Discover the brewing history of the Elm City!
Known as the Milwaukee of the East Coast in the 19th century, New Haven has been home to dozens of breweries and brewers since the 1600s. While not all of them will be discussed in detail, the episode highlights the historical Fresenius and Sons Brewing Company, Rock Brewery, and Hull Brewing Company. Currently, Erector Brewing Collective and East Rock Brewing Company are continuing the tradition of welcoming visitors to their Connecticut taprooms, while the resurrected Hull's brand and the progressive Rhythm Brewing Company are also producing beer in town.
Suggested beers when visiting: American Flyer Electric Thunderbolt IPA (Erector), Hull's Export Lager (Hull), and Unfiltered Lager (Rhythm).
