This past weekend I went to Hopothecary Ales Brewery🍺 and Kitchen located on 303 Main St, North Reading, MA 01864📍 this stunning brewpub on the north shore features a wide range of beers, cocktails and delicious food!

For cocktails🍹 we had the “The Boss” and “Neptunes Fury”. The Boss had 1800 Reposado Tequila, lime juice and agave. Neptunes fury had rum, vodka, blue curaco, pineapple juice, lemon juice, and lime juice. Both were great options if you aren’t exactly a beer drinker!

However, if you are in the mood for beer I highly recommend trying a beer flight. For only $16 you can try any 4 draft beers or ciders!

For appetizers we had the Ahi Nachos which contained wonton chips, ahi tuna, cucucumer, cole slaw, avocado, wasabi aioli and siriracha aioli. These were so colorful and delicious😍

We also tried their tenders 🍗 and brussel sprouts/cauliflower. The tenders we got came in both ranch dry rub and carribbean buffalo. These are a must try! The brussel sprouts and cauliflower were simply addictive and had a sweet balsamic fig glaze.

For sandwiches🥪 we had the smokey BBQ Brisket sandwich and the G.O.A.T sandwich. The Smokey BBQ Brisket had smoked brisket with hot honey 🍯glaze and the BBQ aioli slaw. The G.O.A.T had searched chicken, avocado and bacon🥓

There were so many options for Mac N Cheese🧀🍝 but we went with the BBQ Burnt Ends Mac. This Mac N Cheese had a nice smokey flavor it contained four cheese sauces, seasoned panko crumbs, brisket, and BBQ Aioli.

Finally, for dessert🍨 we had ice cream with churros! An amazing treat to end the evening.

This place is great for a large group of friends or family. There is an awesome selection of food and drinks-nobody will leave unhappy!
