    Conductivity IPA and Projectile Motion black lager.
    Sara W.

    Of all of the breweries in the immediate area, this one has the best beer by far. I've literally never had a bad beer from Problem Solved. The space has a bar area and some tables, a game room, and an outside area. They've got darts, giant Jenga, Cornhole, and a nice assortment of other games, plus a few TVs. Drink selection is always eclectic, which I appreciate - it's not just a ton of the same New England IPAs. They also have local wine and hard cider for those not interested in beer, as well as their own hard seltzer. Highly recommend checking it out. The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable, plus a few of the restaurants in the immediate vicinity deliver (Italian/pizza, Asian).

    "I know a girl that should never be alone I know a girl who you've got to keep an eye on She's a danger to herself And I'm worried about her health She's got a problem and she's gonna do something dumb" (She's Got A Problem -Fountains of Wayne) If you, or anyone you know has a problem, a visit to Problem Solved might be in order. Because after our visit there yesterday, I can't imagine how sitting on one of their barstools, chatting with their immensely engaging bartenders, and sipping their delicious Honey Wheat Beer will not improve anyone's disposition. Problem Solved! They took over the old space occupied by Broad Brook Brewery and have only been around for two months or so. The interior is much brighter and cheerier than it used to be. They have lots of mechanical drawing and technical writing style artwork on the walls, so if you want to know about Dry Grain Infusion Calculations, or how to calculate International Bittering Units, or how a toilet works, you'll find help at Problem Solved. Their bartenders were great! So personable, so friendly, the five of us chatted with them and they seemed genuinely interested in where we were from and how we liked the place and the beers. Which leads me to their beers. They had five on draft and offered flights, samples, full pours, crowlers and growlers. The five beers were: 1) The Origin - Sweet Wheat Stout 2) Real vs. Imaginary - Coffee Brown 3) Degrees of Seven - West Coast IPA 4) Translucent Viscosity - Honey Wheat 5) Cubic Spheres - Melon IPA 6) They also had a guest draft on tap - Crazy Cock Cider from Stafford Cidery I sampled four of their five beers - I really liked two of them - the Honey Wheat (my favorite) and their Coffee Brown Stout (pretty good). I liked the Sweet Wheat Stout and Melon IPA to a lesser degree. For whatever reason, the Town of East Windsor will not allow food trucks on site, but Problem Solved because nearby Jimmy Chen's and Sophie's will deliver Lo Mein or a slice with pepperoni to your table. If you just want munchies, Problem Solved sells dollar bags of chips or popcorn. The fun atmosphere (oh, by the way, I have to report there were lots of young ladies there), the friendly staff, and the beers made for an enjoyable after work outing.

    Sad to have seen Broad Brook Brewery go but I understand that they are off to new ventures; brewing elsewhere. But in their place is Problem Solved, a more sleek brewery with handmade tables out of pallet wood and blueprints detailing the processing brewing beer from hops to the end product. The layout of the Brewery is open and inviting not as clustered as the previous establishment. The owners seem passionate about their beers starting in homebrewing and classes to refine their craft before coming together to open this brewery. The beers were flavorful with some of the beers being misleading in description and color but still flavorful. My eyes were playing tricks on me as my tastebuds experienced something different than what I saw and read. I was pleasantly surprised. I heard different events planned for the space such as a yoga and beer class. Walked out with two growlers filled with beer for my get together and glad I stopped in to check this place out. A nice addition to East Windsor, breathing new life into the area.

    Cool scene, good amount of tables and space. IPA beers are pretty good. I usually go for the sours but I have to say the fruited sour beers that I had from the counterbore line were really gross!! Zero fruity and something wrong with them. I've had zillions in my day but they tasted like vinegar. There was also zero sign of any lactose in the mango limeade fruited sour with lactose, ew it tasted like a margarita with salad dressing in it. I have a bad taste in my mouth! The mixed berry sour was no good either. But since the place is a cool hang out spot I'd come back and try more. Friendly beertenders too! Warning no outside food and no food to buy inside except for chips, so don't come hungry!!

    I came here on a Friday night with a decent size group to try out their beers and hang out. There is no food on-site and no food trucks, however you can bring in your own food and there is a pizza place right nearby. They had about eight beers available to try out and you could also do flights to try them out. A 16 ounce glass ran about $6. The beers were alright, there was a decent variety with not every beer being an IPA which was nice. All were pretty low in alcohol as well with nothing over 7.6%. The inside was nice, a little small and the place was definitely busy. it's in the back of a plaza with a good-sized parking lot so not very visible from the street.

    New brewery in the former B3 location. Taproom is fine, new tables. Not a fan of the stools, but that's a personal preference. Only had one beer- there were 6 to choose from. If I wasn't headed out for the evening, I would have tried more. The Coarse Threads looked very interesting. Next time! I enjoyed a pint of the Root, a refreshing cream ale. The taproom was full on a Friday evening, some patrons part of the Mug Club. I wish this new brewery well and will return in the future when I have more time to enjoy a few more of their beers.

    Great little brewery in the former Broad Brook Brewery location- Sofia's will deliver food or you can bring your own. Few games available- probably seats about 100 people - cool mathematics theme decor due to one of the owners being a math teacher

    Awesome brewery, they have cider and wine too!
    Olivia R.

    I really enjoy the featured cider since I am gluten free. My husband has the mug club here. They have trivia here Thursday nights at 7pm, you have to sign up. It does get noisy those nights and very busy and packed. They run a great business here. I love how close it is. They have a 1 year celebration next Saturday! The owner is extremely nice, so is the rest of the staff. Some nights can be very busy even when it's not Trivia. They're only open Thursday-Sunday. If you're hungry they have chips you can purchase, and if you want to play a game they have a bunch of games! They also have a lot of awesome merch for sale! So bring some extra money and support them!!

    Had a great time with at Problem Solved! They have a really friendly staff, owners and patrons. The nearby pizzeria, Sofia's , will deliver and it looks like they are expanding to create a "game room" next door. I like how the main room doesn't have tv's and instead there are board games and great conversation. Some children there too so there is also a family friendly atmosphere. The sweet-wheat stout and kettle sour with mixed berries were my favorite. Be sure to take a couple Crowlers for the road or bring your own Growler for a refill.

    Delicious beer!! A terrific, bright, very clean brewery!! No stale beer smell to offend the very tasty brews created with interesting flavors. I enjoyed the Spiced Stout while my husband had a flight. You might think you need the distraction of a tv, but this establishment begs to be enjoyed with great tunes and conversation. Allen welcomed us, but his brews kept us relaxed & happy!! They even have a cool chalk board in the loo to encourage beer suggestions. I highly recommend this establishment.

    I was surprised a few years ago when I heard a brewery was opening up near my house. When I checked…read moreout the website it said they specialized in Italian style beers. I've never really tried Italian style but enjoyed IPAs, stouts, pilsners etc. I made it a point to stop in and try the beers. Now this was a few years ago. When I had first stopped in their opening week I tried the beers and thought they were ok at best. However, I know that first openings cannot be a final judgement for breweries as things are getting dialed in and most places are using new setups to make the beer. So I waited about a month and went back and was blown out of the water by the difference in what I initially tried versus what they were making now, the beer was phenomenal and I have been going back since, stopping in when I can. The brewery itself, while on the smaller size is very cozy, clean and nicely decorated. They offer various areas including high tops, standard tables and couch areas ( as well as outdoor seating during warmer months) Every-time I have stopped in they have had a food truck offering available as well as a Chinese restaurant right next door. They also have snacks inside so they have a few options for food. All in all, it's a great place, awesome vibe and some really good brews. Definitely worth a stop in. (Also, they offer beers for veterans. I always make it a point to buy a veteran a beer when I stop in, and yes you can prepay for one)

The beer was very good and the service was courteous. The only negative on the night was that they didn't have any merch for sale - no glasses or hats or tees - which is very odd. Not sure if that was temporary or they just don't bother. Anyway, if you go there, you should have a nice time.

    Almost Famous Brewing Company is a craft brewery that opened in East Granby, Connecticut in…read moreFebruary 2022. It was founded by business partners Chip Glanovsky and head brewer Jim Wilfinger. Friends since high school, the two partners began brewing their own beer using fresh fruit and natural ingredients. Eventually, they had a dream of opening their own brewery. In 2018, they registered their brand as "Blind Faith Brewing Company, LLC". On paper, they are still known under that name. However, sometime before their brick and mortar brewery opened in 2022, they discovered that Vermont-based Magic Hat Brewing Company had already copyrighted the name "Blind Faith" for an English IPA of theirs. Needing a new name quick, Chip and Jim settled on "Almost Famous" in reference to the 2000 film directed by Cameron Crowe. The name is also meant to honor all people who almost got famous but didn't in the end. I recently visited Almost Famous for the first time. I immediately loved the space. It's very spacious with a large taproom, plenty of seating, a private event room, a billiards room, and a classic arcade room. I also loved the Rock 'n' Roll theme that was going on. The bar was built to resemble Marshall amplifiers, truss towers, and the tap handles were all different guitars. I started off with a sampler flight that featured "Anything's Impossible" (American Pilsner), "Tangent" (Tangerine Fruited Sour), "Stranger Than Fiction" (Cream Stout), "Everybody Wants Some!" (Pineapple Vanilla Bean Milkshake IPA) and "Bitch 'B' trippin" (Double New England IPA). The latter two were my favorites. Afterwards, I enjoyed a full pour of "Bubblegumption" (Bubblegum Milkshake IPA). Overall, I had a great experience at Almost Famous. I would love to return with my family in the future; my sons will love the arcade!
