Still a solid brewery with great beers, the Pilsner was amazing and the variety of IPA/DIPAs is great

Keith Hughes

Awesome Beer! Super friendly staff!
Mark the head brewer and owner will make you feel right at home.
Played in the Inaugural Skee-Ball Tournament in the winter of 2025.
Great time. Well organized.
AND ON top of that- Relic has over 20 pinball machines. You’ll love the beer, the people and the pinball. Hooray for Relic Brewing it helped me get through the winter.

Great place to hangout, have some beer, and play pinball!

We came here back in September and we still talk about visiting again. We were passing through from RI and will definitely be back when we are in the area again. Friendly staff, great beer, and a really cool pinball setup with other games like Jenga.

This review is a part of my quest of visiting all CT breweries. I visited Relic before and my experience was consistently good.

The brewery has a big indoor space separated into a bar and a main hall. The main hall can be further divided for private parties. It has many pinball machines to help yoo to spend your time (and money) at the brewery. The kitchen here is basic and offers few food options. I tried their pizzas and enjoyed them.

The jewel here are the beers. They are really good and have somewhat of a variety - there were IPAs, a Helles, a Marzen, Imperial Stouts and a Barleywine on tap during my visit. I have tried all their beers on tap for this review and they were excellent. I'm biased towards Imperial Stouts, so I really appreciate the selection here. My recommendations would be Death by Tiramisu (Imperial stout) and 12th anniversary (Barleywine) for their rich taste. You can order beer flights of 4. There also is a full bar available, and it was pretty good - the cocktails presented had a twist on them and were rarely used in other places I visited.

I enjoyed all my visits to this brewery and will recommend to others.

Nice brewery. Staff was friendly, service was good and the beer was very good. The pinball area was awesome and brought me back to my youth.

Beer great. Outside seating would be nice. Too many little kids running around.

Absolutely love this place have been coming here for years with my family and in laws with their children and never had an issue. Suggested it to my friends who had never been there saying it was a great open space with lots of games and family friendly. I will never return after the treatment we got this evening. Our kids were having a blast (per usual) and on accident a beer glass was broken (has happened before many places) and the so called “owner” came in and basically harassed us and yelled us saying everyone was complaining about our children and that we should leave. We asked him if this was a family friendly establishment to which he responded “it shouldn’t be”. I asked him if anyone has ever broken a glass before and he said yes to which I responded then leave us alone we didn’t do it on purpose it was an accident and he stormed off telling us we had to leave. I have never been so disrespected in my life our kids were not misbehaving and it was embarrassing in front of my friends since I talked this place up to them highlighting the pinball games and fun family friendly atmosphere. I said it to the “owner” and I’ll say it here if they don’t want kids there they should put a sign up outside stating “no kids allowed”. Very pathetic if that was the owner you don’t deserve such power to own a business and you need to work on your poor customer service.

Hosted a small gathering here and everything was amazing! Reserving tables was quick and easy, and we were able to set up decorations/bring in our own food. Great selection of beers, cocktails, and liquor - and great staff too! Recommend this spot to enjoy a beer, or host a party!
