Night Shift
In a Somerville MA apartment in 2007 when 3 friends began homebrewing beer for friends and family. Their hobby took place after work often stretching late into the night what they called their night shift. Driven by a passion to craft more interesting and flavorful beers than the commercial options available they turned that hobby into something bigger. In 2012 Night Shift Brewing officially launched in a small Everett warehouse setting the foundation for what would become a thriving independent brewery.
Today Night Shift Brewing continues to grow fueled by the same commitment to creativity quality and community. With a dedicated team of hardworking staff the company operates a taproom and brewery in Everett a restaurant and brewery at Lovejoy Wharf in Boston and a handful of seasonal Owls Nest beer gardens. Its portfolio of beverages can be found across the Northeast and beyond.

Wormtown
Wormtown Brewery started in 2010 on Park Ave in Worcester MA transforming an old ice cream shop into a small brewery. From the beginning the focus was on crafting great beer while staying true to its hometown roots. With strong support from the local community new recipes were created and refined.
Then came Be Hoppya bold West Coast IPA released at the height of the Hazy New England IPA craze. It stood out from the pack and quickly became a fan favorite.
As word spread so did the brewery. What started as a small Worcester operation grew into two taprooms and a brand recognized across New England. But no matter how far the beer travels the mission remains the same: to craft highquality beer that brings people together with a smile one pint at a time.
