    An adorable bear visited Gentile
    Kate P.

    I had heard great things about this nearby brewery for quite some time and it took an unfortunate situation for me to finally make my way there. As I was stuck waiting nearby to get my car out from being towed (with a quoted hour and a half wait and a dead phone), I headed to Gentile to kill time and hopefully charge my phone. The moment I walked in, I greeted by an adorable golden retriever and a super friendly staff. I explained my situation and they immediately set me up with a seat at the bar and a charger as my phone got to charge right in front of me. I also enjoyed a delicious IPA (I think it was called Divergence?). Not long after I arrived, another dog the size of a bear (ok, maybe not that large but the closest size a dog can get to one) came waddling in looking for affection. I was in dog and IPA heaven! All of the patrons were nice and the place was filled with quite a few people but wasn't obnoxiously mobbed. After the time came to face the tow man, I was in a much better mood about the situation, got my dog fix and phone charged. I'm mad at myself for waiting so long to visit and will absolutely be back many times over. Thanks to the guys are the bar for helping me out too!

    Just when I thought Beverly couldn't get any better, Gentile Brewing emerges as the new fun hangout spot in town (well, technically a city). This amazing little brewery has a stunning tap room with beautiful natural lightings and gleaming-like-minded beer drinkers who were here to just have a good time. Di-Ver-Gent- Very creative. This wasn't just a play on word, it's a series of IPAs with different combinations of malts and hops for each batch. This one in particular was more on the hoppier side. Squash Porter- Bitter, malty, reminded me of toffee. We enjoyed it. Overall Service: Engaging and personable, basically they checked off everything in my book.

    Cool little brewery, nice big space, clean bathrooms, and the female bartender (whose name this jackass wrote down and then lost) was really nice. All around it is a fun place to visit, and a seemingly good choice if you want to try a bunch of traditional styles of beers and figure out which ones you like. You won't find double dry hopped IPAs, but some of those places don't offer much other than that, so this place may be a fairly welcome change to some.

    Fun fact: When I first heard Gentile was on Park Street, I wondered if it was in the old Press Box location, but then figured that place is probably condemned by the health commission, so it couldn't possibly be. And it's not, but it is just a block or so away. Another fun fact: Read the signs because Gentile actually has parking, but Stacey and I missed that, so we parked at the depot. Gentile Brewing is great. We got a flight, so we could sample different style. As I consult Untappd, I see that I really enjoyed the Farmhouse Saison, as did my sister, and she is also a fan of their porter. We had just missed out on a gourd beer, which is sad. The bar is small, but we grabbed the last two seats on a Saturday around 3:30. There's plenty of room at the bigger tables across from the bar. The one thing we couldn't stop talking about is the staff. We forget their names, but both (a man and woman) were so incredibly friendly and knowledgeable and kept the conversation going at the bar. Even if we didn't like the beer, that alone would bring us back, because we absolutely loved the staff. Gentile is definitely worth a visit.

    It's on the smaller scale but worth a visit. Easy to get to and parking is available. The beers were delicious. So during my Friday night visit they had a private vendor for food Tex Mex and I got the frito pie and it was delicious got it twice. It's a frito bag of corn chips and they add cheese sauce and beans and it was sooo good

    Our group tried a variety of beers and struggled to finish them, with some saying we could go to the next place without them finishing.

    Backbeat Brewing Company does Irish breakfast once a month, and as someone who has only had it in…read moreIreland prior to this, it did not disappoint! Prices were extremely reasonable with a breakfast coming out to about $13 and the employees behind the counter were super friendly and nice. The breakfast was delicious and a great portion for the price. My partner who has not eaten an egg in about 20 years worked up the courage to try this one and LOVED it which was as a huge win as he now knows he does like eggs! I personally enjoyed the beans and sausage, which definitely were just as good as what I've had in Ireland. The restaurant was relatively quiet when we went, but there were still a handful of regulars there. There was also Irish session happening around noon, which we stayed for part of and it was nice as well.

It was a large space with plenty of table, high top, and picnic table style seating inside and outside there was plenty of patio seating. Right across from the Beverly Depot. They have food available which people were coming into grab and go. There was a handful of beers as well as some on cask. Seemed like they probably have more but were out of a good amount given the number of taps we could see. In general it was clean. Not sure we would rush back. Still we were glad we checked out a local place.

Outdoors is dog friendly and I made some furry friends while sitting out for a drink! The German style beers they have on tap included some unique finds and some styles you don't see too often. Bartenders were very friendly and helpful when I was trying to decide what to get, as lagers and ales are not my usual go tos but made up the majority of the offerings. I got the Salem Ale, a helles style, in a half pour- I love that they offer this smaller size since their other glasses are absolutely massive! This was an easy drinking, smooth beer with low hops, just what I wanted for a hot summer day when I only had limited time to spend here. My drinking partner also enjoyed their selection, and we really enjoyed the location. Would love to go back, very chill vibes and the people there were all so friendly and happy, patrons and employees alike - a rare occurrence in Massachusetts!

    Sitting outside on a sunny Sunday afternoon is a good experience…read more 5-stars for the best beer around Boston, however, there are two reasons for deductions: 1. A Pilsner deserves to be poured slowly (the German 7 minutes rule would be overkill, but a 7 second pour is an insult to the craft), 2. The kitchen took a dive. Previously I thought that the food was excellent, but no more.
