10 Best Craft Breweries near Southbury

“I’ve sampled most of the beers in the Watson portfolio, and they are universally excellent. Almost all of them exhibit some unique flavor component that sets them above and apart from other beers of the same style. I’m currently enjoying a Conquering Lion Imperial Stout, a black, oily and extremely potent beer. Sold at a high price-point and worth every penny!“

“Beer is good but we are saddened that they will no longer have the card purchase for $50 for 11 beers. It was a good value. This may deter us from coming. If it is not working for black hog maybe raise price of card a little? We love the beer but beer is becoming expensive at all of the breweries. May stop coming out to the establishments unfortunately.“

“Vast tap selection in a welcoming environment. The staff is top notch and extremely knowledgeable! You’ll never have anything but an amazing experience at OEC! 🍻“

“This review is a part of my quest of visiting all CT breweries. I tried beers from Lasting Brass at bars before, but this was my first visit to the brewery.

The brewery occupies a separate building near a picturesque area with a river. It has 2 separated outdoor patios and a small area indoors. No food is served inside, but food trucks might are onsite occasionally.

I already had several favorite beers from Lasting Brass, because they were not shy to experiment with flavors. So this time I tried all beers they had on tap. Luckily, there is an option to order a small pour. I have to say, that some beers really impressed me. All the beers I tried were solid, crushable and tasty. But the special place in my heart is reserved to their flagship beers - Java Bloom (Imperial Stout) and Contusion (Sour IPA). These 2 were really bursting with flavor, that was complex and layered. On top of the beers, I thoroughly enjoyed the community in this place. It was filled with regulars, everyone knew each other and it was just a really cozy and friendly environment.

I do recommend this brewery to everyone and it is worth a dedicated trip.“

“I first used Graze & Co for my wedding in 2022 and I recently went back to visit my in laws and ordered a grazing board for the weekend and it was great to have to snack on during the day. Ordering was easy and efficient, I can't recommend them enough. It really was not only is a crowd pleaser but also very delicious. I will continue to order from them anytime I go back east.“

“Reverie continues to be a top contender for our favorite craft brewery in CT. Today was another great visit…the 5th anniversary of Reverie’s existence. The live music was great, the beer was great, the souvenir pub glasses were great, the staff is always great, and our group of 8 had a great time! As you can see, it is difficult to avoid the word great when speaking about Reverie Brewing! Cheers‼️🍻SBC🍻“
