Love that they offered two different flight sizes. A cool option if you want to try a bunch of things but want to share. Myself and each of my friends got a flight and the trays they used were extremely sturdy and the handle made it way easier to carry than those at other breweries. The beer was tasty, though nothing blew me away.

The aroma was grasping and fresh. Overall, a wonderful brewery in the area. The price is to be expected from a local brewery. It was worth it. The ambiance was pleasant. The waitress was prompt. Waitress/server/cashier. The inside was clean and they have good parking. Overall, i would come back. I would even be interested in asking if i can do poetry readings from my own books at one of their open mic nights. And maybe offer book singings there as well. Definitely check them out if you are in western mass and can not find fresh, tasty brews. We bought three year old beer recently from a convenience store in the area. Save yourself any disappointment and get a month old batch or maybe less. Whew!

Not 9 different IPA's with a token lager. Pilsners, lagers, Mai Bock, a rice lager and cask beers. These people really have it right. And the music! OMG!! A turntable, an amplifier and about a thousand record albums. Every genre from Classic rock right up through the 2000's. And, as if that weren't enough, your dog is welcome! Me and Odie will be stopping in today (Saturday) for a couple of pints and, oh yeah, dog treats at the bar!!! One more thing. The staff are extraordinarily adept and skilled with the products they sell. I'd give ten stars if I could.

The latest sour offering, this Berliner Weisse style beer is a classic German wheat-based ale. It features a light, tart flavor profile that's not too sour.

You can tell this is a local spot seemed to get pretty full at the bar in the middle of the day. They not only have beers and cocktails but also brick oven pizzas, wings and sandwiches.

Loved how they had 100's of mugs with numbers on them for frequent guest that pay once a year for I think 2 free drinks a month. Not super sure how that went . My husband enjoyed his beer flight .

They were out of something we really wanted on their beer menu and went with a sampler that was pretty decent-maybe the cherry pie sour as a favorite? I did not notice a food menu and there weren't any games or activities, so we chatted. Tables in here are smaller- so no big groups. All in all, a nice place, but I don't know if I caught onto any specific vibe that would make me want to come here over any of the other breweries in Westfield. I.e. , Small space with no outdoor seats = not dog or child friendly. For a delicious sour, I might recommend also Great Awakening or Tin Bridge.

Bright Ideas is part of an RV hospitality program that let us stay here in their parking lot, which was pretty darned awesome. It also meant that I didn't have to count beers and be concerned about driving. This is a massive space with lots of interesting side rooms and special places, which was helpful as I could concentrate on writing Yelp reviews and not be distracted by singing of the evening's entertainer. The bartender was friendly and helpful - Eric? - in giving me a tour and ensuring that the camper van was parked in the right spot. It was a surprisingly quiet evening considering it is adjacent to the airport. [Review 1140 of 2025 - 1281 in Massachusetts - 24693 overall]

Several months ago, I was following my GPS to visit someone when this place caught my eye…read more It was so tiny. So hidden away. I mean, who the hell has even heard of Gilbertville? I made a mental note to come back another day, when I had time to explore the area. Spoiler alert: There's not much there to explore in Gilbertville. Although, if you're like me and willing to drive 10 miles out of your way to save ten cents a gallon on gas, they do have the cheapest gas around. But I digress... Yesterday I pulled into their almost non-existent parking lot and wondered where people park when they are full. I was there at 3pm, so it was empty aside from myself, two other people, and a dog. The space was quirky and eclectic, with random art on the walls, old pieces from antique shops, and a bar lined with metal seats. They also had a few tables. It was all dark old wood, and I imagine it would be an awesome spot to hit on a cold winter's day. I settled myself into a seat at the bar. Just a warning: those seats must have the AC blowing directly onto the metal, because my poor vagina felt like it went through a cold plunge. I was wearing shorts, but the freezing cold metal felt like it penetrated straight into my cervix. If you opt for bar seating while wearing shorts, pack a sweater for your genitals. Icy nether regions aside, this place was a perfect little hideaway to hang for a bit and enjoy some well-crafted beers. They don't serve meals, but they do have snacks you can purchase if you need some sustenance. Their white stout was PHENOMENAL, one of the best beers I've had in a while. It was creamy, sweet, and SO easy to drink. It gave me a cream soda vibe, but with a 7% bite. Solo factor: 7/10. The place was pretty empty when I went, so it felt very comfortable to be there by myself. But it's tiny, so I don't know if it would have that same vibe once it's packed. The bartender was awesome, and very attentive. The seating isn't necessarily ideal for someone who wants to spend hours hanging out there, but it was fine for the time I was there...and there were also other options for places to sit. Also, I saw that they have an outdoor area where you can sit, which I missed on the way in. And I would be remiss to not mention that their bathroom was freakishly clean for a brewery bathroom. I've been to two places over the past few weeks where I walked into the bathroom, saw what was waiting for me, and thought "Fuck it, I'd rather get a kidney stone." Yuck.
