Turtle Swamp Brewing

Great small brewery! We are from out of town and it was definitely worth the stop. Very informative owner and a variety of different types of beer. We did a flight of 6 and between the two of us, enjoyed all of them. Cool vibe with indoor/outdoor seating.

The beer here is not good enough for a detour. There are so many good breweries in Boston and the greater Boston area, don't waste your money at Turtle Swamp. If you are in the area and interested in a beer outside, then go up the street to Sam Adams. Turtle Swamp has a decent outdoor area but that's all. The only reason to go is if your family member works there.

Sweet Local Brewery with cool outdoor vibe! Every beer was very good and the staff was awesome! Will definitely come back again!

My wife and I happened upon Turtle Swamp while staying in JP recently. The space was welcoming and the tunes were fantastic -- rediscovering Emperor X was a welcome surprise. The staff was knowledgeable regarding the beers. The owner, John, was incredibly kind and talked with my wife and I for quite some time about the multiple uses of the wonderful word "y'all." The beers were delicious. We brought home some of the DIPA and I really enjoyed the Hopfen as well. John -- if you see this, a "Y'all Means All" sticker is on the way to the brewery. Thanks again for the beers, conversation, and welcoming atmosphere.

I was about to recommend turtle swamp to my team for after-work beers, because they're right in the neighborhood, and I remember enjoying one of their IPAs. I was scrolling through reviews to get some answers about various things when I noticed they recently opposed an affordable housing measure. I will not support a company that is actively destroying the community it operates in. I will not be back, and will be actively dissuading other beer lovers from stopping by.

Such a cool local brewery with great IPAs but also a solid selection of pilsners, stouts & sours. Plus they have a large selection of board games and a spacious patio.

The place has a selection of a handful of fresh beers they make and have on tap. The beers arent bad. I'm no expert on beers by any means but they taste pretty good to me. Not entirely sure why this place had so many toddlers and babies running around as if it were a playground but‍ I guess parents need a drink or 2. I like how they have a open kitchen like area in the back so you can see their setup where they brew the beers, which is pretty cool. The open outside setting is very nice to enjoy the weather. Very popular spot to just sit down and enjoy a beer and socialize with others. Definitely will come back and try more. Wish the place maybe had some music just for extra background noise. If your ever in the area definitely check the place out.

Fantastic small brewery with a cozy friendly atmosphere. While you won't find the latest beer trends on tap, Turtle Swamp has a solid lineup not a diverse bunch of beers. A great local watering hole in Jamaica Plain, the staff is incredibly friendly and attentive and the brewery has a very homey feel.

The outdoor seating is great! Nice small selection of beers and a very relaxed atmosphere. Great place to grab a beer in the JP area. You can bring in outside food as well. Also, important to note they have clean, individual room bathrooms

Great experience! The tables are all spaced far apart and creates the perfect relaxed experience. Beer is delicious, I tried the porter, sour beer, and pale ale and they all were great. Also their patio is super cute set up
