The moment I set foot inside, I could tell this place was different from other brew hobby shops. First of all, this guy makes no mistake letting you know he knows how to craft a good brew. The walls are covered in ribbons from competitions that he won. I didn't even bother counting. There must be over 300 of them from all over the country. However, you would never know it from Paul's personality. He was gracious and rather humble considering the amount of success he has had. I explored his shop and just totally "geeked out" over the stuff he has. His prices are very reasonable and he is full of great advice. I don't live in the area but I would make the hour drive to Willimantic anytime I want to upgrade my equipment or get some great brewing advice. Make sure you call ahead because his hours are not always the best but this reason alone is not enough to justify giving this shop any less than 5 stars.

This is one of my favorite places to come for a celebration or just a regular day. The decor is always quirky and fun (giant paper machete figures high up - I assume from their Boombox Parade floats?), service is usually warm, friendly, and down to earth (the owner even came by to ask how everything was, which is a big deal in a building as massivee as this on a weekend night!) Their tap list is huge and I love to get a flight here to sample a little of everything - they offer both brews made in house and lots of local and not so local options to choose from. This day, I got the Willibrew Triptych Fruit Punch Sour, which went down easy and was fun to drink, the perfect amount of fruitiness while still having that sour tart punch. I tried my friend's Willibrew Choccy Stoot Chocolate Stout, which was a little more acidic than I would have preferred and a bit too light on the chocolate flavor for me, but still pretty in line with similar types of stouts. For food, I got the build your own burger with the vegetarian chicken patty, lettuce/tomato, pickles, cheddar, and their wonderful pesto aioli. I love that they've added so many more vegetarian options to the menu in the past few years - before that I did struggle a little bit and the Black Bean Dip appetizer was my go-to, but was not filling enough for a meal. The bun was fluffy and buttery and added to the sandwich instead of just being dry slop (which is what I think of most buns lol). This aioli is awesome and I want to dip absolutely everything in it, although the pesto notes were a little light on this day. For a side, I could choose from fries, mashed potatoes, or cole slaw, and went cole slaw to try to be healthy. I'm picky with cole slaw and actually really like this one - it's more savory instead of how a lot of cole slaws weirdly lean to the sweet side. It was crunchy and not too creamy or watery, just right honestly! I always love coming here and always try a new beer that I typically end up enjoying, since they offer such a wide variety and a good amount of sours (my favorite), stouts, seasonal items, unusual fruity items, and so on. I really should stop gassing it up so much because it does already get quite busy on some days, but I can't help myself - it's unique and unlike anything in the area. The lore, the history in the old post office building itself, the pinball machines and chalkboard in the bathroom filled with weird quotes, the funky artwork - they just all add to its character and the legend. Shout out to Barry if he still works at the bar and his awesome playlists - he gave the BEST service to my friends and I when we used to go hang out at the bar side regularly, he's the best and always made me feel at home.

Coming from New York, I eat a lot of good pizza and am sometimes disappointed in other states. However, I've had good pizza in parts of CT and Trigo was no exception! We started out with the salad which was absolutely delicious and perfect on a hot day. The lemon vinaigrette kept everything light and fresh and the addition of feta was fantastic. I kept going back for more! We were a party of four and opted for two white pizzas: mushroom bacon and shrimp pesto. I preferred the mushroom bacon of the two. The toppings were very generous and the bacon had a nice sweet flavor to it. The crust was crispy and delicious. Shrimp is one of my favorite foods but something was missing for me in this pizza; I couldn't put my finger on it. It still tasted good, just wouldn't be my go to. These pizzas + salad was plenty and we had a few leftover slices. We capped off the meal with a brownie to share with ice cream drizzled in olive oil. I love this combo and the cold hot effect. All in all, this was a great meal in Willimantic! Prices were great and staff were accomodating and nice. I liked the aesthetics at Trigo and the fresh flowers were a nice touch. Would go back if in the area!
