Ingredients Features CT Beer Brewery Beer Take Out 60 Connecticut Breweries Still Open For Take-Out And Delivery James Gribbon March 18, 2020 The wave of American craft brewing had already gathered speed and amplitude by the time I started writing about beer for this site back in 2010. I had been scanning draft and bottle lists for years by that point, sparked by the first IPA I'd ever had (a Harpoon, some time before the millennium), asked every question I could think of putting to brewers and reps at beer fests, and tried everything I could, wherever I could. In Connecticut before 2012, that last part almost exclusively meant early beer bars like Delaney's Taproom and The Ginger Man, the rare brewpub (BAR, City Steam), plus taste-and-takeaway only pilgrimages to a very few breweries. My world then is not our world now. Bars with dozens of taps are common, and every corner and county in the state has breweries selling pints, growlers, and cans to anyone old enough to walk through their doors. The wave of local breweries made this new world possible, but for now their doors are mostly closed. Here's what we can do to see them open again.Breweries are still allowed to sell to-go orders, offering pickup or curbside delivery options. This post will list info on breweries, their hours, and links to order online. I won't be able to find them all, so I encourage readers, brewers, and reps to include further info about their operations in the comments section below. Most breweries are small businesses, and all depend from some degree or entirely on in-person sales. Let's help the brewers and staff keep the Connecticut beer culture we love going.BethelBroken Symmetry - food and beer to-go, 203 826 9907BranfordDuVig - cans to-goStewards Of The Land - beer pick up, and vegetable growing demosStony Creek - beer to-goThimble Island - updatesBridgeportAspetuck Brew Lab - taproom open for to-go sales Tues-Fri 4-7p.m., Sat-Sun 2-5p.m.Brewport - call 203 612 4438 to place curbside ordersBristolFirefly Hollow Brewery - call 860 845 8977ChesterLittle House Brewing Co. - porch-side pickupDanburyCharter Oak Brewery - curbside pick up, 203 616 5268DerbyBad Sons Beer Co. - beer to-goEast HavenThe Beerracks (Armada, Bestie, Hoax, Hull's, and Overshores breweries) - to-go 1-4p.m.Twelve Percent Beer Project - takeout, twelvepercentbeerproject.square.siteGrotonOuter Light Brewing - curbside ordersHamdenCounter Weight Brewing - curbside pick up ordersNo Worries Brewing - to-go ordersHartford areaBack East - curbside pick up, 860 242 1793City Steam - takeout and deliveryHanging Hills - pick up 12-3p.m.Hog River - open for to-go cans Tues-Sat 12-5p.m.New Park - pick up, Wed-Sat 2-7p.m.Still Hill - curbside pick up, Tues-Sat 3-7p.m., Sunday 3-6p.m.Thomas Hooker - Bloomfield and Hooker at Colt open daily until 7p.m. for take outProblem Solved Brewing Company-curbside pick up & online ordering.KentKent Falls Brewing Co. - barnside pickupManchesterLabyrinth Brewing - curbside pick upMiddletownStubborn beauty Brewing - online orders and to-go, Mon-Fri 10a.m.-6p.m., Sat-Sun 1-5p.m.MilfordTribus - http://TribusBeer.co/TakeOut to order, call when you arrive 203 723 3715.Milford Point Brewing - curbside pick upMonroeVeracious Brewing Co. - take out cans and growlers noon- 5 or 7p.m.New BritainAlvarium Brewing - to-go orders Mon-Sat noon-8p.m., Sunday noon-6p.m.5 Churches Brewing - cans and growlers to-go, and $20 gift card with purchase of a caseNew HartfordBrewery Legitimus - curbside delivery. http://brewerylegitimus.com/togo-beer, or call the "craft phone" at 860 500 3688.New HavenBAR - beer and pizza, 203 495 1111East Rock Brewing - pick up updatesErector Brewing Collective - take out and delivery (with DeLegna), 203 891 7704Rhthym Brewing - 203 809 2431New LondonTox Brewing - online orders to goNianticNoble Jay Brewing - call 860 739 4077North CanaanGreat Falls Brews: to-go only; open 4-7p.m. daily.Old Saybrook30 Mile Brewing Co. - curbside deliveryOxfordBlack Hog Brewery - online orders, pick up orders Wed-Thurs 3-5p.m., Fri-Sat 2-5p.m.OEC - open to-go only, Mon-Sat 11a.m.-6p.m., Sunday 12-4p.m.PlainvilleRelic Brewing - can sales weekdays 3-7p.m., Sat-Sun noon-4p.m.RidgefieldNod Hill - online ordering and pick upSalemFox Farm Brewery - to go only: https://squareup.com/store/fox-farm-brewerySouth WindsorCT Valley Brewing - online order and pickupSouthingtonKinsmen Brewing - take out beer and pizza, 860 414 7514Witchdoctor Brewing - takeout Mon-Fri 12-8p.m., Sat-Sun 12-5p.m.StamfordHalf Full Brewery - online & pick up only, call 203 658 3631 for pick upLock City Brewing - pickup only, more info to comeStoningtonBeer'd - online ordering and pick upStratfordFairfield Craft Ales - pick upTwo Roads Brewing - order and pickupWallingfordFront Porch Brewing - pick up or call ahead 203 793 7736WaterburyBrass Works BrewingLasting Brass - online to-go orders; 860 417 2581WillimanticWillimantic Brewing Co - take out and pick upWolcottShebeen Brewing - cans for pick upWoodbridgeNew England Brewing Co. - taproom open for beer to go
