About Urban Lodge Brewing Co.

Urban Lodge Brewing Co. is a brewery and taproom in historic downtown Manchester, Connecticut. Its website says the space was a nightclub that sat dormant for 16 years before the owners walked in. They opened a small 5 barrel brewhouse there in 2019.

The website says the aim was to make beers that please all palates, not just IPA drinkers. The Manchester menu has listed sours, light lagers, a pilsner, pale ales, IPAs, an Irish ale and a stout. It calls Stowe Away its flagship New England IPA.

The Manchester menu also has a kitchen menu with apps and snacks, such as a brioche pretzel, wings and beer nachos. Cocktails, wine, cider and non-alcoholic drinks are listed too. The Open Trail beer sends a portion of proceeds to local conservation efforts, according to the menu.

Its website says family is at the core of Urban Lodge, with roots that run deep through Manchester. Google lists a wheelchair accessible entrance and parking lot.
