Dead Language Beer Project Brewery •
Entrance & parking on Bartholomew, 1429 Park St #115, Hartford

“I just went to Dead Language for the first time this past weekend. I should have gone a lot sooner. I had four of the beers and all were very good. My favorite of the four was Juno, a German Altbier, but all were great! I took home some cans of Paper Tiger, a Czech Amber Lager, so good! I will definitely be heading back soon to try more beers and take more home. So nice to have such good alternatives to the typical IPA's, though I did have Brookie, an IPA, which was also very good. The place has a nice chill vibe with good folks to talk to at the bar, and Chris the brewer is friendly and very knowledgeable. Highly recommend stopping here, especially if you are looking to try some great Czech & German style beers! Cheers!“

Urban Lodge Brewing - Pratt Street Brewery • $$
88 Pratt St, Hartford

“Urban Lodge Brewing on Pratt Street is a great place to enjoy quality beer and a lively atmosphere. Their IPA is really good—smooth, well balanced, and full of flavor—and the overall beer selection is solid. It’s also an excellent spot to watch UConn basketball, with plenty of energy and excitement during games.

It can get a bit crowded, especially during game times, but that really speaks to how popular the place is. Even when it’s busy, the vibe stays fun and welcoming, and the staff do a great job keeping things moving. The crowd, good beer, and game-day atmosphere make Urban Lodge Brewing a place I’d happily return to.“

2nd Bridge Brewing Company Brewery •

“I’ve been going to 2nd Bridge for a few years now and it’s my favorite spot in central CT by far. Not only are the beers delicious, but it’s truly a “Cheers” environment where everyone not only knows your name but also every story you’ve shared before. I highly recommend this pub to anyone who wants a cozy spot that has excellent libations and the finest array of football around.“

“first time there, great selection of beer, great prices and fun atmosphere. Only thing I would suggest is put regular croutons on the Caesar salad and not the pretzel ends, they were very hard and seemed stale.“
