Honey, you’re home! Come see what the buzz is about and make sure you come as you are! Whether you’re in a suit or your favorite jammies, when you’re here you’re a part of the fam bam. From our tanks to your paws, experience that sip, sip, hooray knowing we handcraft each batch for you. Much like our busy worker bee employees, our taproom has a thrivin’ vibe. So don’t be shy, pull up a chair at the 10 ton bar made from reclaimed bridge I-beams, under our handcrafted honeycomb lighting.

FAQs


We have a variety of light snackies available at the bar! Hot kielbasa dogs served on a bun with mustard kraut and a variety of Drunk Alpaca Snacks [beer glazed treats such as kettle chips, malted pretzel crunch and nuts].

At this time we do not allow off-site food to be brought in, we ask that you please support our local food trucks that visit daily. In the rare event that a food truck cancels and we’re unable to find a replacement, you may bring some munchies in with you but please give us a call during our open taproom hours to check.

Our private event space functions differently, if rented you may bring in your own food/catering.


Our main taproom is first come, first served, we’re not able to take reservations. Alternatively, we just installed a brand new buzzin’ private room, B-Side! For information on renting this buzzin’ new room, please fill out our private event request form here.


Please keep an eye on our social media, we’re very active on the Facebooks and the gram, we’ll always post on those platforms as to what’s goin’ down. Additionally, please visit our online store, store.alvariumbeer.com for our current selection.


WOOF! We’re dog friendly! However, since the taproom is a shared space we ask that you please follow the pup rules: well behaved, leashed at all times and no barking in the taproom. If you pup is feelin’ chatty we ask that you please hang outdoors.


We’re family friendly however all kiddos under the age of 21 must be supervised at all times. Safety is our number one priority and our environment is industrial so we want everyone to have fun but stay safe.


Money is money, honey! We take cash, credit or debit.


We’re a busy hive and rapidly spreading our wings. Please see our jobs page for more details.


No. Please do not open bottles/cans in our taproom, our staff will have to impound them. 🙁


Currently New Britain doesn’t have a mask mandate but please feel free to mask up if you feel more comfy.


Check out our current taproom hours here.


Alvarium doesn’t currently host live music, bands or DJs.
