Back East Brewing - Bloomfield

This was our second brewery of the day. We ended up sticking it out the rest of the day here because we really loved the ambience of the place. It was a jazz band there, which was different and there was a lot of seating outside and end. There was also a lot of dogs there, which I always like to see as I'm looking for places to bring my dog to typically we got some appetizers off of a lunch truck that was there, they don't serve their own food, but they do have a rotating food trucks. The beer was good as it was the selection there was plenty to offer. I definitely will be coming back again.

Fun, mid sized brewery with a great wait staff and large beer menu. This is a solid brewery in that they have something for everyone. The snacks are just ok, but they supplement that with rotating food trucks and we come for the beer and setting anyway. Ice cream man is a solid IPA and their other flavors are fun including Double Scoop or Bubble Scoop, Triple Scoop, lil Scoop, etc. they have some great bottled and aged selections as well. Overall, great little place that always treats its customers right. The brewtenders are well versed on their products and super attentive. Try it if you haven't been before, it's a pleasant surprise.

Place is great some guy vinny is a real piece of work . Makes the whole place nasty to me get rid of vinny and the pkace is great

It's been several years since I've visited Back East and I feel like I went to a completely different brewery! I was blown away by the extensive renovations they've done and the space, both inside and outside, is absolutely stunning! The beer was just as excellent as I remembered and I loved that the Square Peg Pizza truck was on site on this particular day because there is no better combination than great beer and perfectly cooked pizza. I can't wait to return and sample more delicious beer and enjoy their gorgeous new space.

First time here in several years and they did one hella upgrade!!! If you're familiar with the CT craft beer scene, you know Back East. Their beers are everywhere! They have so many brews on tap so there's something for everyone. They have a whole new gorgeous patio out back and the interior is completely redone since we last visited. Definitely will be here more often!
