    My family will be making a stop off in Boston Harbor as part of a trip and said they'd bring back some beer for me. Any suggestions on beer stores when it comes to grabbing some MA heavy hitters (Trillium, Night Shift, Jack's Abby, etc.)?

    Boston Harbor? Can I hazard a guess that they're on a Cruise? If so, the cruise port in Southie is pretty close to Trillium and there is a good package store right next to them, Fort Point Market.

    That's correct, I suppose I should have specified. From the port to Trillium would be a little over an hour, would it not?

    If they are docking in Boston proper Trillium and fort point market are right down the street maybe 15 minutes to the trillium Boston brewery. Maybe you looked up the new canton location

    Are they on the Disney Magic? If so, they can only bring a six pack on board (a format Trillium doesn't offer). Not sure the rule if they are on Royal Caribbean.

    Royal Caribbean. They'll take it and hold it until the end of trip regardless of format I believe

    There's a Silver Line stop not too far from the dock that can take them to the Court House. That stop is a block from Trillium. If they get several beers it would be much easier to use the subway than to carry them all the way back to the ship.

    If they're into beer and have lots of time the Harpoon Brewery is pretty close to the dock. They may enjoy beers there. Seafood options are at Row 34 (right next to Trillium) and the Barking Crab near the Silver Line stop.

    Please, for the love of humanity, never again refer to the silver line as a subway. It's a damn bus.
