New England Brewing Co., a Connecticut-based craft brewery since 2001, was interested in expanding beyond their popular Woodbridge location. After investigating several properties in the region, the owners responded to an RFP from the City of West Haven and were selected for the Savin Rock site. The location is along an elevated section of the boardwalk near Bradley Point.

The building currently on the site, formerly the Savin Rock Conference Center, has fallen into disrepair. It will be renovated to become a spacious new taproom. A proposed deck will overlook Long Island Sound.
