Erin gave us a thorough and knowledgeable tour in the gorgeous treehouse, with delicious tastings and stories about the development process of cider production. Cameron in the retail shop was also knowledgeable and helpful so we could find just what we were looking for. Harrison was cheerful and friendly and made us feel right at home. The bar staff was friendly and very prompt with service, and even with the wildfires, the locale was scenic and enjoyable. 10 out of 10 experience and would recommend for groups and families!

    I've been coming to Angry Orchard since they first opened to the public, back when tastings were…read moreactually free! It's been incredible to watch how much they've grown and expanded over the years. As someone who lives nearby, it's nice to see a local place become such a popular destination. Today, they offer seasonal events, live music, lawn games, expanded tasting spaces, food trucks, and even the Tree House experience, which I've done a couple of times and really enjoyed. The ciders are consistently delicious, and the food trucks always offer great options. My favorite time to visit is definitely the fall. Sitting by the fire pits with a fresh cider and warm cider doughnuts is hard to beat. That said, weekends can get extremely busy, so I usually recommend visiting during the week if you want a more relaxed experience. The only downside, in my opinion, is that it's become very crowded. When the tour buses arrive, the atmosphere can start to feel more like a tourist attraction than the laid-back orchard it once was. I think limiting attendance a bit during peak times would create a more enjoyable experience for everyone. I'm also not a big fan of having to rent the sidelines, as it adds to that commercialized feel instead of the relaxed winery atmosphere that many people are looking for. Overall, it's still one of my favorite places to gather with friends and family. The beautiful setting, excellent ciders, seasonal activities, and welcoming atmosphere keep us coming back year after year.

The parking lot is small but luckily it wasn't crowded on a Sunday afternoon. The food was excellent. They have a wood fired grill menu only on the weekends. We ordered the Brussels sprouts, the smoked wings with Thai chili sauce, the pulled pork sandwich, the hangar steak, and the burger. All were great as were the fries. The service was above and beyond. Also, they had some great specials on cams to go that we took advantage of. 10% off for dining at the brewery, a free branded glass with every 3 4-packs, and a free bottled stout with the purchase of a case.

It was around that moment, I realized I should have gone to Equilibrium. Two months later, I was again traveling through Middletown and I planned my day around visiting. The space was cool. Lots of wood. Cool large Einstein art as you approach the building. Lots of inside seating with natural light. Outside seating and smokers for BBQ. I ordered two 4 ounce pours as a way of informing my can purchases. Photon, a Pale Ale. And MC Squared, a Double IPA. Both were very good. Reminded me of the ales at some other top breweries. I decided to buy a 4 of MC Squared and I asked the person working if there was anything special that they had in cans. She recommended Mmmosa, which is a pale ale with orange flavor. I tried it and it also was very good. I didn't eat, but I note that Equilibrium really seems focused on BBQ. Something to research before you visit. 4.5 Stars

It may sound cheesy but it describes exactly the atmosphere of this place, a good time full of friendly people. It's a 2 two story building with plenty of seating. I have been here many a time where the upstairs is rented out for a private event. They also have two outside decks full of tables and chairs which is perfect to sit at when the weather is nice. And trust me when the weather is nice this place is packed!!!! The food here is delicious. In the warmer months they have a pizza food truck that comes. The pizza is sooo good my favorite is one they sell that has a white sauce on it instead of marinara it is delicious. The brewery itself makes small bites and has a few sandwiches that come with a bag of potato chips. They are also good. Last time we came our friends got the meatball sub and it was huge!!! They said it was amazing. They have a great selection of beers including IPAs, Stouts, Sours, and Ciders. I will say this brewery is what kindled my love for Sour beers. They have one that tastes like a red Starburst, so yummy! They also have non alcoholic beer and spirits on their menu. The staff is also friendly. I have seen them frazzled a time or two when it's really busy which is understandable. All in all it's good service both bar tenders and other staff that is working hard cleaning up tables ams sweeping to make sure the tables are ready for the next round of people. Also to note this is not table service. You go to the bar and order your food and either pay there or open a tab. They then bring out your food to you. You can also get beers to take home and other merchandise such as shirts, jackets, and some packaged food items. It very family friendly! Every time I come I see tons of families here, which is nice. Oh and the last thing to note the bathrooms are always clean!!! Which is something I really appreciate about any place that is serving food and drinks.

The day we went they had the World Cup game and they were showing it upstairs. They had a great variety of beers and cocktails but no shots were available and barely any food. The food options were way too limited. I ended up getting the meatballs which were good but i was expecting to eat dinner there and we were disappointed. The vibe and atmosphere of the place was beautiful. They had an elevator which was perfect for strollers and wheelchairs. I would recommend this place for drinks only. Make sure you eat before you come!

I love that they grow most of their own hops and other ingredients, and the outdoor space is really nice, with lights strung up above you. The beer is good and consistent. I enjoyed the IPA they had on tap and M enjoyed the rye and the red ale. You order inside their tasting room, where there are a few small tables for indoor seating. They also had tables set up in front of the tasting room that were covered, then they have a large outside area with picnic tables and other seating arrangements. When we went the second time we couldn't light any of the firepits due to a burn warning in effect. The first time we went, it was later in the day and the food truck had run out of food. The second time we went, we had better luck and ordered from a Thai food truck. Food was great and they accepted Venmo, which is always a plus. Check their FB page so you know what kind of food truck they'll have. Overall, we would return when passing through the area. It's a good find!
