Winter Hill Brewing Company

"If you work in the neighborhood, Winter Hill Brewing Company is probably where you go to decompress after you clock out. There's trivia on Thursday nights and daily specials that sometimes feature their juicy and crunchy fried chicken. The tap list is IPA-heavy, but they also make crispy kölsch and pilsners that go down easy. The food menu is made up of bar classics with a modern and sometimes global twist, like savory and tangy kimchi latkes, hearty Welsh rarebits, and slightly spicy and delicious curry kale wraps with vindaloo-style cauliflower.

"For top-notch local beer and good vibes, head to this brewpub, which is accessible by the newly opened bike path extension and the Green Line. If you’re in the mood for a meal, order some popular items, such as lamb burger and buffalo cauliflower, from the Scott Brothers, one of the most exciting culinary duos in the Somerville food scene." - Valerie Li Stack

"A similar change is happening at Somerville craft beer gem Winter Hill Brewing, which is located eight minutes off the Gilman Square stop. Having seen an uptick of traffic during the typically slow winter months, general manager Bert Holdredge is looking forward to the completion of the Somerville Community Path extension, a 1.7-mile project that connects Davis Square to East Cambridge. “In addition to the T riders, we’re hoping for a bike-friendly pathway that will bring bikers from other parts of the town to grab a beer and a bite this spring,” he says." - Valerie Li Stack

"Winter Hill Brewing is really a little diner that brews beer. You can come here and get a cappuccino or a beef brisket platter in addition to beer, and if you’re blowing off work on a Tuesday, you should do just that. On the weekends, though, you’re probably going to have to wait to get in, and then with table service and a line out the door you won’t really feel comfortable lingering with a beer the way you do at most breweries. It also has one of the smaller beer selections, with only about six or seven beers on tap at any given time." - dan secatore
