About This Business
7 Balls Brewing is a craft brewery and taproom located in the heart of Bellows Falls, Vermont. Founded by a group of four friends who grew up in the surrounding area, the company's name is a testament to their camaraderie and a personal experience that has driven their mission. The '7 Balls' moniker originated from a clever observation made by one of the founders' wives, referencing the fact that one of the original four friends had testicular cancer and was missing a certain body part. This poignant story has led the company to embrace the name and dedicate a portion of their efforts to the fight against cancer. With a strong sense of community and a passion for brewing, 7 Balls Brewing has been inspired by the outpouring of local support for their delicious, locally crafted beverages. The founders, all 'middle-aged' with full-time jobs, have embarked on this venture as a way to give back to their hometown and create a vibrant gathering place for friends and family. Their journey began over 8 years ago, with the friends homebrewing together in individual kitchens before moving to a more industrial space to continue their 'hoppy & malty experiments.' As they open their taproom and brewery, 7 Balls Brewing is committed to serving great beer, fostering a sense of community, and making a positive impact on the lives of those around them. With their unique name and compelling story, 7 Balls Brewing is poised to become a beloved fixture in Bellows Falls, offering a welcoming space for locals and visitors alike to enjoy fantastic beer and support a worthy cause.

June 06, 2025Overhyped and Underwhelming Experience at 7 Balls
I stopped by 7 Balls Brewing with high expectations, given the buzz around town. Unfortunately, my experience was a letdown. The beer, while decent, didn't live up to the hype. I tried their flagship IPA, which lacked the complexity I've come to expect from craft breweries. The taproom itself felt like an afterthought, with a sparse, industrial decor that didn't exactly scream 'welcoming.' What struck me as odd was the founders' story, which, while touching, felt like a marketing gimmick rather than a genuine driving force behind the brewery. The '7 Balls' moniker, rather than being a clever homage, came across as trying too hard to be quirky. The community aspect, which they tout as a core part of their mission, felt forced, with patrons seemingly there more out of obligation to support local business than genuine enthusiasm. For a place that's been in the making for over 8 years, I expected more refinement in both their product and ambiance. Perhaps with time, they'll find their footing, but for now, 7 Balls Brewing feels like a promising concept that hasn't quite reached its potential.
