Two Roads Brewing Company opened in 2012 in a renovated 100-year-old brick factory in Stratford, Connecticut. Inspired by the Robert Frost Poem “The Road Not Taken,” Two Roads creates beers using the highest quality ingredients and equipment.
In a process unique to Two Roads, they mixed a locally-roasted Ethiopian/Sumatra blend of beans with a rich oatmeal stout under pressure (like espresso but without the steam) using their German-built “Brewnik” device. The mixture is steeped for several days resulting in a true, cold-brewed coffee stout. Hop on the Two Roads Espressway!
