DAY 2:

  • Start your day with a brisk walk or bike up the Assabet River Rail Trail.  Enjoy plentiful scenery including artwork, train pieces, an under-bridge mural, and the river.
  • Spend your afternoon collecting additional stamps in your brewery week passport! Try Clover Road, where they’ve just tapped a new West Coast IPA, packed with citrusy hops and piney goodness.  Then make your way over to Medusa and enjoy a pint from their unique draft list.
  • Stop by Wild Hare for another stamp on your passport and an exquisite dinner. The skilled kitchen team transforms classic dishes and familiar flavors with innovative, exciting twists.

DAY 3:

  • After a relaxing morning, enjoy a walk along the Williams Lake Boardwalk. This 3,000-foot floating walkway in Marlborough connects the woodland trail to the southern half of Lake Williams and is part of a scenic 2-mile loop around the lake.
  • Spend some time in the afternoon shopping at either the Solomon Pond Mall which features 90 stores or at one of the unique shops in Marlborough.
  • Finish your brewery tour with two more stops: Flying Dreams Brewing Co., known for its robust, unfiltered craft beers with bold, unique flavors, and Tackle Box Brewing Company, where every pint tells a story and each visit is an adventure.
