Ride the Orange Line from Malden toward Forest Hills and stay close to great beer — Idle Hands and Faces in Malden, Night Shift at North Station, Democracy Brewing downtown, and Drawdown and Samuel Adams in Jamaica Plain.
Start in Malden. Meticulous German lagers and Belgian ales with grilled cheese and pretzels in a dog-friendly taproom. Short walk from Malden Center station.
Also steps from Malden Center — a converted bank brewpub with a full kitchen doing BBQ, sourdough pizza, and weekend brunch alongside house NEIPAs and sours.
Waterfront taproom steps from North Station. Whirlpool NE Pale Ale, full scratch kitchen with Detroit-style pizza, and a great patio on the water.
Worker-owned cooperative pub steps from Downtown Crossing. Full scratch-cooked food and a broad house lineup from cask ales to stouts.
LGBTQ+, woman-owned JP taproom in Egleston Square, a hub for women's and queer sports fans. Malt-forward ambers, cream ale, alt bier, and porter. Between Stony Brook and Green Street stations. Service animals only inside.
End in Jamaica Plain at the original Sam Adams site (opened 1988), now the R&D pilot brewhouse in the historic Haffenreffer complex. Guided tours, a beer garden, and small-batch pilot releases. Near Stony Brook station.
