RiverWalk Brewing Co.

Newburyport

Just a few years ago, these brewers were making beer in a 3-gallon pot in a garage along the Riverwalk in Amesbury. Fast-forward to last year, when they were named one of the fastest growing small and independent craft breweries around by the Brewers Association. Cans of popular favorites like their flagship IPA or the dark, lush Storm Door Porter are in quality packies around the state, but visit the taproom for something truly unique. You might just find your new favorite, like the bright, floral Trust Fall IPL (India Pale Lager), which has the distinction of being crafted by women and celebrates the Pink Boot Society, an organization dedicated to promoting women in the brewing industry.

Runner Up

Notch Brewing Co.

Salem

You won’t find monster 8 percent ABV brews here—only session beers clocking in at 4.5 percent and lower, so you can enjoy a few on a summer afternoon without embarrassing yourself.
