2nd Bridge Brewing Company Brewery • $$
642 Hilliard St, Manchester - 8.58 miles

“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.“

East Hartford Brewing Brewery •
776 Tolland St, East Hartford - 8.19 miles

“This review is a part of my quest of visiting all CT breweries. I've been to East Hartford Brewing in December 2023, but decided to pay another visit.

This is a small brewery. It is hard to notice from the road, so pay attention to your map. There are two parking lots available, the closest one is pretty small. No food is sold inside. They have a patio for warmer months and a separate building that only works during warmer months, but I didn't have a chance to visit those. The main brewery space is freezing, it was not insulated well.

The beers here are great. There are multiple styles available: scotch ale, lager, sour, IPA and so on. Generally, one beer per style. The beers are really good. Between the visits, I tried all the beers they have except seasonals. My favorite is Amazing Grace (Barrel aged scotch ale). The beers were available in beer flights of four before, but not during my last visit.

This is an awesome place to visit for any craft beer enthusiast and it is worth a separate trip. I would only suggest going here during the warmer weather.“

Still Hill Brewery and Tap Room Brewery • $
Shunpike Business Center, 1275 Cromwell Ave Building C Unit 9, Rocky Hill - 4.39 miles

“These folks brew great beer. If you need more than that you’re not a beer lover. If they were surrounded by penguins alone on an island Teriffed by trump 200% I’d find them and buy their trump taxes beer. If your phone says they are in Cromwell your smart phone is stupid.“

Concentric Brewing Company Brewery • $$
91 Main St, Portland - 6.96 miles

“Drew and his Concentric Brewing team were fantastic to work with from start to finish. I would highly suggest hosting an event at the brewery if you get the chance. We came with 30 women for a “non-traditional” baby shower including doing a crafting activity. Drew was incredibly easy to work with along the way. The catering from Graze was delicious and the slider bar was a fun element to the meal that our guests loved. The bartenders were super friendly and made us feel welcome and at home. The locals at the bar and at lunch seemed genuinely amused and were very friendly. We loved supporting this local business and hope to host another event at the brewery sometime!“
