COVID-19 Update - They quickly adapted their business model in the wake of the pandemic, switching from primarily in-house drafts to multiple To-Go options, and have implemented on-line ordering and contact-less pick-up by super friendly and appreciative staff. Their beers are fantastic (though Moros experienced secondary fermentation or over-priming). Also, they are the first brewer that I know of that has implemented beer shipping! Not just limited delivery, but shipping. All I can say is - it's about time this is allowed!

This place is a blast, with a very cool vibe, amazing art work all around, and a cool/creepy atmosphere that aligns with their theme - Greek mythology. If they ever open a second location, it would need to be in Salem, MA - this place would fit right in. The beers are excellent, and you can get a 6-beer flight for $15, or taste "the rainbow" (everything on tap) with a party of 2 or more for $30. They have cornhole, a huge shuffleboard table, and tons of games for the whole family to enjoy. My only comment - it's time to expand! I visited on a can release day, so I was lucky, but the cans only lasted that day. They do offer Crowlers to go (32-oz), but there is currently a limit of 2 per person. The staff are super friendly and helpful, and very proud of the product they offer (with good reason). I will definitely make the drive out to Fitchburg again for future offerings!

Great quality. Really surprisingly slow for such a cool place and vibe. Outside games inside cool torch lights, great service. Limited snacks but hot pretzels were awesome. Beers were all winners, price great for quality.

Visited the brewpub last night! Awesome space. Very big. Gives off more of a "meeting spot vibe" as opposed to a "commercial brewpub". Dog and kid friendly. (In fact, there was a dog club meeting while we were there, so tons of 4-legged friends). Huge bar with about 12 available beers, more than half are IPAs. Recommend getting a flight ($15 for six approx. 5oz samples). Instead of growlers, they pour 32oz cans and have a machine to seal it right there behind the bar. So cool! They only serve snacks (chips and homemade pretzels), but they have rotating food trucks come to visit. Had a good crabcake sandwich from the "Cod Squad" food truck. They are BYOF (Bring Your Own Food) which is great. There was a long shuffleboard table and even an indoor area for cornhole. Met the owners and they are super nice and very welcoming. Looking forward to return visits to sample more of their offerings!
