flight beer group theory coffee casual spacious good for groups trendy good for dates great value bright good for singles rabbit crowded hangout spot sodas
Cynthia B.

Try the "Group Theory ". Very nice and refreshing if you like wheat beers . Hubby likes dark beer and he had "Cuppa", which has cold brew coffee .

Emma Simpson

Group therapy is the best beer ! It was 10pm and "full to capacity" so had to queue outside but there was so much room inside-guess they have strict licensing and safety procedures to follow

Laura Wong

Cambridge's newest brewery . The beer is good cheap flights . Capacity is 71, it gets fairly crowded . They also serve coffee & the vibe is more coffee shop that is a brewery . I dont think they do tours

Lauren Christopher

Love this place! So casual ! So fun! Try the Astral weeks!! Such an original beer . They change them all the time though so there are always new things to try!

Alex Kasemir

Free snacks which is great. Good beer . I find the atmosphere a little hard because it gets crowded on the weekends and people study here.

Steve M

Lamp's brews are generally, as a rule, great. Highly recommend a sampler to try a variety, but if available Rabbit Rabbit is the best I've had here yet.

Noah Weiss

Fun weekend group hangout spot with good beer samplers , games, and a coffee shop inside

Kevin Falcone

Such a wide variety of beers calls out for their samplers. Squeeze in next to some strangers at the group seating, and take advantage of bringing in food from the local area.

Kelsey McGlashan

If you like NE IPAs , look no further. Pressure Drop , Major Tom and Birds of a feather are three fantastic beers . Highly recommend.

Matthew Huie

The "Lumen" is a refreshing Belgian blonde. Great space for beer and work at the same time. Also, there's BYOF (bring your own food)!

Eric O

You can bring in your own food or have it delivered. Try one of the sours!

Sarah Kuehnle

The Cuppa is 20% cold brew and 100% amazing.

Jeff Byrnes

Lots of hoppy beers at the moment, but if you’re malty beer lover, look elsewhere for now.

Ryan Paul

Good local beers and a bright , cozy space with beer to go and beer on tap

Miguel

Awesome atmosphere and great sodas .

Jake Fochetta

Cafe by day, brewery by night. Nice space filled with beer , coffee , and food.

Blake Olmstead

The tasting flights are a great value , perfect for the indecisive or novice beer drinker.

Betty Dembicer

The prop 4 and group theory are the best ones! But all the beers are delicious.

Nathan Lichtenstein

Sour lovers, try Rhapsody. Grilled cheese flights on Saturdays.

Joyce Chen

For food, you can always bring your own or they have food popups almost every night!

Sofia Papastamelos

Interesting mix of people drinking coffee/doing work and brewery day drinkers. Loved the samplers!

Bobby Kennedy

A lot of NE IPAs right now, if that’s your thing. There’s a bar in the rear with more space.

William Huba

Very good beer in a cool open location. Gets pretty crowded .

Constantin W

Great place if you are into IPAs !

Brian McMahon

No beer here will be bad. This is the underrated best beer spot in MA

Manuela McDanal

Sour beers are amazing

Tom Keefe

Amazing place. Pressure drop is a world class pale ale .

Stefan Rajkovic

Great beers , lots of variety.

Meghan McKenna

If you are a sour person try the juicy flight !!

Aleksandra Arcipowska

Must go! We loved it!

bill m.

try the beer . all of it.

Lad

Great beer , smallish area

Mike Waleke

cold brew flight !

Jerrylyn Huckabee

The vibe is very cool but the beer is terrible. I think someone forgot to order malt for their whole line of beers .

Al Nick

Netter Laden. Sehr gut besucht von jungem Publikum. Bier ist guter Durchschnitt. Vom hinteren Taproom ist ein Blick ins Herz der Brauerei möglich. Biergartenstyle darf Essen mitgebracht werden!

Atenea

Parada obligada para tomar una cerveza en Cambridge. La Arnie fue la mejor.
