“good place. lots of beer.“

“The best place and nice people“

“Hydrate and Variance XI were very good beers. The atmosphere was nice, and the temperature in the taproom was very comfortable. The young lady who served me was very knowledgeable of the products, she was very friendly and welcoming. The only thing that caught me off guard was that my pints were served to me in plastic cups. I had asked if she could pour my next beer in a glass because I wasn’t taking my beer outdoors - I was comfortable staying indoors in the air conditioning. She told me that glassware was not available in that size, only the flight pours are served in glass. I saw you have a really nice dishwasher behind the counter - Is there a chance of transitioning into glassware? Beer just tastes better out of a glass. Thank you.“

“In the area for a week, and have been enjoying the visits to local breweries. Thus far, Berkshire Brewing is the standout! As someone who loves hazies, brown ales, porters, and stouts this brewery did not disappoint! They also have plenty of ales, etc. Highly recommend!“

“Great beer! Food trucks are outside but we are inside where it's cooler. We bought some amazing treats outside and ate them inside! Options are wonderful. Thanks!“

“New City Brewery is a fun spot in town with a large selection of beers and a full bar; at the time they had some fun and festive holiday drinks. The bar food menu has variety — we tried the nachos which was good. There are plenty of tables in the back if you want to hang out, and they have a whole section full of games to play. Our bartender was super friendly (didn’t catch her name though :( ); she let us sample a few beers to help us choose and even told us about an upcoming drag show they were hosting, which made the place feel especially welcoming and LGBTQ friendly. Overall, should definitely check this place out!“

“Went to a concert at Treehouse Brewery & it was awesome 👌 Beautiful night lots of food trucks, plenty of room for all the people (you could bring your own chairs but they had chairs also) Excellent shuttle for parking at Yankee candle making it easier to park. Lots of outdoor restrooms too 😀“
