Is it still 21+ at night on weeknights?
A:
Hi Adrian, we are no longer 21+ in the evenings or on the weekends. We do enact a 21+ policy for certain special events, but we communicate that separately. Cheers!

When it comes to Central MA breweries Medusa definitely has one of the best set-ups for the summer.
In addition to the taphous they have a large outdoor beer garden with plenty of seating, a permanent food truck, and live music.
Medusa makes a mean West Coast style IPA which is a nice mix up from all the NE hazies.
If you're looking for a chill spot to throw back a few cold ones this is definitely your place.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Aug 29, 2023
Medusa Brewing Company was on my radar for a year or two now and I was very eager to try it. From a bird's eye view I liked their concepts very much which is often the selling point for me trying out new breweries. Not only is Medusa just flat out cool but my love of Greek myths was what got my attention indeed.
I finally got to try their beer recently and liked it fairly well. Steve and I had two different beers from here and they were fun as well as the names and concepts of the beer solidified my fondness more. Rapid Refresh was one beer that we had. This was a citrusy wheat beer with lemon zest and orang peel. A nice, light beer with low bitterness to enjoy as summer slowly turns to fall but with enough heat present that anything heavy would be uncomfortable.
The other beer was the Duchovni Pilsner. Definitely referencing the actor and the X Files this Bohemian Pilsner we really liked a lot and was our favorite out of the two and apparently an award winning favorite with the brewery staff and the customers. Steve and I weren't any exception and that was enough to bump the brewery to five stars for me. With a clean, biscuity flavors along with clean and dry aspects present this wonderful Pilsner you can easily have more than one of and may give you the resistance to withstand any stony stares because you are drinking bliss.Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 3Oh no 0 - Oct 2, 2023
Spent a couple hours here for food and a few drinks. It wasn't crowded the Friday afternoon we went. The tacos were decent, I enjoyed the barbacoa taco more than the chicken. The chips that came with the guacamole were very thick and difficult to chew, wasn't very pleasant. The beers were good, good atmosphere and friendly staff. It wasn't until after we left we saw the outdoor beer garden around back!

Soooo food is delicious. I went on a Friday around 2-3pm, it was empty so it was easy to talk to staff which were super nice and fun. However, ambience was something to be desired. Sticky floor, unclear of the sent as i walked in, ladies room seemed to have never been checked , like not even the night before .
This spot is for frat boys that don't care.
Beer garden is not even attached to the brewery part, not even visible from it, you have to walk to it. Weird -!: and when near it , it spells of urine and grass is dead and gross and theirs port a potties yay! I mean low key energy that time of day but looked like a night club when you turn the lights on. Other then it was aight!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Jun 3, 2023
Enjoyed my visit to Medusa Brewing. Service was prompt and the folks behind the bar were very helpful. Highly recommend ordering from Taco Gato next door. Trust me, you will want some awesome food to go along with your beer flight. The trivia nights are packed, so pick a different night if you want a quiet drink and dinner.

The salad was the highlight of my experience there, but its too big for the bowl it's served in so do yourself a favor and ask for a plate on the side.
I also ordered a cauliflower taco which was pretty good and well cooked - not too crunchy and not too soft.
There was a good selection of beer to choose from and the staff was very attentive and kind. There was incredible animal art on the wall for sale, too!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Mar 11, 2023
Nice little place on Main Street in Hudson. Not the biggest of bars, which led to a nice feel. Waitstaff was overwhelmed, but fought real hard to keep up and check on everyone. I started with the flights, and was pleasantly impressed by the flavors I received. I also had a Mango Burst, which I also really liked. We chose to get some of the appetizers from the attached restaurant, and flavor wise were happy. They were not the biggest of appetizers, but flavors there. We really liked the stuffed plantation. They also had a live musician, who had a great voice and was entertaining

Here with family and listened to music by Mike Gorgone and now by Paul Courchaine. Both have great choices for music along with a few IPA's our choice tonight is Mangoverse, very nice flavor. Trying their chicarrón snack and it's very tasty and super crunchy excellent pair with an IPA/beer. Keep in mind the serving size is perfect for two people only. If you're in the area Stop in and give it a try.

Great beer menu, service was good. Tap room is always pretty busy. Food is perfect to munch on but not big enough to call a meal so you can fit more beer into your belly! The food was very good. Atmosphere is friendly, a bit loud, live music. It's a pretty cool place to hang out on any type of day! If you're in Hudson and like beer. This place is must!

The do not sell food but you can order from any of the local restaurants and bring it into Medusa's. The beers are excellent. They have usually 6-10 different styles on draft. The staff I swear lives, eats, and breathes beer making! Very knowledgeable!! The bar can get packed fast. If you get a bar stool it's equivalent to shoveling out a parking spot on any street in Southie so keep it!!! They have trivia nights, not for the novice, that draws a crowd. They are expanding soon to accommodate their growing business! Right on! I wish them luck and if in Hudson,MA and you like beer, know you know a "Must See" to fit into your schedule.
CHEERS!!
