WHAT IS THE POINT:
No state has been more impacted by brewing than Massachusetts.But this story hasn’t been told in one place, until now. “Brewing Massachusetts” will be open during the 250th anniversary of 1776, a landmark nationwide event that will shine a spotlight on American history. We want to incorporate the entire state in our celebration of the History of Brewing, and what better way than to include all Massachusetts-ians.
