“WONDERFUL!! We just had a surprise birthday party for our son at BBC. We worked with Ian Greenfield who made everything so easy! They were excellent with their communication and accommodations. I had several last-minute changes, and Ian was gracious with every change. I would not hesitate to hold another event there in the future. Food was excellent, atmosphere (we had 1/2 of the Helios room) was perfect, and Luke (the person assigned to serve us) was so attentive and provided outstanding service.
I just can't say enough about how wonderful everything was. Thank you, BBC, Ian and Luke for making our son's 30th birthday so memorable!! Jen & Paul Seaver“

“Cool local brewery with a pub and a pizza sections, plus a surprisingly diverse merchandising area (from caps to t-shirts to frisbees). They have around 5-6 different local beer types, so don’t expect crazy variations, but they are unique and tasty enough, plus prices are quite OK. The pizza is also tasty and large. The staff was friendly and fast in serving“

“I purchased this tour as a birthday gift for my husband and we were not disappointed! Nick was an excellent, knowledgeable and very professional guide. We learned a lot about the history of beer and Vermont breweries. I recommend this tour to everyone!“

“Spectacular. So glad they offer flights because it's hard to choose between all the enticing beer offerings. Every one we tried was delicious, And each had a remarkably smooth finish.
The food was also incredible...rich, complex flavors that are intriguing and satisfying.

Above it all was the truly wonderful service. Here's a shout out to Makeda, who's friendly and attentive service made the entire experience so very memorable.

We will be back.“

“Such a fun local brewery in Winooski. Cool atmosphere you can sit inside or outside. Good concert venue also. Food is good. If you get a burger and your hungry I recommend the double. The pretzel is huge. There beer is yummy. Great place to chill and watch the circus of Winooski“

“Saturdays have become my favorite night at Needs. Crystal is always professional and always makes me laugh. Silla is amazing too! They make a great team. My friends and I will continue to go there as long as those ladies are behind the bar 😊

Sad to not see Crystal behind the bar. Hope to find a new watering hole with my friends. Just not the same“
