Brewery description and vibe
We have a specific attachment to Widowmaker Brewing in Braintree because this is where we had our first craft beers. The site is located in an industrial area, it has nice tap room where you can see the brewing process. Even if they are not in the best location for an outside area the team did their best to offer something cool. The site has no kitchen but has a food truck nearly every time they are open. To know more about the beers they have or the food truck for a specific day you can check their website.
Also, don’t forget to check the funeral car.
Beers
Widowmaker brewing always offers a good variety of beers. The Blue Comet is their flagship IPA, this is a very good beer when you find it in a bar in Boston. In the taproom you will find even better propositions. We especially love all their New England IPAs (single, double, or tripple). If you are not into IPAs you should find few sours or pilsners. For more info you can check the brewery ranking on Untappd here.
