    Hope some of this snow is off the roads by then!

    Definitely an easy and great stop!

    If Porter is on, definitely grab a growler. Very underrated in my opinion.

    Well-researched! Think everyone else covered beer so as far as other stuff goes:

    Tree House tomorrow is a total wild-card given the snow today.

    Trillium Canton is out of the way. If your priority is retail, I would do Fort Point to pick up and enjoy the beer list and seafood dinner at Row 34 next door (seafood, appears to not have Trillium on tap right now but good beer list). If you want a bunch of tap pours onsite then by all means go to Canton.

    One half of the Freedom Trail is basically Bunker Hill to Ginger Man. If Freedom Trail is on the itinerary I'd walk that then rather than T / Uber, probably a half hour walk without stops.

    Meadhall is worth a stop if you get to Cambridge Brewing via Kendall T stop or LH/CBC aren't doing it for you.

    The things you want to see are probably very compact, if you can handle the cold, it's very pedestrian friendly.

    I made a map last summer: https://www.google.com/maps/@42.351...m1!4b1!4m2!6m1!1s1nVNZYzGvPowfn05yV8LL0iYrWlA -- I think this is all still relevant.

    Enjoy your trip.

    Thanks! Yeah, I definitely want to take advantage of Trillium on tap. Hitting Ginger Man after checking in at our place the first night. Heavily considering adding Meadhall.

    Meadhall was awesome by the way. A highlight last night. Did Foundation, Austin Street, Bissell Brothers, Allagash, Oxbow, and Bier Cellar today. On way back to Boston now.

    Lord Hobo, CBC, Ginger Man, Brewer's Fork, Mystic, and Night Shift were awesome.

    Night Shift was a great way to end our time in Boston. Love what they have going on.

    Really digged the Macallan BA scotch ale at the end of the Sam Adams brewery tour.
