"Malden brewery Idle Hands welcomes children 12 and under with a parent or guardian; otherwise, it’s 21+. (Children who cannot sit on a lap throughout the visit should be included in the headcount for reservations.) The patio — which is also open to well-behaved, leashed dogs — is unheated and open only when weather permits. In addition to its lineup of beers, Idle Hands is serving grilled cheese and pretzels. No reservations; all areas of the taproom are first come, first served. Idle Hands is currently offering indoor and outdoor seating (and there’s standing room, too), as well as beer and merch sales to go." - Rachel Leah Blumenthal
