Where? A true nano brewery. “The Brewlab”
350 square feet in Somerville, Massachusetts. Once the recipe is refined and ready, it is upscaled to a larger recipe, brewed locally at commercial breweries in MA. Currently, these beers are being brewed at Mercury Brewing.
The Beers:
Flagraiser IPA – American IPA. A hoppy IPA dedicated to one of the first Grand Union flag raisings atop Prospect Hill in Somerville
Happy Sol — A hefeweizen brewed with local MA honey, coriander, orange peel and over 1,000 blood oranges
Porter Square Porter — A malty chocolate porter brewed with cocoa powder and conditioned with cacao nibs from the local Taza Chocolate company.
What’s in the name?
The name is a snarky throwback to the term ‘Slummerville’ because, as with the relationship between craft beer and large macro beers of the last century, the modern city of Somerville is nothing like its former days.
Sam AdamsWhitewater IPA. A wheat ale brewed with apricots & spices.
This hazy brew combines the crisp character of a white ale with the intense pine and citrus flavors of an India Pale Ale. We took the unique combination to a new level with the sublet addition of apricots, which provide a slight sweetness to balance the bitterness of the hops. Cheers!

Dogfish Head Johnny Cask 75 Minute IPA To See Bottles
You take Dogfish Head60 Minute and mix it with 90 Minute, add a little maple syrup, and you have 75 Minute IPA -aka Johnny Cask. I can’t believe I first mentioned the appearance of this beer over 2 years ago. Finally, this beer will see more glasses. It’s headed for 750ml bottles. The maple syrup is the same from the Calagione Family Farm, the same syrup used in Life & Limb. Cask made it’s debut March 26th, 2009 at what DFH called a “Simul-Cask” event. Simultaneous casks tapped at the brewpub, in Philly, Manhattan, & Boston. It has made various appearances since then. The bottle artwork has little addendum. Groucho glasses on the image of Johnny Cash… (See original artwork below)
There are some situations when 90 is too much. There are other situations when 60 is too little. There are many situations when 75 is juuust right. Bottle conditioned with pure maple syrup for complexity and age-ability and dry hopped out the bejeezum boards.
