8 Best Craft Breweries near Bridgeport

Foolproof Brewing Company - Bridgeport Brewery •
800 Union Ave, Bridgeport

“This review is a part of my quest to visit all CT breweries. I had only heard about Foolproof before, but this was my first visit to the brewery.

The brewery is located in an industrial zone. It has a decent parking lot across the street. The brewery occupies its own big building. You're immediately greeted with an awesome artwork depicting a jester. Behind the gates is a patio area with its own limited set of taps. The main brewery is located inside on the 2nd floor (an elevator is available). The indoor space is huge. So huge, in fact, that it hosts a car on display. I've only been to one room, but I'm pretty sure that there is at least one more available for parties. The atmosphere in the space is great. There is an on-site kitchen, so you can order food. I got shrimp tacos, and they were tasty.

The beer selection is great. There were 14 taps during my visit. You can order a flight of 4 beers, which allowed me to try almost every beer for this review. I enjoyed almost all the beers. I appreciate the selection of pilsners of multiple substyles. But my most favorite beers for the day were Pickleodeon (gose) and Swirl Pop (fruited sour). I rarely pick these styles as favorites, but I loved how mouthfeel they were.

All in all, I will definitely recommend this brewery to anyone. You can hang out in a cool space, participate in their events, or just drink some good beers.“

Caesar Salad

“Brewport Brewing Company will most definitely see me again as the pizza was so delicious and the beer very good. I was with maybe 12 others so I managed to see quite a selection of pizzas, and taste some also. Our server Steve could not accommodate us anymore, he was very caring, made you want to come back to Brewport. I even met the owner and his son, they too were very welcoming. The thin crust, even a little dark made for great toppings, will see you again. Thank you for the lovely ambience also!“

Two Roads Area Two Tasting Room & Experimental Brewing Brewery • $$
1526 Stratford Ave, Stratford - 2.86 miles

“Two Roads Area Two Tasting Room delivers that sweet spot where brewery energy meets laid-back rooftop escape. I went in for a tasting and ended up taking the long way through the menu in the best possible way.

The Road Jam was bright, playful, and easy to sip, while the smoked peach Old Fashioned came in like a slow-burning ember, smooth with just enough edge to keep you coming back for another taste.

The smash burger held its own, but the real scene-stealer was the malt vinegar creamy sauce paired with the sidewinder fries, tangy, rich, and oddly addictive in a way that makes you rethink what fries are supposed to be.

The bartenders deserve their own spotlight. Knowledgeable without being stiff, attentive without hovering, and genuinely welcoming in a way that shaped the whole experience. Service like that quietly elevates everything around it.
Seating was another win. Comfortable indoors, but the rooftop outdoor seating is where the place really breathes. Open air, good energy, and the kind of view that makes you linger just a little longer than planned.

Overall, it’s a great spot to explore the range of what Two Roads is doing, good drinks, solid food, and a vibe that feels like it was designed for unhurried afternoons that drift into easy evenings.“

“To Elicit brewing company Fairfield
I am writing to you as a local mom. This past Friday night my son was mugged in the city he made it to the train and walked down to Elicit and asked to use the phone as his was stolen during the incident in NY. So many places would have ignored a 20 something at almost 2 am… however the staff let him call us and get help to get home.
Thank you thank thank you for your compassionate care of my son…“
