"Bermuda hasn’t historically been known for its craft brewing scene, so you’d be forgiven for not automatically seeking out breweries while visiting the island. This is one of the only microbreweries on the island, and its suite of beers are brewed on site in gleaming silver kettles that are visible from the bar. It emerged four years ago out of owners Freddy Phillips and Cameron Madeiros’s experiments in home brewing, when the popularity of those home brews started to take off among their friends. Phillips spent some time at a brewery in the Netherlands, got inspired, and Bermuda Craft Brewing was born. The real draw here is the exterior beer garden, with its picnic tables, string lights, umbrellas, and a tent to protect from the rain (which is always a possibility here in Bermuda). “It’s a real taproom vibe, grungy but fun and relaxed,” Phillips says—plus, dogs are welcome." - Katherine Cusumano
