Boston Beer Works

The first Boston Beer Works location was opened at 61 Brookline Avenue, by two beer loving brothers, Joe and Steve Slesar.  This brewery/restaurant came two years after they formally began their brewing company, Slesar Bros. Brewing.   The location across from Fenway Park, combined with their unique microbrews, made Boston Beer Works an instant success.

In 1996, the Slesar brothers took their success to Salem, MA, and opened the second Boston Beer Works, called Salem Beer Works, location in the historic Massachusetts town.  After seven years, the brewpub remains the only in Salem, and is quite popular with both tourists and locals.

The success of the first two bars led the brothers to open their flagship location across the street from the Boston Garden on Canal Street.  This two floor pool hall/restaurant is quite the attraction to Celtics and Bruins fans before the game for a quick burger and beer.
