Notch Brewing

The first Boston location for the popular Salem-based craft brewery, Notch Brewing’s Brighton taproom is their take on a traditional Czech and German-style beer hall, while their expansive biergarten makes it the perfect place to gather year-round.

The taproom and biergarten are home to frequent events, such as live music, hands-on workshops, movie nights, and plenty of opportunities to gather.

Launched in 2010, Notch Brewing – named for the nick made to keep record when you’re having more than one – was the first brewing company in the U.S. to focus exclusively on session beer, which only has 4.5% alcohol or less. These lower alcohol beers, based on classic session styles from the Czech Republic, Germany, England, and Belgium, are the perfect way to bring people together for a good time.

In July of 2022, Notch Brewing was named Boston’s Best Brewery in Boston Magazine‘s annual Best of Boston issue.

The Koji Club

Boston’s first sake bar!

The Koji Club is a safe space to learn about and celebrate Japanese sake, and to reframe sake from an esoteric sushi companion to an approachable everyday beverage choice. At the Koji Club, guests can enjoy sake while also learning about its culture and history from an industry leader and tastemaker.

Founded in 2020 by advanced sake professional Alyssa Mikiko DiPasquale, the Koji Club started out as a “virtual clubhouse” of bi-weekly tastings and special events, though the long term vision always included a physical location. We are so glad Alyssa found her home in The Speedway.

In July 2022, Alyssa was named Boston Magazine‘s Best Beverage Director in their annual Best of Boston issue, and most recently on Condé Nast Travelers’ 2023 Hot List: Best New Restaurants in the World
