The best brewery around! I love going with my husband and dog to hang out. Helpful and friendly staff
Great beer and coffee! We went for coffee in the morning. Plenty of options, treats and room to sit. The peanut butter cold brew was some of the best I have ever had. They were also very sweet with my son. Staff were friendly and efficient. We also have sat in the taproom and again so much fun and the beer is tasty. On a weekend can be pretty busy but always moving.
Forever my favorite!! Love the drinks, the vibes & all the dogs 🐕
Awesome beer, great environment (love that they allow dogs!), and delicious food/food truck. Cant wait to go back
Variety of brew and libations are always impressive.
Best all around CT brewery for IPA's and DIPA's.
This is a wonderful place it's got a great mix of beers, my server Katie was an All Star prompt, informative, and knowledgeable.
Maybe the best brewery in CT. Love for dogs and incredible beer. Great spot!
Alvarium Brewery has quickly become one of our favorite spots! The moment you walk in, you’re greeted with a warm, friendly vibe that makes you feel right at home. The staff is incredibly welcoming, and their passion for great beer and great service shines through.
The beer? Absolutely delicious! Whether you're into hoppy IPAs, smooth stouts, or creative experimental brews, Alvarium has something for everyone. Every sip is a testament to their craft. We loved exploring the variety of flavors, and each one was better than the last.
The atmosphere is fun, inviting, and perfect for catching up with friends or just unwinding after a long day. It’s a place that encourages connection, laughter, and appreciation for the amazing things they’re brewing.
Alvarium Brewery isn’t just a brewery; it’s an experience. If you’re looking for delicious beer, a friendly team, and a fantastic vibe, this is the place to be. We can’t wait to go back and try more of what they have to offer!
This review is a part of my quest of visiting all CT breweries. I've been to Alvarium before and my experience was consistently good.
The brewery is located in a separate building and has a big parking lot. The place is huge - it has a big indoor space, a smaller indoor private space and two patios. The brewery is decorated with beehive items. The food options are basic, but there are always food trucks on site.
I've tried all Alvarium beers - either on beer festivals, or during my brewery visits. And every time the beers were awesome. There is some style selection available - IPAs, Stouts, a lager, sours, hard seltzers. They also serve beer flights of 4 or 5 so you can try everything. The beers are not rotated often - the majority of the taplist was the same as the year before, but I believe they have a separate line for their experimental beers. I've enjoyed everything I tried during my visit. My favorites in the taproom were Camp Cluster (Imperial Stout) and "Pouring for the neighbors: Wicked Basic" (Spiced pumpkin beer), both have immensely rich and satisfying taste. But I also remember their limited editions of Clusternana (Imperial porter) and BABF Exclusive (Imperial Stout) which were beyond awesome.
I do recommend this brewery to anyone who loves a good beer.

Ask Brian why he declines customers. 3 beers and 4 hours later, sorry I can't serve you. But will be happy to take your tips and money beforehand.
Simply the most pet friendly place you'll ever visit. Beer is amazing and their food truck lineup is great. Try their Presh NEIPA beer... consistently great. They have a couple of wines as well which my wife loves. Staff is super friendly and polite. Ambiance is relax and welcoming.
Great beer and chill atmosphere especially when my guys are cooking here
I've been a fan of Alvarium's beer, so I decided to try their coffee. I was not disappointed!! I will be back for more!!
Best Beer around!
