    Sake flight
    Ron C.

    As a huge sake lover I was psyched to hear there was a sake brewery in MA. I decided to take the 45 minute drive out to Medfield yesterday to check out Farthest Star and I'm glad I did. The vibe here is very laid back. It's in an industrial park type of setting. Parking was a challenge and I thought it was due to the sake brewery but I'm guessing it was most likely the brewery next door as it wasn't busy when I arrived. The owner and his staff member were very nice. I ended up doing two different flights to experience all 6 of their offerings. Each one was unique. My favorite was probably the warm sake. There are some tables to sit at and they had a Korean pop up for food. I didn't buy any food as I was full. Overall, it was a cool experience and I'm hoping to see this company grow.

    Tasting Trio - Barbarella's Elixir is the Purple one in the Middle

    Had a great visit up to Medfield and Farthest Star. The brewer/founder was also involved in Massachusetts first Sake brewery, Dovetail, and this time there's a taproom and a bunch of fun new styles. The taproom is conveniently located in the same industrial complex as 7th Wave Brewing. Its BYO-food, and the day of my visit there was a pop up Korean food stall. They also have cheap and good Japanese snacks right be hind the bar, wasabi peas, rice crackers, shrimp flavored chips, all the favorites. The vibe has something of the cafeteria in a warehouse to it, I kinda dig it. It's a perfect match for a takeout pizza from a place like Crisp (about 10 min away), which has great bar pie and all of the ambiance of a gas station donut counter. And for the real purpose of the visit, the sake was very good. They pour a very broad range of styles (something for everyone) leaning toward lighter fruitier types. The favorites on my trip, In a Strange Land, which is their "flagship" Junmai sake. Its flavor is pretty, lightly tropical, dry and clean. And the beautiful Barbarella's Elixir, it's purple hue and flowery candy flavor a result of the Ube sweet potato it's brewed with. Pretty Great Sake A-

    Castle Island Brewery - Norwood, MA (Beer & Staff)…read more (Atmosphere) Great Beer Selection Castle Island delivers on what matters most: the beer. From crisp lagers to bold IPAs, the selection is solid, flavorful, and well-crafted. Whether you're a hop head or just looking for something smooth, there's something here for every palate. Friendly Staff The team behind the bar is welcoming, knowledgeable, and quick to offer recommendations. Service is efficient and upbeat, which adds to the overall positive vibe. Kid Overload Unfortunately, the atmosphere takes a hit. At 6:00 pm 8:00, the taproom felt more like a daycare than a brewery. Tables were dominated by birthday parties and families with small children eating cupcakes. While some may appreciate the family-friendly approach, it's jarring for those expecting a classic bar experience. If you're looking for a chill adult night out, this might not be the spot--especially on weekends. Final Thoughts Castle Island has the bones of a great brewery: excellent beer and great staff. But the overwhelming presence of kids makes it hard to relax or socialize. If they offered adult-only hours or designated family times, it could strike a better balance.

    Chill brewery under 10 minutes from Emerald Square Mall. This place has been on my list for a long…read moretime and when I realized where it was I thought this would be great to check out after a busy afternoon of errands along Route 1. It's located right at the entrance of an industrial area. There is a very small lot for parking but it was completely full when we visited today, so we parked along the road where a number of other cars were also parked. This seemed to be okay and the signs just requested folks not park on the grass. The entrance is set back from the street so you kind of need to go around towards the back. We saw they had a food truck, Farm to Sandwich, which although kind of pricey, was super delicious. We both got the All American Smash burger with fries. Fries were so crisp and well crafted and the burger was amazing with a great sauce reminiscent of a Big Mac. For beers, since it was our first time here, we decided to try a bit of everything with flights. Their flights are $13 for 4, 5 oz pours. I chose the Coffee Milk Stout, You are Such an Ass, Bienvenu and Justin's Jangle. We started which the You are Such an Ass IPA, which was described as a light IPA but really didn't taste like an IPA at all. We honestly thought they had poured us the wrong beer. As IPA enthusiasts, this was disappointing. The Bienvenu, which is a Red Ale with Panela (unrefined Colombian sugar cane) was infinitely better. The Coffee Milk Stout, I understand is very popular, but I thought this was average. Justin's Jangle, a Maple Praline Porter was my favorite! Really nice, complex brew! We also really enjoyed the live music from Jake Frezza, a local musician out of North Providence. He sang and played guitar and covered a diverse sampling of songs including Brittney Spears (Toxic), James Taylor and Marvin Gaye. His version of "What's Going On" was particularly excellent. I normally dread listening to live performers at breweries but this guy is actually very talented! Kudos to Ravenous for engaging such a high quality musician! Also, for a Saturday, it was not overcrowded or over run with kids. There was just one family with a super quiet baby and we noted just one dog inside. On exiting, I saw they have a nice memorial where they offer to pour a beer to a fallen service member. Very nice! Gender neutral restrooms Pinball Separate rooms make it quieter than breweries in just one big industrial space. Friendly service at the bar and no lines! Bar stools with no back, kind of uncomfortable and there seemed to be no other seating options like chairs or sofas. In summary: Highlights: Bienvenu Red Ale Justin's Jangle Jake Frezza live music Nice memorial to fallen soldiers Low Lights: You are Such an Ass IPA Barstools/ seating Would definitely stop back here again when in the area!

It was exciting when they moved to the new location and have a big beautiful building now. It's a great place to hang out and is quite large so is perfect for events. They have had fundraisers and music there often. There is a nice outside area , perfect for the nice weather coming. They usually have a food truck or you can bring your own. The beers are always reliable. They have had the bievenuto red and coffee stout as long as I can remember. There is always a good amount of choices , if you don't enjoy those flavors as much as I do. It's a really great spot and a great place to visit. Cheers

In fact, its mediocrity has kept me from ever visiting their brewpubs. My mistake! The beer here at the brewery, particularly some of the drafts are very well executed and deserve some mention, specifically their chocolate truffle Baltic porter. Not too sweet, fairly light bodied and perfectly flavored. Their New England hazies and even the dry Irish stout are all very well done and left me wanting to try some more. Most importantly, if you find yourself at patriot place wormtown, you must seek out Brian the bartender. Amazing personality, attentive, kind and really knows about the beers. He really made my visit even more enjoyable. I ended up having the barbacoa sliders and stupidly didn't take a pic. They honestly weren't really much to look at but the flavor was spot on. The meat was tender and the pickled onions added a nice texture. The facility itself is open and spacious with plenty of outdoor seating if that's your thing. They have an assortment of tables and even a couple of bar seats. Order everything at the bar and take it to wherever you fancy.

Even tucked away at the end of a strip mall, it checks all the boxes: great beer, good food, plenty of space, and a fun atmosphere. The food comes from a little food truck outside the building rather than a traditional kitchen, but don't let that fool you, everything I've had has been delicious. My boyfriend is a loyal fan of the Cloud Candy IPA (he'll order it anywhere he sees it on tap), while I can never resist the Daiquiri Hard Smoothie (I forget what it's called, but it's so tasty lol). It's dangerously good... like, "I should probably pace myself, but that's a tomorrow problem" good. The brewery itself has a lot going on. There's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, a coffee shop tucked in the back, a private event room, and even a rock-climbing gym connected to the building, which makes for a pretty unique setup. If you're lucky, you'll even catch the canning line running while you're there, which is fun to watch and reminds you you're drinking the good stuff straight from the source. Whether you're meeting friends for a beer, hanging out for the afternoon, or introducing someone to craft beer, Mighty Squirrel is a solid choice. I'll definitely keep coming back!

Have you ever gone to an…read moreestablishment and felt like you must have missed the sign on the door that had a picture of your face on it that read "DO NOT SERVE"? Because that's essentially how we were treated by our server. She was an older woman with brow hair and the coldest demeanor I have ever encountered in a brewery or restaurant setting. It took fifteen minutes to get menus and another twenty minutes until I got up and just went straight to the bar to order our drinks and food. I know--at that point we should have left, but we have been here before and enjoyed the beer. We tried to politely get her attention several times, and I swear each time she would zoom right by us or even take a totally different path among tables. Like I said, I took my business straight up to the bar and the bartender was super sweet and put our order in and brought our drinks in a couple of minutes. The OG waitress came back with the food order and slammed some napkins down on the table and trotted off. My friend and I both just stared at each other and laughed. We were sitting at a communal table alongside a couple and the gentleman said, "She's got a gentle touch, doesn't she?" We had a good laugh, but the couple confirmed that this had been the vibe since they arrived a half hour before us. In that respect, I guess the OG waitress helped to build community last night, leaving us not to wonder, "Did we do something wrong," but rather, "Woof, wonder what's wrong in her world." It didn't last long though. She stopped by once at last call to which my friend immediately declined. The OG waitress then brought the checks for both parties, though oddly, she collected the couples next to us and the folks behind us, but not ours. We watched the couple leave and the table behind us, and again, we watched the OG waitress totally avoid eye contact and literally clear half our table and surrounding trash, but seemed to be adamant about not taking our cards to process. So again, we traveled to the bar to settle up and leave. The OG waitress came up and was talking to the bartender and clearly stated, "Next time, I'm not doing this. I'm going to be behind the bar and you're gonna be running the floor." Boy, we do love a lack of accountability and a poor team player! In regard to the beer, I ordered the Cape House, which was OK and my friend ordered the Vanilla Cream Madagascar which she really did enjoy. We ordered wings and queso. The wings were super dry and came with what was a low quality, store bought blue cheese dip. The queso cheese was really disappointing--it had a pleasant kick to it, but it also had a grainy texture. The tortilla chips that came with the queso were stale! Unfortunately, I will be back here as they also charged my card TWICE last night. Wish me luck!
