Hopsters started in nearby Newton in 2013 with the unique concept of offering wannabe brewmasters the opportunity to learn how to create batches of beer under expert tutelage. Paired with an adjacent brew pub offering an array of sandwiches, salads, pizza and charcuterie, the facility also crafts its own signature New England-style IPAs and more for its thirsty patrons. With the recent debut of Hopsters’ Seaport District location (51 Sleeper St., 857-239-9042, hopstersbrew.com), Boston now has a 6,000-square-foot emporium where hops-and-barley lovers can either simply sit and sip or brew from a selection of 30 recipes. And if you can’t be there to take your beer away when it’s ready, no worries—you can have it shipped to you, packaged with your own custom-designed labels and ready to enjoy.
