15 Best Craft Breweries near Windsor Locks

“Luppoleto Brewing is a comfortable place to spend an afternoon sipping your favorite beverage while playing a game, They offer a variety of craft beers, ciders, wine, cocktails and NA options. The brewery hosts one of the biggest game libraries I have ever seen at a brewery. You can snack on a giant brioche pretzel or other snacks inside the brewery or get food from a food truck outside. The long communal tables often means that you will leave with new friends in addition to a great experience.“

“I enjoyed the beers, seltzer & my time at one way brewing! Met one of the owners and his wife. We had a great conversation. Nice little micro brewery. Great people & I love the logo too. I think my favorites of the night were the Betty Scottish ale and the lime seltzer.“

“Could this spot be any cooler? I grew up knowing all the lore around Dudleytown so this brewery was a must-try. They have food trucks but you can also bring in your own food/snacks. The beer is...wow. So good. The stouts are especially delectable. The place is huge and the outdoor space is beautiful but it was January when we went so we didn't sit outside. But I can't wait to go when it's warm. This place is a vibe for sure.“

“Almost Famous Brewing is this amazing gem-like your fav vinyl hiding in a stack at a vintage store. You MUST try this place. Check out the website and get yourself familiar with all of the choices. They do offer flights so you get a chance to try everything. The most genius piece… Is the customizable, sour beers and seltzers. You heard me… Customizable. There’s a huge array of flavors that you can inject Into a solid sour beer base or a sparkling seltzer base. You will not be disappointed. And the customer service, amazing from start to finish. We felt welcomed as though this were our local neighborhood bar for decades. I would rate this a 15 out of 10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Love this place. Wish I could stop in here more, but when I do I'm always met with a friendly face and an awesome beer. Join the mug club if you can! Love trying out the new beers and Heath & Alan are the nicest around. Don't miss this spot.“

“Solid hang out!Lots of beer options with some really odd/unique ones as well.Wish they still had food, but you can always order from one of the many places nearby and have it delivered or pick up.Super casual atmosphere with board games available to play! Definitely an East Longmeadow hidden gem, spread the word as the brewery is secretly tucked away down Baldwin Street!Most beers go for around $7 per pint.“

“Recently(ish) moved to Manchester and went here for the first time a few weeks ago. Nice spot both times I’ve been and the vibe is very much that of a local haunt with lots of regulars who know each other. Hopefully I’ll be one of ‘em eventually!“

“Wow! What else can I say... this is a great brewery! Our friend introduced this spot to us and what a winner! If you're from East Hartford you may recognize their brews from Burnside like the famous Ten Penny Ale. They're back as East Hartford Brewery with some of their old favorites and more! I got a flight and this was the first time in a long time I liked every beer I tried. My favorites were the Penny Weiz and the Leafy Penny! The inside/outside seating area is so cozy and filled with a bunch of heaters for the chilly weather. What a cool vibe. Staff was awesome as well. And the best part? They're dog friendly!!! They also have a great lineup for food trucks. We'll definitely be back!“

“Awesome brewery.Great range of beer styles on tap and for what I was able to try, they were all great.What I appreciate most was the service. Bartenders were friendly and helpful. Not snobby at all and just down to earth service which I always truly appreciate in a craft brewery. They allow you to sample what you like before commiting which is getting a bit more rare these days.Grabbed a few 4 packs to bring home and if I'm back in the area I will for sure be making a stop again.Lastly, I did sample the restaurant by trying the animal fries and they seemed like a solid indication that the food would be good. Had to leave for a team dinner though so didn't try any actual dishes.“

“Great spot to have a beer. Many quality offerings. No Filter IPA is consistently excellent. Have a number of different options for lower abv offerings, sours, lagers, and other varietals. The manager at the Bloomfield location is knowledgeable and friendly. The food is quite good as well! A must for happy hour or a meet-up occasion with colleagues or friends.“

“I never believed that i would ever see my partner again, until i meet traditionalist Voodoo Temple who helped me in getting my partner back my who left me for over 6months, she is my everything ..All thanks to this Great, who worked so hard in performing the voodoo spells which brought back my Wife.

“I've been here 2 times and ready to leave a review. I visit all breweries I can find, so Broad Brook was on my list. The place can be described as a restaurant with a brewery - you can expect good food and full service here. Nice design decision is that you can check out brewing tanks from the inside.As a brewery, the place is average. Don't get me wrong, beers are fine, but nothing great. I can mention Smoked Rye Lager (out of rotation already) and a Baltic Porter as a couple of memorable ones. The rest are perfectly fine to sip, but they would hlbe hard to remember, in my opinion. On the photo, you can see a beer flight of a stout, Jigawatts DIPA and 2 lagers (which are pretty good for lagers).The food is excellent. I want to mention their Drunken Swine pizza separately, as it's just delicious. All the other items we tried were excellent as well - Buffalo Chicken Quesadilla and Smoked Salmon Salad are on the photo. The place itself is a one big room with little separation. Although about 3 more tables are located near the entrance, before the main room.If you search for a place to have a good food and several beers, then this is the place. If you, like me, like to try new beers only, then this place is fine to check out one time as well.“

“This place is such a vibe!! There were so many events going on, but each area was pretty well separated from the other, so no conflicting noise or anything. Definitely recommend music bingo. We went for Emo Bingo with the band Tell All Your Friends, it was so fun!“

“This place exceeded my expectations. The ambiance was quite friendly and relaxing. The fries with the dipping sauces were to die for. The IPA's were very solid and I heard the strawberry lemonade was top notch. My only complaint would be to have a milkshake IPA on the beer list but beggars can't be choosers. Overall, this place is top notch, especially when you have great company.“

“Good food, nice clean area, friendly staff!“
