Nothing original exists. Just recycled ideas dressed in different clothes. But we reject that notion. Maybe some things are borrowed but that doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s been done that way YOU do it! So we\u2019re proud of these entrepreneurs who had the creative ideas and determination to go out on a limb and try something new. The trend we\u2019re noticing in these businesses is A) combinations of services and products under one roof and B) giving back, using a product to shed light on a worldwide problem, or supporting an underprivileged community. We like these trends. We hope these trends are here to stay. <!--more--> 10) <strong>Hopsters<\/strong>  <em>Where:<\/em> Newton, MA  <em>What:<\/em> A brewery that allows patrons to make their own beer.
