The world needs to know that we are only 8 days away from Girl Skull playing Malden Porchfest at Idle Hands.

Girl Skull - mature, unwellbehaved ladies, playing menopause metal, screaming about life and ladyparts.

They hit the stage at 6pm on May 31st at Idle Hands.

Our new lager is here!

Introducing Sense of Place!

Brewed with emphasis on bold and rich malty character, similar to an American Bock, but with a higher hop presence adding herbal aromas and a big citrusy finish.

Available starting at 3pm in the Taproom!

The tornado has landed!

Introducing Golden Tornado Ale!

A clean and crisp light golden ale that finishes with a touch of melon and citrus; brewed with a simple grain bill and Huell Melon hops. Perfectly paired with summer sunshine and time spent in the yard, on the trail, or by the water.

Honest question and looking for real responses - How much do you think a beer should cost on draft? Do beer prices influence your decision on where to drink? If beer cost less than it does now in our Taproom would you visit more often?
