The people behind a Cambridge brewery have some new plans in the works, as they hope to open a distillery, nanobrewery, and taproom in what appears to be a space within a new complex in East Cambridge.
Eater Boston is reporting (via an Instagram post) that the owners of Lamplighter Brewing on Broadway are planning to open Luminati Spirits, with a rendering within the Instagram post indicating that it is apparently coming to Cambridge Crossing near where Cambridge, Somerville, and Boston meet. Very little information has been given about the upcoming business other than the fact that it will be a "distillery and brewery project" based on the Instagram page for Luminati, with the Instagram post from Lamplighter promising more to come over the winter. Construction on the space appears to be starting up now, and if all goes well, Luminati Spirits could be opening in the summer of 2020.
Lamplighter Brewing first opened in the fall of 2016, moving into a space between Central Square, Kendall Square, and Inman Square.
