Brewery Legitimus

We’ve been coming here regularly for a couple years now, it’s one of our favorite weekend date day activities. The beers are great and rotate regularly which is always leaving us with something new to try or excitement when an old favorite circles back in rotation. We officially joined the mug club this year and it’s been a great perk! Increased the volume of a pour with some discounts on merch and birthday perks. The staff is always friendly and the atmosphere is exactly what we are looking for, relaxed and industrial, casual. Only suggestion is adding a wall of games somewhere but you can always bring your own which we do on occasion. Excellent food trucks in rotation, haven’t experienced any we haven’t enjoyed. They have really fun special events (we did octoberfest this year and it was such a fun time). We even hosted my fiancés 30th birthday party here and it was a blast! It’s been a year and we all still talk about it. Continues to be our favorite brewery, and it’s an extra perk supporting a local small business ! Highly recommend it to anyone in the area looking for an afternoon stop

Visited on August 30 for the first time. Beautiful space inside and out with plenty of room to sit and relax. Patio has greenery and flowers, very pretty during summer. The menu is great! Lots of choices and everything looks delicious. We tried their lavendar lemonade and the Stone Table white wine and both were excellent. Highly recommend to stop by, they are open during the day as well as nighttime.

Brewery Legitimus is a local, independent, and family owned brewery in New Hartford, CT. It is owned by the Sayers and it opened in 2016. It's located in a former 8500 square feet factory. There's a spacious taproom and event space. The parking lot had plenty of spaces as well. I've been wanting to visit this place forever. It's also so close to home. I'm a craft beer lover and love supporting local businesses. The taproom had plenty of seating when we went. You can buy cans to go, they had an ice cream cooler, and they host many food trucks and events. Not only do they serve craft beer, they also serve cocktails. I've had their Clusterfruit sour beer; there are blackberries, raspberries, cherries in that concoction. I am a fan of the sweet and fruity tartness. I've also purchased their Equal Heart to go, it's a blonde ale with cranberries, loved it. I love their rainbow hearts design on the cans, love is love. There are ciders, seltzers, and wine to choose from as well. I really enjoyed their cocktail; it's a pinkish drink and I believe it was called cold night or something. I forgot the name but it was so good! Sweet and sour and tangy, I want to go back just for that lol. The customer service was friendly. I love that it's kid-friendly too. Overall, definitely up there now with one of my favorite breweries.

This review is a part of my quest of visiting all CT breweries. I've been to Brewery Legitimus many times throughout the years, and it never disappointed me. The brewery is spacious enough: the indoor space is separated into two rooms, which makes it easy to have a private event. There is a patio opened during warmer months, as well as several tables near the main entrance (a smaller patio). The place does not serve any food, but the food trucks are usually onsite. Also, the taproom, received an upgrade recently and now you can order cocktails from their bar. The selection of beers is fine, although it is IPA-heavy. But you can also find several other styles on tap - Marzen, Kolsch, Ales, etc. The place not only serves beer flights of 4, but also sells 6oz drafts, so you can try more beers. I've had almost all the beers they sell during past visits (and refreshed them with new releases during the latest visit). The beers are not frequently rotated, so I only saw 6 new beers compared to my visit several months ago. The beers are always solid. It is safe to order any style and be sure that you will have the best quality. I'm not into IPAs, so from their selection I will definitely recommend their Barrel Aged bottles - Lord Dobson's (Imperial Stout) and Maple Girl (Belgian Tripel). Both of those have an immensely reach barrel taste. This is definitely a good brewery to hang out with your friends and have a decent beer.

Great place. Amazing beer. Fun vibes. Friendly staff. Always a must stop when in town.

Great brewery with lots of good beers! We brought our own snacks, but there was a food truck out front that smelled really good. Love to come back here again

Had a rehearsal dinner for about 60 people in the back room! Had a couple hiccups at first but they were taken care immediately as soon as the owner was aware and graciously made better than original!!! Everyone had a wonderful time and the service was excellent and can’t say enough about the wonderful beer and cider , atmosphere.

Brewery is great, love the new can redesigns. Beer never disappoints and the staff is great. They also have great food trucks on a regular schedule. Definitely worth a trip out to visit them. Highly recommend!
