Simple Roots Brewing (Craft Beer & Brewery in Burlington VT)

Simple Roots Brewing in Burlington, Vermont isn’t just a place to wet your whistle – it’s a lively laboratory of craft and community. Their taproom (the sort of place that makes you forget the world outside) boasts a garage‑door façade that swings open onto patio seating, inviting you to stare at the skyline while a cold Simple Pils or a hop‑laden Good Neighbor IPA works its magic. The beer list is unapologetically straightforward, yet daring enough to sprinkle in raspberries and quirky hop varieties for those experimental batches that keep regulars guessing.

Beyond the brews, the brewery doubles as a social hub, rolling out events like Pies & Pints Night, DIY terrarium workshops, and thoughtfully curated beer‑pairing sessions that prove you don’t need a PhD to enjoy a good mash. A modest food menu, highlighted by a melt‑in‑your‑mouth grilled cheese, means you won’t go thirsty or hungry. Their no‑frills, sustainability‑focused ethos lets the quality of the beer shine, while the warm, unpretentious atmosphere makes it a favourite stop for locals and visitors alike.
