From the Archives: Fox Farm Brewery

Since my first visit last June (2017), every time I’m back in Connecticut, I make it a point to visit Fox Farm Brewery in Salem. Not only is their beer top notch, but the barn the brewery is housed in and the surroundings are welcoming. For IPA lovers try libations such as Verdant, Burst and Alta. Taste the freshness in these unfiltered beauties, they are certainly easy to drink. Their Ashlawn coffee stout and Freckled Fields farmhouse ale are just as tasty, although at opposite ends of the palate from each other.   The brewery is housed in a rehabilitated dairy barn and even includes a silo. The wood-lined interior provides the perfect backdrop and the tap handles are actually shovel handles. Full and half pours are available for onsite consumption as well as growler fills to go. Seating can be found upstairs and outside in the warmer weather. Visit Fox Farm Brewery at 62 Music Vale Road in Salem, Connecticut.
