    Cheshire Craft Brewing is always a favorite to grab a drink and relax with the company you are with. I always enjoy the selection. Not just one variety of beer. I'm always a big fan of the sours. The staff are always helpful and friendly. Not too loud inside but also rarely empty.

    I thought this was a cute smallish brewery with a welcoming environment. I ordered a flight which came with 4 samplers and chose a few sours, porter/stout. Some of them were good and some of the sours I felt was too much on the sour side. Overall, it was a good experience.

    Really enjoyed the beers here. Space is amazing. I never like wheat beers- but ended up with a full pour of the watermelon wheat - so good and drinkable! Great staff!

    Found this gem close to home this weekend. Clean spacious tap room with indoor and outdoor seating. Ted's Steamed Cheeseburgers food truck serving awesome beer-food. I had the First Time NEIPA- great flavor, smooth. Husband had a Tropical Nor'Easyer NEDIPA which was also delicious. Kid/baby friendly, Cool and relaxed, we'll be back!

    I don't know, maybe it's all breweries, but here at Cheshire craft, one gets that homey feeling. Come in. Grab a beer or in our case a flight. Maybe pick up a game to play or join in with the other patrons for a great conversation. Most of the people here are local folks, I am not, but that didn't matter, we were welcomed in for all discussions and were even given back stories. Great little place for a quick hello

    Great vibe and very good beer nestled in little Cheshire, CT. Tip: try the sours! Also, the outdoor patio is super pleasant when the weather is nice. The staff are very warm and welcoming. Great selection of parlor games!

    My husband ordered and was a huge fan of the Ancho Porter - a very chocolatey beer with a slight spicy aftertaste.

We also had a chicken sandwich and a burger, again we were happy with both. The "Killer High Five" pale lager was very light and delicious and my husband had an IPA that was good. What was most interesting was the "Smoothie" I tried. The bar tender told me these have lactose, so if you're intolerant, don't drink it! And she let me try one of them before I decided on a full pour of the "Hydra Chill" which is a blend of strawberry, raspberry, vanilla ice cream and hot fudge. It took a little adjusting to, I think it was the chocolate taste, but ultimately I have to say it was delicious. Just don't think of it as your traditional beer. Would definitely go back if we're in the area.

I hear their pizza is very good, but we had a dinner in 2 hours, so we'll try next time. Nice atmosphere in the cavernous interior with bar along back wall. A few TV's which could be supplemented if they choose. I tried a "Ri-Wilkie Talkie" NEIPA, and luv'd it! My son had a Rhapsody Czech pale lager and said it was good. We'll be back!

    Front Porch Brewing - Love Neil's Donuts Samoa Pastry Stout!

    Not too long ago I experienced my first beer with Front Porch Brewing and really enjoyed it!…read moreI had Neil's Samoa Donut Stout. This is categorized as a pastry stout and I really like those but have to be in the right mood for one. Preferably during the colder months out of the year. Apparently there are a few variations with the donut stout but as the name implies I got the Samoa version. What makes up in the flavor and texture profile is a sweet, smooth, chocolate, creamy and rich beer that Steve and I shared. A whole pint of this might have been too much for me but Steve and I shared it which made it proportioned quite well. A wonderful start with this brewery and would love to try the other donut versions of this stout! I saw a French Toast one that also caught my eye!

    Front Porch Brewing Company is a craft brewery that opened in Wallingford, Connecticut in November…read more2017. It was founded by business partners James Flynn, Drew Peccerillo, Tiffany Ulrich and Ryan Voytek. Flynn began home brewing about five years earlier in a friend's backyard and eventually moved to brewing on his front porch (hence the name of the brewery). After he started getting better at home brewing, he decided to turn his hobby into a business. The small brewery brews a variety of different styles but mainly brews different kinds of IPAs and Sours. The small brewery and taproom has a one-barrel system and can only brew a small amount of beer at a time. They occasionally enlist the help of brewery collectives such as The Beeracks in East Haven or Twelve Percent Beer Project in North Haven in order to produce and distribute beer on a much larger scale. I've been visiting Front Porch Brewing since not long after they first opened. On my first visit, I ordered a flight which consisted of a Belgian Dubbel, a Session IPA, a Sour IPA, and a Pale Ale. The latter (named "Devil Children") was my favorite and the ABV appropriately clocked in at 6.66%. My most recent visit was this weekend to pick up some new cans that they released. Both new beers were brewed on a larger scale at Twelve Percent Beer Project and were available at both Twelve Percent and Front Porch's taproom. The first offering was a Double IPA called "Leaving So Soon?" It's aggressively brewed with Citra, Strata, Galaxy, and El Dorado hops. It had some lovely tropical notes from all of the different hops. It clocks in at 8% ABV and each can features alternating artwork that sort of resembles tarot cards. The second offering is an Imperial Pastry Stout called "Neil's French Toast Donut Stout". It was brewed in collaboration with Neil's Donuts (with locations in Wallingford and Middletown) and made with a generous amount of their French Toast donuts. It clocks in at 10% ABV and has a delicious aroma of donuts. I later stopped at Neil's to get some donuts to dunk into the beer! Delicious!! Well done everyone!

    I was in the area on a beautiful day and decided to pop into a new-to-me local spot for a drink…read more That's how I ended up at New England Cider Company. It's tucked inside an old industrial park. If you're not looking closely, you'll drive right past it. Outside, there's a casual setup with a tent, whiskey barrel tables, and some umbrellas, which sounds nice in theory, but the grass really needed a cut. It kind of took away from the whole outdoor vibe. I was planning to sit out there, so that was a bit of a letdown. Inside was a pleasant surprise. It's much bigger than it looks from the outside. The bar is right at the entrance, which made it feel like a high-traffic zone, so not ideal for lingering. There was a private party in the main room, so I headed back outside to enjoy the sun. Now to the cider: I asked for 2 samples and ended up with the cider that I didn't actually choose, but hey, I'm not one to make a fuss so I went with it. The cider I wanted was actually pretty tasty, so I might return just to give the menu another try. You know how some ciders are sweet and yummy? The one I got was the kind that tastes sour but has a higher ABV. Still good, but my goal was sweet and yummy. Service was fine but not overly warm. Nothing bad, just not memorable. Would I go back? Sure, on a really nice day. If they had live music, I'd absolutely give it another shot. There's potential here, especially for cider fans, but it's not quite my go-to yet. They did have a very cool bathroom sink. Points for that!

    Awesome cider at this establishment! Always serving new flavors of the season. Definitely worth to…read morecheck this place out if you enjoy a good cup of hard cider.
