The venue

Cheeky Monkey is located behind the historic Fenway Park and Lansdowne Street in Boston. Cheeky Monkey brews on-site and during the Taste of Iceland, an exclusive beer, Fagradalsfjall Stout, will be on offer.

The beer is named after the mountain which erupted at the Reykjanes Peninsula in Iceland in March 2021. No beer aficionado can miss this. Cheeky monkey is used to going beyond the average brewery and is a one-of-a-kind venue in Boston. Expect an eruptive experience!
