The “Love Handles” department in Craft Beer & Brewing Magazine® is devoted to great beer bars. Here are the three beer bars that we explored in Issue 17 (February/March 2017).
The Dive Bar (Worcester, Massachusetts)
While it might be a dive in spirit, in reality, it serves beers from some of the most sought-after breweries in the country.
WHAT IT IS: The Dive Bar (pictured at top) is a dive like no other—in fact, it was honored by a men’s magazine as being one of the best dives in the country. Today, it may still have its divey looks with an unassuming exterior and a cramped interior, but the world-class draft list was the start of turning Worcester, Massachusetts, from a beer wasteland to a destination of great bars and several breweries.
