Editors’ Choice Tie

Bent Water Brewing, Lynn

Bent Water chose Lynn as the site of its brewery because of the high quality of the city’s water supply, and its attention to quality carries through in all other aspects of its production. The result is a lineup of beers that are carefully yet creatively crafted, including hoppy double IPAs, fruity sours, and refreshing lagers. Find Bent Water beers at liquor stores and restaurants throughout the region, or stop by the Lynn taproom to enjoy your favorites. 180 Commercial St., Lynn, 781-780-9948, bentwaterbrewing.com

Lord Hobo Brewing, Woburn

Lord Hobo launched in 2015 with just one beer: Boomsauce, a double IPA that quickly developed a passionate following. Since then, the brewery has grown but has never let the quality of its brews wane. Today the lineup includes dozens of offerings ranging from hazy and fruit-forward to complexly hoppy. Many of these varieties can be found in retail stores, but some of the most creative brews are served only in the Woburn or Boston taprooms—so stop in and sip something special. 5 Draper St., Woburn, 781-281-0809, lordhobo.com
