountain Energy . This delightful Double IPA packed a punch at 9% ABV and had delicious notes of citrus, ripe papaya, and dank.  Mountain Energy gave off an aroma of fruity dank hops.  It was medium bodied, and had an initial blended taste of a few different fruits such as ripe papaya, pineapple, and grapefruit.  The after taste gave a refreshing dank bitter finish.  I would absolutely recommend giving the Mountain Energy a try but it is a rotating craft beer so make sure to check before you go!  #I'dTapThat

Sam Adams' Most Expensive Beer EVER!

Image
    Picture Credited to Sam Adams' website    It's only released every two years. Brewed by the Boston-based Sam Adams. Sam Adams has recently announced the release of this one-of-a-kind, biennial brew, by the name of Utopias. This year will be the 10th release of this one of a kind barrel-aged beer! It is said that they are the pioneers in the barrel aging process, which is now common practice throughout the industry. Some of the batches they are releasing have been aged up to 24 years!    Other than being offered in the awesome containers this brew is quite unique. According to Sam Adams, "It is brewed with  a special blend of two-row pale malt combined with Munich and Caramel 60 malts that impart a rich, ruby color. Three varieties of German Noble hops – Spalt Spalter, Hallertau Mittelfrueh, and Tettnang Tettnanger – are added to balance the sweetness of the malt. After the beer is brewed, the first proprietary brewing method begins – adding sp...

Sam Adams is finally opening a taproom!

Image
BOSTON – For years, the Samuel Adams Brewery in Jamaica Plain was one of the top tourist destinations in Boston, with millions of people visiting each year. But, one thing was missing – you couldn’t enjoy a pint of your favorite Samuel Adams beer. They only allowed samples. That has now changed. Last week, Samuel Adams opened its brand-new taproom at its 30 Germania St. brewery. Now visitors can tour the brewery, taste samples and drink full pints or flights of several of their favorite brews. “It’s awesome. It’s a great space,” said Brewery Manager Jennifer Glanville. ” I really designed the space I want to hang out in. I hang out at a lot of taprooms. This has a lot of casual seating, communal tables. Shuffleboard. We’ll have food trucks. We want people to help determine what’s in here.” The taproom is next to the retail store inside the brewery. It opens to the beer garden. The taproom holds up to 80 people comfortably and, when weather allows, the beer garden can seat ...
