Just as the title states. Preferably any place that has porters or stouts. I’m honestly IPA’d out at this point as each brewery has about 75% of their options as that.

Be it in the New Haven or surrounding area.

They have also been doing barrel aged beer releases every morning at 10 am until Christmas on their website

Anything except the 2 Roads Holiday Ale. Has to be one of the worst beers I’ve ever had.

The popularity of two roads really baffles me given the options in the area

I love Two Juicy. Besides that I feel like their options are extremely mid.

just want to shout out berlinetta in downtown bridgeport -- it's my favorite brewery in the state and really convenient off of metro north.

they focus on european/czech beers and have a few darker, seasonally appropriate options, including a stout, a vienna, and a "dark czech lager" that is might be my new all-time favorite cold weather beer.

If you don’t like IPA’s, East Rock is great.

Love Berlinetta, excellent lagers and pilsners. Not favorite in state though. Have you ever been to Fox Farm? They’re incredible.
