We’ve scoured the country from Alaska to Hawaii and Portland, Maine to Portland, Ore., to find the bars where you’re guaranteed to sip unmatched suds. Romantic or boisterous, scuzzy or dressed to the nines, the flavor of the places where fine brew is served runs the gamut. Here, the 150 places where craft is king and fun comes in all fashions.
Today: Connecticut.
Eli Cannon’s Tap Room
Middletown, Connecticut
This small, intensely decorated establishment might not boast the most adventurous draft list in the world, but they aren’t afraid to stock Brooklyn Monster Barleywine or Yellow Snow Ale (taps rotate daily). Even the harshest craft critic will find something to enjoy. Plus, you can sit on barber chairs, theater seats and leather couches — much more fun than lame old bar stools.
