Barrel House Z
Weymouth, MA
Pete - I visited the taproom at ~8pm on a Saturday in April. They appear to have live music, though none was playing while I was there. They have a bunch of beers on tap, and offer 5oz pours for anywhere from $2.50-$3ish, so you can try a bunch. Pretty small-ish area in the taproom, but they also have a space reserved in the barrel room that you can hang out in, where people were playing cornhole while I was there. They have a bunch of board games too, including Lord of the Rings Risk. Might have to go there for like 8 days in a row from open to close in order to complete a game of that, though I suspect alcohol will speed up Risk games. They also have a bunch of beer to go.

Belgian Milkshake IPA - 4.3% ABV Pete Definitely get the Belgian portion, though I don't really get any 'milkshake IPA' flavors or textures. Still, a pretty solid Belgian beer. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |

Barrel House Z Adeline
Stout - 8.7% ABV Pete Great stout. I believe the flavor I tasted the most was toffee, but I wasn't sure (I was very drunk, I trust my drunk ratings of beers if I actually formed coherent words when I described the beer). Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |

Barrel House Z BAM BAM
Imperial IPA - 8.8% ABV Pete Smells like a citrus bomb. Tropical citrus flavors mostly, maybe a tiny tiny hint of bitterness to balance it, and there's no way you would think this was strong. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |

IPA - 7.3% ABV Pete Very good IPA. It's malty going down, with a pretty bitter finish that isn't overwhelming. Enjoy. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |

Barrel House Z Sunny & 79 - Tequila Aged
Pilsner - 6.3% ABV Pete I think tequila barrel aged beers should be a thing, and pilsners take really well to adding flavors, since they don't have much on their own. This has got a little bit of spice to it. Very hard to describe, but definitely worth trying. Ratings: Pete - 5 Shyoh's |

Barrel House Z Townie Strong
Imperial Red Ale - 9.4% ABV Pete This definitely tastes strong, but it's pretty good. The booziness balances well with the sweetness from the red. Ratings: Pete - 4 Shyoh's |
