Fox Farm (2019)

Never had to wait more than a few minutes at opening. It’s a constantly moving flow of customers.

 

Thank you. Guess I’m taking a ride!

 

Quiet. In my experience, it's a pretty chill vibe just about any time you go

 

Arrived at 2:30 today to see a 5 minute line for cans and a 1-2 minute line for pours. Throughout my 1 hour visit, the can line varied from no wait to a max of seven minutes. The pour lines were never more than a couple of minutes. Yes, a very chill vibe.

 

I’ve only been there once, but it’s funny reading these posts just assuming there’s a line because the beer is very good. Long lines are not and should not be the norm!

 

Don't get to FF much, but try when visiting family in the area. Went yesterday right at open with some relatives and the place filled up quick! But I was never in line more than 5 minutes, draft or cans. Very happy Copestone lasted and will be cracking a bottle on New Year's Eve. Had the Woodline stout and Camp smoked lager. Both quite good. Had a taste of someone's Gather and was very impressed. I'm not usually a pilsner guy but that was excellent. I'd be at FF all the time if I lived closer.

 

I cracked open my Copestone on Christmas night. I thought it was outstanding but I don't really ever drink the style.
How does it stack up against other aged ales people have had?

 

Same here, went yesterday for first time in a year (2nd time overall). It was mobbed at 2:30, lines varied but no more than 8-10 minutes. Loved Alta and Quiet Night half pours. Happy to get cans of those two. Woodline and Pebble were both solid too. Very nice folks that run the place. Also got Copestone and Double Burst to go.

 

Exact same boat for me. My wife and I are lucky enough to escape from the western part of CT to the area each year. This was our 2nd (hopefully) annual trip to Fox Farm. The place ebbs and flows from no line to a line but they push through it in very little time. Highlights for me today were Swale and Woodline with the expectation of Copestone (2nd year in a row it lasted after Christmas for me to grab) and Double Burst to come. Great atmosphere and a friendly crew make for a good time even in early winter.
