Next Draft: Charlton's Tree House now largest brewery outside Boston

John is particularly adept at drawing the essence from fruit in a finished brandy. The majority of the fruit in our Eau de Vie is grown at our farm in Connecticut. Over the years, we have built a highly capable ecosystem for creativity. The symbiosis between our beer, coffee, cider, wine, farm, and distillery programs makes us uniquely prepared to produce spirits that will surprise and delight you with both their inspired tastes and the artful ways in which we craft them.
No distribution, no problem: Tree House Brewing Co. now ranks as largest brewery outside Boston
In 2019, Wachusett packaged and sold about 31,000 barrels of its own beer. Last year, that total fell to 27,250, which puts Wachusett well below the top 50 biggest breweries in the country. Montauk, on the other hand, just cracked the top 50 last year, reporting 49,000 barrels; just how much of that production came from Wachusett is unknown.
Right now, no nearby places on BeerMenus have their beer.
Crushing demand for our beer and visitation often led to a poor experience at our brewery in Charlton. But, in keeping with our longstanding promise to you, we used time during COVID to make moves. In 2021, we invested in two communities, Sandwich and Deerfield, in order to spread out the demand for our products and experiences. This has worked incredibly well - the experience of visiting Tree House is vastly improved from 2019 because of these investments and the tireless energy and enthusiasm of our team. In fact, we recommend visiting it purely as a beer to go destination for now given it's efficiency and excellent selection.

We cannot accomodate you picking up someone else's order who has a different time slot. The reason for this is we prepare your order in advance and accomodating changes such as this would risk delays to our guests. We strongly recommend that you keep all of our beer cold at all times prior to consumption. It is packaged cold on industry-leading equipment, kept cold, and delivered to you cold. If maintained in this manner, our hoppy beer remains vibrant and fresh for 12 weeks or more - our classic styles and non-hoppy beers retain bright, youthful character for six months or more when refrigerated.
Kola, our liqueur, is made with a custom-malted mash of roasted and chocolate malts, approximating chocolate-forward coffee flavor before distillation and remaining as a beautiful and powerful single malt spirit after it. The subsequent coffee infusion results from an exacting in-house roasting process to find the smooth, chocolate-forward flavor profile we were in search of for our liqueur. The outcome of these efforts is greater than the sum of its parts - the flavor profile is remarkable in its depth, character, and enjoyability. We have constructed the space and set aside resources to embark upon an irresponsibly ambitious bourbon program.
Constructed to be more dense and fluffy than the average Tree House Double IPA, Eight pours a turbid orange color in the glass and puts for the most potent, unique Tree House melon aroma in memory. We taste and smell over ripe citrus, sweet honeydew melon, a distinctive lemon-lime note, and papaya sorbet. Throughout it exhibits our beloved House character in spades, balanced by a zesty orange rind-like finish atop an extra creamy mouthfeel. Equally beautiful is the appearance of this beer with its dense, billowing head and clingy lace - attributes that carry aroma and entice your palate prior to taking a sip. There has not been much to love about this year, but it’s certainly one we won’t forget. Though we were not able to celebrate our 8th anniversary as we had planned, we wanted to acknowledge Eight years of Tree House in the form of a beer that encompasses our progress and presents you with the distillation of our efforts to date.

We constructed this beer around hops we currently have plenty of access to, allowing us to re-brew it on a (relatively) consistent basis. We smell a ton of orange on the nose, with complimentary notes of peach and passionfruit. The flavor is similar with a blast of citrus fruit & orange quickly followed by spicy grapefruit, and earthy dankness.

Today we are introducing a new project that aims to find the limit of what is reasonably enjoyable in a hoppy beer. There is no doubt the idea of ‘more’ is appealing and utilized by breweries across the world, including Tree House. What value does ‘extra’ dry-hopping bring to the enjoyability of a beer? With this project, we will pull back the curtain and find out. We strive to pre-pack orders ahead of time as much as possible. On weekends, holidays and special release days there may be a wait.
Tree House Brewing Company
It's unusual for a brewery to offer great beers, outstanding food, live music from nationally recognized acts and the possibility of hosting birthday parties, business functions and even weddings, but Tree House in Deerfield is indeed an unusual place. We have developed an easy procedure for you to place an order in advance and select a time slot for pickup. Feel free to arrive at the brewery before your pickup time to enjoy a draft pour from one of our two bars. Pre-purchase of draft tickets is no longer necessary.

The long-term vision for Tree House in Tewksbury is to curate a gathering space for friends, families, and groups to celebrate life and each other. As a gateway to points in the city and recreational activities to the north, we hope to build a cultural destination worthy of the region in which it resides. Our roots are deep in the fabric of Massachusetts, and more broadly, New England, and calling this gorgeous sliver of the Merrimack Valley home fills us with pride and purpose to do even better on your behalf. In Deerfield, now less than a year old, we lent our entire facility to the Franklin County Region of Governments to host an extensive COVID vaccine clinic. In Sandwich, we participate in yearly canal clean-ups and have contributed over $80,000 to ten benefactors as part of our Hello Cape Cod initiative. In Charlton, we participate yearly in Earth Day activities, donate time and energy to the Festival of Giving Trees, support several nearby charitable initiatives, and donated yearly to a nearby nature sanctuary.
Beer to go must be ordered in advance and is first-come, first-served. Peruse Deerfield’s draft list here, and have a look at our Deerfield Visitor’s Guide if you have any questions. Unsurprisingly, the people behind the brewery have been influenced by both New Haven-style pizza and New York City-style pizza, and it shows. The charred, blistered, bubbly crust; the crispiness on the bottom and chewiness on the top; the mix of shredded and grated cheeses; and the use of seasonal, locally sourced ingredients all make for pies that may just bring some people here not for the beer but the pizza.
For a virtually line-free experience, we recommend visiting Monday-Thursday. Boston Beer, according to BA data, sold some 1,700,000 barrels in 2020, down 16% from 2019. Still, Boston Beer ranked as the largest regional brewery in the country, beating out Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. in California by more than 580,000 barrels. Jack’s Abby, now the second largest brewery outside of Boston, reported only a 3% decline in 2020 despite losing 40% of its production volume early on during the pandemic when it lost all of its on-premise accounts — bars and restaurants. Even as the 40,800 barrels Jack’s Abby sold fell short of its goal, co-founder Sam Hendler said the brewery feels blessed it managed even that amount.
So, if you intend to purchase beer as a gift (or, for yourself!) keep it cold and you will be in great shape! Like anything perishible, warm temperatures will accelerate these timelines. Sandwich is open for draft and beer to go, and you can place your beer to go order here. The company subsequently bought a farm in Woodstock, Connecticut; the building in Deerfield, once home to a publishing company; a facility overlooking Cape Cod Bay in Sandwich; and the entire Tewksbury Country Club. And some breweries are true destinations, multipurpose facilities that bring people in for live music, art shows, trivia nights, arcade and board games, corporate functions and more.
The majority of our mash constituents - mainly corn, wheat, rye, and barley - are organically grown and malted in New England. In time, we will make barrel-aged beer in spent barrels from our bourbon program, enabling a level of individuality that would otherwise be impossible. Tree House locations bring a substantial amount of economic activity to the areas that surround them. To begin, we will hire thirty to fifty staff members in order to get operations off the ground with opportunities likely in the future. If you are interested in working with us, stay tuned to the Join Our Team page because we will begin hiring soon. Full-time team members enjoy fully-covered health insurance for themselves and their families along with a host of other benefits.
One spot that seems to fit in this category sits at roughly the gateway to the Berkshires. The recovery from that point proved at times chaotic and stressful, he said, requiring Jack’s Abby to shift 100% of its production to cans for distribution and brewery to-go sales. The canning line ran seven days a week, with two separate teams manning the operation. Tree House Brewing Co. packaged and sold the most beer in 2020 — not including Boston Beer Co. and Harpoon Brewery — selling 41,500 barrels out of its Charlton brewery, according to data from the U.S. Those sales also make Tree House the top-selling taproom in the country over Braxton Brewing Co., which sold 16,050 barrels out of its Kentucky taproom. The primary brewery, coffee roastery, and distillery is located in Charlton, Massachusetts.
