Night Shift Brewing

You no longer need to head out to Night Shift's Everett headquarters to understand why the owl has become one of the biggest symbols of Boston beer. The brewery-and-more now also has a brewpub on the harbor at Lovejoy Wharf, as well as seasonal beer gardens around Boston. (Not to mention, license extension-outposts at Encore Boston Harbor casino and Level99 playscape at the Natick Mall!) Known for a spectrum of IPAs, stouts, saisons, weisses, porters, and more small-batch brews, Night Shift is more than beer these days, with cocktails, wine, and non-alcoholic options on the menus, plus their own brand of locally roasted coffee. The spacious, family- and dog-friendly Everett taproom is a draw with trivia nights, fun runs, food trucks, and more on the events calendar.
