In the world of craft beer, a “flight” is a small sampling of a brewer’s work, a showcase of different styles, colors, and tastes of beer—something of a drinkable mini-exhibit.

This month, though, the brewer will be showcasing a different sort of work—one featuring far less hops and barleys. Starting Friday, Nov. 17, Endicott’s paintings will be on display in the Art in the Storefront gallery on Butler Avenue.
