Vibe? I mean the Covid killed it... But everything else was awesome. Hope to go back after the covid shit show is over.

What a terrific brewery! Super nice facility with long tables as well as a deck with tables overlooking the forest. Lots of games and books for kids and a super good selection of beer on tap. They also have non alcoholic sodas and apple juice as well as food, guest bottles, chips, etc. Great place and will be back!

Any time I'm in CT this is a must stop location for lovers of sour beers. Many of their own production and guest taps. The owner's father is a beer importer which allows for a diverse bottle selection also. Tap room has rather limited hours but also open other hours for bottle sales.

OEC is probably the most unique brewery in the state of CT. It's in the town of Oxford CT. The vibe is chill and the ambiance is always good in any day you go. I love the location (not the distance) since next to it is a carriage trail where people do hiking, running or walking their dogs. Being an active individual, I like stopping by on the trail the head out to the brewery after. The brewery itself is really nice. Cool set up (small bar) and it's amazing to see the cool ship and gaze at it as you enter to the tasting room. Special releases are always phenomenal!

I have heard about this place for a while and finally got to check it out last Saturday. They have amazing equipment, really great beers, a nice comfortable atmosphere/tasting room. But what really stood out was the staff. Really great folks who like to talk about beer and explain the process behind what you're drinking. Amazing little brewery making world class beers.

Wow. How beautiful can a brewery be. Vineyards, an herbarium, granite fermenters, giant terra cotta pots with beer fermenting in them, an authentic coolship, barrels stacked throughout the property, barns full with fermenting beer, seating outside, seating inside all around the brewing equipment, seating on the wrap-around deck... The place is a beer-lovers dream. Everything about this property seems to resonate in correlation to the method in which they brew: "let's do whatever the fuck we want"

Been only once but never rated but I love these guys. Easily going to be the best brewers in the world soon.
It's like going to the Willy Wonka factory of beer brewing/blending/science/mad science.
Every beer was amazing - then I learned of the BUnited connection and the Schneider & sons. connection - and of course I am in love.
I would leave my current life to live here.
Best place in the World.
I love you OEC.

Awesome place! As soon as you walk in you see brew tanks and coolship room. They some tables and you can have full pours and flights. Atmosphere is hipster farmhouse feel.

Beautiful place, inside and out. Friendly staff and a great selection of their beers. The hours of opperation could be more friendly but aside from that, OEC is a wonderful experience.
