Hi all- My wife is on a trip to Boston, she has limited means of transportation...feet...any suggestions on what beer might be available? Or a reputable package store to visit...I believe she is staying in the Westin. Thanks. -D
Get to Fort Point and go to Triullium for Bottles. That is all she will need to do, buy as much as she can. Especially the IPA's and DIPA's http://www.trilliumbrewing.com/trillium-brewing-fort-point-location Scroll down for the current list. You're welcome....
Which Westin? If it's the Waterfront Westin, Trillium and Fort Point Market (right next door) are the way to go as @Jbrews suggests. If she's staying at the Copley Westin, Urban Grape on Columbus (just a couple blocks from the Westin) has a great selection, and lots of Trillium in stock (just not the DDH stuff, but they have the core beers, as well as Sleeper St., Galaxy Fort Point), http://theurbangrape.com/
Keep in mind that Trillium beers are in 750ml bottles and even just their glass is heavier than most...adds up fast for walking and flying.
The new Gordons Liquors is open near Downtown Crossing on Temple Place. I stopped in a couple of weeks ago. Really nice shop with helpful staff and a large selection of local beers. Not sure if they have Trillium but you should be able to get other local beers like Night Shift, Mystic, etc. I even saw a few Pretty Things bottles kicking around when I was there.
to add onto Trillium, if you want some variety, the Fort Point Market is literally next door and quite often carries Nightshift cans. I think they have some Morph right now which is a rockin IPA. I live a few miles away and can't help but stop in for a 4 pack when I leave Trillium.
She picked up a bunch hopefully she makes it on the plane tonight. Thanks for the input! If you're ever in the Tampa Bay Area, let me know, I'll attempt to steer you in the right direction. Cheers.
