Elicit Brewing Co - Manchester

Wouldn’t accept my ID when I’m 26 years old and was visiting with my dad. We are from Ohio and have the same type of ID, both are obviously real and current. They couldn’t tell me why my ID was fake either. The “manager” had to come out to check and asked for any other form of ID so I showed them my pilots license. The “manager” looked at this license for less than 2 seconds and said “yeah you’re good” despite him clearly having zero clue where the birth date was located. The staff here are incompetent and are playing favorites for who they let in. There were multiple other people who walked in/out during this time that definitely did not look over 21.

A large place filled with people. The food looked amazing but we didn’t eat. My husband liked the beer and said the mixed drink he ordered was not strong. The patio area was great. A band was playing that I found to be decreasing from the experience as in my opinion, they weren’t very good.

Visiting from out of town and heard about this brewery. The bouncer stopped me at the door and accused me of having a fake ID. I am 26 and I have an Ohio drivers license. Do not go here if you are not from Connecticut, they will refuse you entry because of untrained staff. I also saw groups of what looked to be underaged girls go inside without being asked for ID. I do not recommend a visit here, will be going to different local breweries during my next visit.

I hosted a small party at Elicit on a Sunday night and it was the easiest thing - the Private Events Director, Lindsey, was so easy to work with and all of the staff was wonderful.
The food was fantastic. We only had the unlimited N/A bar package, but my guests enjoyed the full bar and the patio was an added treat.

We recently hosted an event at Elicit Brewing in Manchester, and it was a great experience from start to finish! The staff went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly, and the event space had a great atmosphere that was perfect for our group.

Highly recommend Elicit Brewing for anyone looking to host an event or to just enjoy a great night out. We will definitely be back!

Everyone on staff from the beginning planning stage to the day of the event worked well with us. The event itself was great as the food and service and especially the beer was perfect. Wish I could get the Helicopter Dad up here in NH.

A great place to relax with great selection of beers

They don't let you in with your service dog. Horrible experience.

Had such an amazing time and loved the band Sunset Drive. Danced with people I don't even know and sang at the top of my lungs so fun. They played excellent music, songs we all know and love. The whole crowd had a blast and really added to the fun atmosphere. Highly recommend Elicit and the band Sunset Drive.

I had my dad's 60th birthday party here back in July, and it was such an amazing day! The food was out as scheduled and it was delicious! The bar was busy all day, and the patio was a great space to host our party. The staff were very kind and accommodating, and I'm grateful to have chosen Elicit for this special birthday party!

All good but your dj sucks

We came here by accident after feeling a negative vibe at another local brewery and what an awesome find! Fantastic beer selection, really cool industrial vibe inside, and totally crave-able pizza! My wife and I are IPA snobs and we were totally taken by surprise by the Coconut Incident IPA… what a great combo!! Elicit made our unplanned trip to CT an absolute blast today!

Came to Elicit for a baby shower. Very cool atmosphere inside. Great bartender- excellent drinks and good beer! I had a pumpkin lager and wheat beer! My friends also loved their mojito and tequila -based espresso martinis. Good food too!

Honestly, I had no idea what I was walking into. This place is hands down the best experience I've had going out in a while. To best describe this place is that it's a cross between a Brewery, Bar, Arcade room, and a club all mixed in one lol. This place is MASSIVE with two floors. We went there for our buddy's 40th birthday with friends and family members. Kid friendly. Our VIP room was downstairs and filled with arcades and catered food and drinks. The upstairs is more adult friendly with VIP rooms lined up the sides with different themes, a dance floor with multiple bars, a DJ that comes on at 10pm, and too many more features to mention lol. It's basically an adult Dave and Busters but on steroids with an amazing brewery, club, and yet it's kid friendly(besides upstairs after 10pm). Not to even mention the hundreds of amazing beers on tap. I was amazed prior to finding out there was a second level half way through the night.. it's been a week and I'm still absolutely amazed by this place. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ELICIT BREWING CO AND PROMISE YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED!!!???

Parking: Plentyyy of parking. It's where Adams Mill used to be.

Add to the front door your surprise with a numerous sofas the lounging off to the left is where you order the pizza and food walking straight to the rear you have all the beer servings apps.
Upstairs you have a cocktail bar and that usually has a DJ at night.
Seasonally is a back patio with its own bar and stage.
Lots of parking spots.
