East Hartford Brewing Group
Ten Pennies For Your Thoughts East Hartford Brewing Group, East Hartford December 2021 I waffled and wavered far longer than you'd want to believe on how best to present this page.

Evening Sky Brewing Company (Closed)
Not Lyon, It's Good! Evening Sky Brewing Company, Burlington December 2021 The brewery closed in August 2024. Evening Sky caught my eye in 2019 or so for a couple of reasons.

NewSylum Brewing Company
The Hills Are Alive NewSylum Brewing Company, Newtown November 2020 NewSylum is such a doofy name for a brewery... or any business for that matter. It wasn't the founders' original choice, but they were sort of forced into it. But we'll get to that in a bit. NewSylum was Newtown's second brewery and it opened … [Read more...]
