Connecticut Day in the Hop Yard

Join us as we celebrate everything that makes Connecticut worth raising a glass to.

We’re bringing together great beer, local pride, live music, incredible food, and the winning wit of our Crack One, Connecticut campaign for one unforgettable day in the Hop Yard.

After hundreds and hundreds of submissions celebrating the people, places, and quirks that make Connecticut home, it’s time to honor our campaign winners—and celebrate the state that inspired them.

Enjoy $3 draft pours of our event-exclusive Connecticut Lager, available only during Connecticut Day in the Hop Yard—a crisp, easy-drinking celebration of local pride made for a perfect summer toast. Pair your pint with fresh lobster rolls from the Two Roads Food Hall + Bar!
