The Tap List

Beer that speaks for itself

IPA 7.2% ABV

District Haze

A juicy, sessionable New England IPA with notes of citrus peel and tropical fruit. Hazy gold, easy drinking, impossible to stop at one.

Pale Ale 5.6% ABV

Relic Pale

Our signature pale ale — balanced between piney bitterness and a soft, cracker-malt finish. The beer that started it all.

Stout 6.8% ABV

Farmington Dark

A robust oatmeal stout with roasted coffee and dark chocolate undertones. Velvet on the palate, warm finish.

Lager 4.8% ABV

District Pils

A crisp, clean Czech-style pilsner. Light gold, fine carbonation, with a dry herbal hop bite that makes every sip refreshing.

Sour 5.4% ABV

Wild District

A wild-fermented blonde ale aged in oak with local tart cherries. Bright acidity, stone fruit, and a subtle funk that keeps you coming back.

Seasonal 6.0% ABV

Harvest Amber

An amber ale brewed with autumn harvest grains. Toasted malt, a whisper of caramel, and a hint of spice — taste the season in every glass.

Our tap list rotates with the seasons. Visit us or call ahead for what's pouring today.

Our Story

Built on patience, poured with purpose

Relic Brewing started with a simple question: what would beer taste like if we just focused on making it well? No trends, no gimmicks — just careful ingredient selection, clean brewing technique, and the time it takes to get it right.

We opened our doors in Farmington in 2021, converting an old brick building on District Road into a taproom that feels like a living room — comfortable, unpretentious, and always welcoming. Every batch we brew is small enough to care about and large enough to share.

Our brewing team sources hops from Pacific Northwest farms and malt from regional mills. We age some of our sour programs on oak barrels that once held whiskey, because patience pays off in the glass.
