NO persons under 21 are allowed anywhere on the premises inside or outside. This includes infants, toddlers, kids, tweens, teenagers and 20 year olds. More details on reason why can be found here. (https://www.housatonicriverbrewing.com/why-21-and-over)

NO dogs are permitted anywhere on the premises. Although we have no doubt that your dog is very well behaved, not all are. On our first day open two dogs ended up in the beer garden and almost immediately one dog went after the other and a fight broke out. Several customers got up and left and the owner of the dog that was the non-aggressor directed their anger over the situation at us. The bottom line is that we likely lost a couple of customers on our first day which was a less than stellar way to start, hence the rationale behind our decision. We hope you understand our position and come visit us soon.
