Opinion/The Next Draft: Flying Dreams leaves Worcester – for now

For the first time in more than a decade, a brewery will not call the back of Peppercorn's Grille & Tavern home.
In October, Flying Dreams Brewing Co. moved out of the Park Avenue restaurant after Peppercorn’s owner Tom Oliveri opted not to renew the brewery’s lease. Flying Dreams took over the roughly 1,200-square-foot space in November 2015 when Wormtown Brewery moved production to its new brewery on Shrewsbury Street.
Now, technically, Worcester is down to five breweries: Wormtown, 3cross Fermentation Coop, Greater Good Imperial Brewing Co., Redemption Rock Brewing Co. and Bay State Brewing Co.
