Trillium’s Greenway beer garden won’t return this summer after nearly a decade

Food News

The popular seasonal spot has poured beers along the Greenway since 2017, but a new tenant will take over the space this year.

Boston’s Greenway will look a little different this summer. After nearly a decade as a warm-weather staple, Trillium’s beer garden will not return to its location along the Rose Kennedy Greenway.

“Since opening as the first beer garden in Boston in 2017, the Greenway has been our summer home,” Mike Dyer, vice president of sales and marketing for Trillium Brewing Company, told The Boston Globe. “That location is unique, and has helped us connect with a lot of locals and commuters and Boston visitors. They have been a fun and important part of the Trillium brand since 9, almost 10 years.”

Dyer told the Globe that the Rose Kennedy Greenway Conservancy selected a new tenant for the space after issuing a request for proposals. Trillium submitted a bid but was not chosen. The conservancy could not immediately be reached for comment.

While the Greenway location won’t be returning, Trillium continues to expand elsewhere in the Boston area. The brewery operates locations in Canton, Fort Point, and Fenway, and recently opened a new indoor winter beer garden downtown.

“We were looking to create a new amenity, a new opportunity to connect with our brand during the winter months, when typically you can’t go and enjoy the social aspects of a beer garden due to a Boston winter,” Dyer said.

The winter beer garden, located inside Winthrop Center at 115 Federal St., allows customers to enjoy beers and canned cocktails indoors at what Dyer described as “a comfortable 70 degrees.”

The space is currently open Tuesdays through Thursdays from 4 to 7 p.m. and aims to target downtown workers.

“There’s plenty in store for Trillium fans,” Dyer said.
