American Fresh Beer Garden in Somerville's Assembly Row to Close

A Somerville beer garden will soon be closing down, as the people behind it get ready to open a nearby brewhouse.

A message sent to us indicates that American Fresh Beer Garden in Assembly Row is having a farewell party that is open to the public on September 30, though it could stay open for an extra day depending on the weather. Somerville Brewing Company--which runs the beer garden--will also be opening American Fresh Brewhouse at Assembly Row around that time, though no specific opening date has been given as of yet, while the American Fresh Brewhouse Brewery and Taproom at Somerville Brewing Company on Ward Street will remain in operation. (The brewery is also where Slumbrew beers are made.)

American Fresh Beer Garden first opened in the fall of 2014.

The website for Somerville Brewing Company (along with American Fresh Beer Garden, American Fresh Brewhouse Brewery and Taproom, and the upcoming American Fresh Brewhouse) can be found at http://www.slumbrew.com/
