With wood-fired pizzas, burgers made with local grass-fed beef, and cheese and charcuterie boards, Broad Brook Brewing is becoming a northern Connecticut destination for its food just as much as its beer.
But the brewery’s June 2020 opening, more than four years in the making, was preceded by a roller coaster of events. In 2016, Broad Brook’s owners, Eric Mance and Tom Rossing, announced a move across the Connecticut River, leaving their original East Windsor location to construct a new building just north of Bradley International Airport. Construction problems caused extended delays, putting the building far behind schedule and as they finally prepared to open in March last year, the pandemic hit, shuttering state taprooms for months.
