I still love Jack's Abby. They make really well-made lagers with no frills, a couple spinoffs with frills that are very good, and they are reasonably priced, $10 for a 6-pack of 16oz cans. They are really well respected, but nobody hypes their special releases. They fill an incredibly important role in the craft market, and I fear they are going to outgrow it as they get bigger and bigger every year.
Bone Up is a metal/punk bar that happens to brew a lot of really high quality beers. They are a tiny brew system, so they churn out great, unique beers, and the vibe of the place is great.
Castle Island is just on there because they are a really solid place with some great "extreme beers," like their annual anniversary stout. Plus, they are on the way to Gillette Stadium from Boston, so it's a perfect pre-Revs stop for me.

bone up sounds fun; I hope they make it through this whole pandemic thing so I can check them out in the future.
They are right next to Night Shift
