I make the pilgrimage about once every three months for my King Jjjuliusss fix. Never stayed there, but it looks super nice.
If you’re ever looking for better beer:
Widowmaker in Braintree, Long Live (Roxbury and Providence) have great stuff and fun taprooms. In addition, in some craft beer stores you could look for Little Willow.
I’ve enjoyed Widowmaker, especially since I can pick it up at my local package store. But I wouldn’t call it a better beer :)
I believe it is. TH is stuffing any crap they can into their beer because they know it’ll sell. That “curiosity” line? Same junk with a different #.
Good example was the Oreo Moment of Clarity. IMO: the base version is awesome, one of the best stouts I’ve had. The Oreo is just a lame gimmick that ruins it.
