Fiddlehead Brewing Company, Shelburne

A great place for beer, pizza, conversation and to meet people -- all at a value price. Have always been a huge fan of their flagship beer -- Fiddlehead IPA -- and Second Fiddle is great as well. Go stop in to the brewery and drink it fresh, as it's meant to be enjoyed. Would also recommend eating some of their pizza, as they have some great selections, so there's something for everyone. What really drives everything home for me is the staff -- beertenders who are friendly, knowledgeable and really enjoy interacting with anyone who comes in. There are plenty of great breweries in VT, but Fiddlehead is a top 3 for me, so make sure to come visit!

My friend and I stopped at 4 other breweries in this area after visiting the GIANT FILING CABINET; all were great but I think Fiddlehead was one of my top favorites. From the selection of merch to the beers, I think someone could find at least one thing they like here. My friend bought a coconut candle and I bought 2 hats. I had the regular Fiddlehead and he had the Second Fiddle. The only thing that's different about this brewery is that there's also a dining area near the bar, so little kids can be in there which is a little weird if it's a brewery. We were there at about 7:30 pm and there were two little kids running around (not the breweries fault) but just a different type of environment. That is the only reason for me giving it 4 instead of 5 stars. Other than that, everything exceeded expectations!
