“First time there and we love the vibes. The folks that work there were so kind and welcoming.“

“Love the ciders every time I come here. And dog friendly too! Def my favorite ciders!!“

“Five stars all around ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Love love love this place. I have spent so many hours hanging out here. In the morning it’s so fun to come sit on the couch and read a book — the coffee is delicious! And the coffee menu is really cool and fun. Any latte here is a win. And Hanna is the most incredible and friendliest barista!! It’s also a really fun vibe in the afternoon to come for a beer and hangs. They have vegetarian options for food usually and a great food truck outside. I am all about aesthetic and this place crosses all the t’s and dots all the i’s. My new go-to spot!!“

“This operation is potentially the main reasons CT craft beer has the incredible impact it has. The quality and branding produced here is absolutely incredible. The events are well managed and the food truck support is always surely the right choice. This is always the right answer.“

“On Thursday, 🍻SBC🍻 enjoyed a great time at Cheshire Craft Brewing in Cheshire, CT. We were joined by 3 very good brewery friends and we talked the time away as we sipped a variety of brews. We had been toCCB about a year ago and had been wanting to get back. It is friendly, cozy, and has great beers! Joy began with Orangey Sky, a Kolsch Style Ale, and ended with The Shire, a Chocolate Stout. I had When U Wish, an Irish Red Ale, followed by RAMber, a Roasted Amber Ale. Both of us gave thumbs up to our choices. 🍻SeniorBeerChat🍻 highly recommends Cheshire Craft Brewing…try it…you’ll like it!“

“The brunchy colada is AMAZING. The bartender tonight recommended it to us, he had just ordered it. I only got 1 can to take home, I'm not a huge beer fan (we like ciders more) and I like radlers, and this is both of those combined in a sour, with juice. It's like a summer brunch in a can. Now i need to find where it's sold....“

“Feels like you’re hanging out at your best friend’s house.“

“Super event space, awesome staffers.“

“Beer is great! Several different options.
Great chances at fun like trivia, bingo, comedians, etc.
However, the music they play is always horrific and loud. Can’t even hold a conversation when around the table. Doesn’t matter the day or event, the taste in music makes me not want to come back! Have asked to change but it never happens, and when ask to lower it lasts for a few minutes but goes back up.
Food is great! Love the people that prepare the food!
I will still go here but honestly want to bring head phones to tune out the murder music.“

“Never been to the brewery but if it is as good as the beer I just randomly bought from them, I can only assume it is amazing. Not sure how long they've been around but the beer has the taste of decades of experience. Keep up the good work and send more stuff to Michigan“

“I just got married at Kinsmen Brewing and wow! The food, the space, the stage, the decor....It was an absolute pleasure working with Michele. Everyone was so nice and the day was executed perfectly. People walked out of there saying it was the best wedding they ever been to. I'm so glad I chose Kinsmen!!!“
