Dorchester Brewing Company is a vibrant space with 20 draft lines of expertly crafted beers, tasty BBQ from M&M, and a rooftop deck boasting stunning city views.
"This multistory brewery in Dorchester features 20 taplines of beer and cider, as well as wine, hard seltzer, and nonalcoholic beverages. We like the Galaxy Lights, a well-balanced, juicy, and hazy New England-style IPA, and the seasonal sour called Punchbowl, which basically tastes like fermented fruit punch. You’ll always find people who live in the neighborhood hanging out in the space for a night of trivia, arcade games, and sometimes live music. M&M BBQ, a barbecue joint that has taken up residence inside the brewery since 2020, has the best ribs in town, and equally good brisket sandwiches. Also, check out the rooftop patio for the best panorama view of the city." - valerie li stack

"If you haven’t hit Dorchester Brewing Company’s rooftop Hopservatory yet, you’re missing out. The four-season space is partly covered with a glass greenhouse, a bar (so you don’t have to run up and down the stairs), and ample outdoor space for the warm days. Drink beer and grab some barbecue from in-house restaurant M&M BBQ." - Tanya Edwards, Eater Staff
"Dorchester Brewing Co. hosts the free Bears, Brews & Boys: Summer HEAT event on its open rooftop patio and rooftop greenhouse from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. The inclusive and gay-friendly event offers a chance to mingle while sipping the brewery’s ciders, hard seltzers, wines, and brews. Also on offer: hard slushies to cool off, with grub served by on-site eatery M&M BBQ." - Erika Adams
"While a large section of Dorchester Brewing Company’s rooftop features a patio with umbrellas, when the rain hits, head through the doors into the adjoining “Hopservatory.” Within the enclosed greenhouse-like space, order up some pulled pork sandwiches, ribs, and loaded fries from the in-house barbecue restaurant M&M BBQ. The glass walls and roof means that even the rain won’t spoil those city views." - Nathan Tavares, Erika Adams
