Some of the best beers we’ve ever tasted…and we’ve tasted a lot!!

I've been meaning to try this brewery for a while now. Glad I finally got a chance to visit. No frills, casual atmosphere. Quality beer on tap. I definitely recommend the Stargazer and the Remington. Happy to have so many quality brewery choices in CT.

This place has been around for almost a decade, and nothing has changed. The quality and consistency is next level!

Great place. Beer is consistently great.

Nice little brewery with other local items available like cider and food. Staff was friendly as well.

This brewery has friendly staff and a good selection of tasty beers. I liked that they had TAYTO chips in stock, but I couldn't bring myself to spend $4 on a snack size bag. The space is cozy and the wall art was lovely to look at. There were dogs inside, so It is pet friendly, good to know!Another perk- if you like spooky places and brewery hopping, look no further. You can wander from this brewery to Stubborn Beauty right down the way without ever going outside- just bring a headlamp and a sense of adventure. You can wander the long, dark hallway connecting the two. A twilight zone experience, especially after a few high test beverages.Do you ever wish you could experience smell the inside of an Asian market without actually going to one? Great news for you. This hallway will serve yet another purpose.It should be noted that you don't HAVE to take the hallway, if you hate having fun. You can walk outside.All in all, Forest City is great. We will very likely be back, and we will bring our spelunking kit for the journey.

Brewer-owner Chris is approachable and knowledgeable. The place is cute and "homie," with lovely art on the walls and a no-volume television taking care of us sports-minded folk. Oh, and the beers are varied, including ciders and sours. Though I'm an IPA guy, i have to give props to the delicious milk stout. And there's pizza with a special process that brings it out real! A little hard to find, but I trusted GPS and my pal got me there just fine.

This is a small brewery that has a nice selection of beer. We enjoyed their sours and IPAs. The bartender was super friendly! They also serve some food like pretzels, pizza, cookies and chips. They also have games. We really enjoyed island time and sweet Mary sour ale!
