Has the feel of a local tavern you wish went to every day in 1500 to get affordable delicious beer. For the sour fans!

If you love sour beer, this is the place for you! Lots of fun options and you can do a flight to sample. Cans to take home if you find a favorite. The first visit we had our dog and they brought her a bowl of water, so nice. Love the atmosphere with the pop art display of products and the nice windows to watch street traffic.

SOUR BEERS ONLY!!I felt a little strange starting with that, but most of the negative reviews are from people who went to a sour beer brewery and don't like sours. . . .I absolutely loved this place. Favorite brewery by far. Tons of different sour options. Lots of beer to go. Super friendly staff. No food here, but they were cool with me bringing my own food.Thanks all! Can't wait to come back.

Unique beers and helpful staff. A wide range of ABV and high quality. Not a gimmick; this was a great stop.

Great venue, chill vibe, friendly staff. You must be willing to try and enjoy sour beer - this is what they do. I was introduced to Hermit Thrush with by an off-license store in Connecticut, and I haven't been disappointed. A little on the pricey side, but the variety of sour is top notch. I routinely make trips to Brattleboro just for Hermit Thursh.

We had a wonderful experience at Hermit Thrush. They welcomed our puppy and were happy to answer questions and give suggestions. Customer service was excellent. They also have gluten free cider which was very good. My husband loved the beers he tried. We will be back next time we are in the area!

Love the cozy vibe of this place. Sours aren’t my favorite but the sampler was perfect. Just wish they labeled what beer was what.

I've had their beers before, and somehow pictured they'd be located on a farm, not in downtown Brattleboro. But, here they are, in a small space with ample metered parking all around.Hermit Thrush only brews (excellent) sours, but they do have a few quality guest taps for anyone in your group who insists on a lager or an IPA.Overwhelmed by the long list of beers? Start with a flight of four 5 oz pours, selected by the bartender, who will pick a variety based on your past experience with sours.Everything I had was wonderful. The bartender gave us glasses of sparkling water and was ok with us sitting down with sandwiches we brought in from outside. A great experience! Wander around the nearby shops before or after your visit.

Hands down they have the best sours! They have all sours, so if you are a lover of sour beer, this is your place. The beer slushy was awesome. Definitely will be back and highly recommend a stop there if you are in the area.

An absolute MUST TRY for sour beer fans and connoisseurs. The slushie was a *revelation* and every beer I sampled (and had full pours or cans of) was exceptional. One of my favorite breweries in America and among the very best in the Northeast/New England. Simply outstanding.

Outstanding sours! Host went above & beyond to make sure our visit was excellent! Can't say enough good about this place! Put it on your "must visit" list if you like sours!!! Bummed I didn't grab a Hermit Thrush disc golf disc when I was there!

Hermit Thrush has some of the best sours I've tried across the country, which is great since that's all they do! We brought food in from nearby and tried out a variety of different beers. Everything we tried was so good that we bought several canned options to take home. The bartender was also a highlight, making us feel welcome and providing awesome recommendations. I would recommend specifically visiting this area to try Hermit Thrush.

Their niche is only sours which limits it a bit but was a very cool place to hangout for one beer.
