Hendler Family Brewing Company Is Purchasing Night Shift Brewery

The company behind two well-known local breweries is adding another big name within the local beer scene.

According to a press release,  Framingham-based Hendler Family Brewing Company has agreed to purchase Night Shift Brewery, Inc., joining Jack's Abby Craft Lagers and Wormtown Brewery. With the purchase of Night Shift, the company will become the largest producer of craft beer in Massachusetts, and it plans to keep Night Shift's core lineup including Santilli, Whirlpool, and Nite Lite, while the taprooms in Everett and Boston's Lovejoy Wharf, the three beer gardens in Allston, and the Level 99 locations and Encore Taproom (the latter two are not managed by Night Shift) will continue to operate.

Hendler Family Brewing Company was founded earlier this year by Jack, Eric, and Sam Hendler of Jack's Abby Craft Lagers, who launched the new corporate name when they purchased Wormtown.
