Convenient location if heading to Fenway or doing shopping in the Newberry area. Inside layout is interesting with the stairway and upper seating. Small but good selection of regional craft beer, including a cask offering from Allagash (the Curieux). A few import craft beers were available also. Menu is vegan/vegetarian focused, which is fine with me, but the food taste wasn’t anything spectacular. I’m not sure if "the other side" has a double meaning, but I started to think I had accidentally found myself inside the Blue Oyster Bar (not that there’s anything wrong with that). Very granola-vegan-hippie feel.

Hello ! It was on the middle of the trip, little bit fatigued to death. We stopped there with Daniel, and we had a really nice time. Good food, nice beer on tap. This is a common place to eat for student, so it’s not a beer bar, but they have a rare selection for that kind of place. This was really nice to just enjoy a "normal " place.

Not really that much of a beer place - it’s more of a trendy, semi-vegetarian, hipster hangout that happens to serve beer - taps include mostly regionals, one stone, and one north coast - the food is so-so hippie chow (lots of sprouts) - if you’re shopping on Newbury Street, stop in, otherwise don’t bother.

A cool, rock & roll-type bar on the end of Newbury street. Beer selection is pretty good, with some rotating taps and a small selection of bottles. Pretty good food, as well.. I often come here for lunch. Outdoor seating is nice, but it does get a bit loud. Overall, a nice place to stop for a drink.. and it seems to get skipped over by all the Red Sox fans on game days!

Interesting place, Two floors, I haven’t been upstairs. 10 taps, Had Anchor Steam, Brookyn brown, Harpoon Framboise, Rapscallion Premier, Guiness, Stella Artois, Pabst, Otter Creek porter, Hooker munich lager, Stone IPA. Didn’t look at the bottle list, but saw some unibroue, chimay, Ipswich ipa, Rogue brutal bitter. Service was alright. Didn’t have any food. Big on vegetarian here. Has some outdoor seating, though it ’s by the Mass ave/ Mass turnpke on ramp so it gets loud. Stone rep said this place does well with his beer. Worth a visit if your in the area. Close to Bauer wine and spirits too!
