I love this place! The vibe, the beer, and now the food are great! Love the live music nights. Both indoor and outdoor spaces manage to stay quiet even when they’re relatively full. So happy they opened a kitchen on-site.
My only wish is that they allowed dogs or had a dog-friendly area in their outdoor space (though I can’t blame them and I’m not removing a star because I understand it’s because they had a negative dog-related incident at one point).

Some of the best beers I’ve had at a brewery in Connecticut! The IPAs are enjoyable but the Island Lager stole the show. Crisp and refreshing, really gives you that beach feel. Place also has a great selection of whiskey and bourbon. And for the non beer drinkers, they also have fridges full of pretty much every high noon flavor. Good place to relax after work.

Fantastic spot! The food is excellent and the portions are generous. The staff and atmosphere make it feel instantly welcoming — and I love that it’s 21+ only.
The beer, bourbon, and whiskey selections are top-notch, and the outdoor beer garden with fire pits creates an unbeatable vibe. Perfect place to relax, enjoy great drinks, and listen to live music!

Great food, made fresh with fresh ingredients. Local meat.
The smoked wings are the best around. The Brisket is fresh and smoked on site.
The beer is all great. I love the pirates and parrots.
I like the fact that they don’t allow dogs or kids. It’s a great place for adults to have a great day/night out.
The music is awesome every weekend they have live music

Stopped after hiking in evening on a Sunday. Craft beer is Excellent! Chatted with owner by great warm fire out back on patio. Great mood and environment with talented acoustic guitar / singer.
On a quick trip, wish I could come back.

Nice brewery with a lot of outdoor seating and a rustic charm on the inside. They have some good selections of beer which were very good. It can be very busy at times and very slow at others. It seems to be very busy when the weather is nice.

Overall a nice brewery with exceptional live music and friendly staff. Clean and spacious, with good acoustics inside and pleasant upcycled seating al fresco. Unpaved parking lot. Several proprietary beers on tap, and there are canned refreshments of other sorts. Food truck on site on the days when the brewery’s own kitchen is closed, but G-d only knows why it takes 45 minutes to prepare an order of jalapeño poppers.

Held my class reunion here this past weekend and it was a success! Dave and Dianne, the owners, were so easy to work with from start to finish. They went above and beyond to make sure we all had a good time. The food was awesome too! Definitely recommend hosting your next event here!

Great little spot on the river. It’s really nice inside with a big fireplace and stage for live music. They have a really nice outdoor space as well with nice size tables and a covered awning.The beer is really good with the Double IPA leading the charge. they rotate food trucks which is a really nice touch.
