13 Best Craft Breweries near Branford

“I live in Branford and I've been going to Caius since they opened. These guys kill it every time I'm there. They have a great selection and are delegent about keeping a fresh rotation of new beers. Yes, they are a little more expensive than other brewers, but they are well worth the extra cost. Every barkeep I've dealt with knows the beers well and does a great job on correctly serving the right pours for their respective beer. If you're a beer lover, I would highly recommend this brewery.“

“We visited for the first time yesterday and the service and food was fantastic! As old Saybrook residents we think this is a fantastic business to bring to the town. There was a fantastic selection of drinks and we can’t wait to come back again soon!“

“It’s delicious!! Great spot to check out live music and the beer is and location is terrific!“

“Love everything about them. Every beer is always phenomenal. The owners and staff are all amazing people who are a joy to be around. This is hands down our favorite craft brewery in all of CT. Last but certainly not least, they’ve put in hard work to transform this space from its legacy days of an old (essentially abandoned) factory into the work of art it is today. Step inside from the surrounding neighborhood and your mind will be blown - especially when you see the beautiful upstairs lounge!“

“Love the vibe @ No Worries!“

“The brunchy colada is AMAZING. The bartender tonight recommended it to us, he had just ordered it. I only got 1 can to take home, I'm not a huge beer fan (we like ciders more) and I like radlers, and this is both of those combined in a sour, with juice. It's like a summer brunch in a can. Now i need to find where it's sold....“

“Never been to the brewery but if it is as good as the beer I just randomly bought from them, I can only assume it is amazing. Not sure how long they've been around but the beer has the taste of decades of experience. Keep up the good work and send more stuff to Michigan“

“Feels like you’re hanging out at your best friend’s house.“
