Benson Brewery

A Benson neighborhood staple, Benson Brewery is a haven for craft beer enthusiasts and cocktail lovers alike. It serves a variety of mainstay beers like Hazy Hare (a New England IPA) and College Ale (a refreshing American ale). Seasonal and limited edition series beers, from bourbon barrel-aged milk stout to honey kolsch, keep things fresh. Can’t decide? Try a flight of 4-ounce pours. But it's not just about the beer. Cocktails and wine are also on offer, and the chef-focused kitchen delivers high-quality comfort foods like burgers, macaroni and cheese, vegan sandwiches and salads. Regulars swear by the hand-cut brew fries and vegan chicken wings. Reclaimed wood flooring, exposed brick walls, warm colors, and an outdoor patio (a local favorite) offer a warm atmosphere to gather with friends old and new.
