Overview
Tucked down a winding country road in Salem, Fox Farm Brewery is a quiet standout on Connecticut’s craft beer scene. It’s set in a beautifully restored dairy barn surrounded by rolling fields, with a tasting room that’s equal parts rustic and refined. There’s no restaurant, no live music, no frills—just really, really good beer and a setting that makes you want to hang out for hours.

Fox Farm is known for clean, balanced beers—IPAs, pilsners, lagers, saisons—all brewed on-site with an emphasis on subtlety and quality. You can grab a pour or a flight inside the barn, or take it outside to the picnic tables on the lawn. It’s not loud or crowded—just friendly, well-paced, and thoughtfully done. If you’re into beer (or with someone who is), it’s absolutely worth the trip.

Why It’s Worth a Stop
It’s peaceful, scenic, and refreshingly chill. A perfect place to unwind with a beer that was brewed just a few feet away.
