Having grown up in Turners Falls, I had to stop by this brewery when I was in town for my brothers wedding over Labor Day weekend. Ben was super chill and told us about all the beers we were sampling, everyone of which was amazeballs! We chatted over a few pints before taking some bottles(and a glass) back to Sacramento! Definitely worth visiting!

A great small place on the«Main Street» in Miller’s Falls! Free tastings and 1⁄3 of the openers walked us through everything we were trying. I was super surprised by how amazing the beers were; we left with 5 bottles. Definitely worth checking out.

Great little gem in a sleepy little town. Very creative. They take their craft seriously. Ben, one of the owners, is a true gentleman and an artist. They are down to earth, friendly and love to show off what they do. They have actually developed their own strain of yeast that is used in each of their beers. No, they don’t all taste the same, that is a tribute to their excellent craftsmanship. If you are in the area or even if you have to drive a out of the way, you won’t be disappointed.

As my vehicle cruzed past Element Brewery, located in the hills of Northern Massachusetts, I didn’t initially realize it was a brewery. At first glance the greenish, orange building appeared to me to be a store that sold brew kits for smaller batch brewers. Once inside, I was asked if I’d like to take the tour of the facility, followed by a tasting. Free high gravity beer? Heck Ya! The tour covered every step in the process for the current line up of suds being offered. The group totalled five and my buddy and I accounted for 100% of the questions, that Dan kindly obliged in answering. Red Giant, Plasma, Seasonal, the beers kept coming in 6oz glasses filled to about 3oz, but really complex. I was feeling a bit pedestrian in my fall beer selections, so what better place to make up for it than in a brewery? I dropped roughly an eighty spot and have nothing to show for it now but a bunch of empty bottles and some wonderful memories of which I am very full of. Look these guys up if your a lover of craft beer. From the first employee I met to the partner I shared some laughs with, I left feeling like I was momentarily plucked from a Norman Rockwell goes dog buying and beer tasting painting.

On an annual trip to the big candle factory this year I thought I would make a point to check out this brewery. Boy am I glad we did. The beer is awesome and the place is in an old post office building in a very small town. Josh is definitely an asset of the brewery and just plain friendly. Josh is the resident«Brewbix cube» expert. I’m sure he would be happy to show you his skills. We bought a special grab bag(best deal) and got 2 year old bolltes of the Dark element and one of the altober fest. Can’t wait to try them out. Keep up the good work and thanks for the hospitality.

Don’t let the weird storefront of Element, which looks like an old general store or maybe a current one, fool you. There are tasty beers waiting inside for you to sample. Element’s tap room is. strange. It’s small and it looks like everything else surrounding this place has been condemned. However, the sleepy town is harboring a beer secret. We were floored by their gluten free Plasma. We do not drink gluten free beers and upon accidentally ending up with one: usually say Blech. However, I would drink Plasma on the regular, it was really good. Brewed with millet, Aramis, buckwheat and brown rice. Mmm. It was super smooth and refreshing, with a high ABV. Most of the beers here had a high ABV — which was surprising because only a few tasted that way. Altoberfest was just coming out and very good, an awesome fall seasonal. Different than the standard you find at every other brewery for the fall season. It was the first Altbier I have seen anywhere locally brewed. We were really impressed with the uniqueness and the flavor of their beer. It was not the standard lineup of ales that you find most places. The tap room staff was really nice and made conversation with us. We will drop by again for sure, especially to get special bottles that don’t make it all the way to Cambridge.

Not only are their beers delicious, but we really enjoyed spending some time at the brewery. This place is tiny, which is neat to see because their beers are well recognized. The person who was working gave us a tour, spent some time talking to us about the beers and the history and some of their upcoming events, poured us some delicious beer, and then solved a rubix cube behind his back in under a minute. Mind.Blown.

Okay so the beers are really good. There were only two that I FELL in love with though and those were the Dark Element and the Extra Special Oak. Everything else was good but I wouldn’t really make a big deal about them. The prices are sort of ridiculous, I mean they do have super fancy packaging and the décor of the place is incredible! It’s so interesting, but I couldn’t afford really anything. There was a awesome deal with for 18 bucks that was a «surprise package» and you get two beers but you don’t know which ones. I opted for that and got two magical beers. Otherwise the beers are about 14 dollars each, or even more if you are getting a crazy aged one. They are corked so you can age them and they will last and taste fresh longer. The guy who was working there was incredible, he knew all about beer and mentioned where I can get it locally on TAP since I’m not from MA which is nice. I love it when the people pouring beer clearly LOVE what they are doing.
