Description
The Brewer Brook Impoundment is a 42-acre impoundment of Brewer Brook located off of Pleasant Street in Berlin. The impoundment and surrounding land is used for flood control and as a result the water level in the impoundment can vary depending on precipitation. Hiking trails encircle the impoundment although it is unclear if there are any waters other than directly in front of the dam with any depth. The edges of the water can become thick with vegetation as the season progresses.
Recreational access
The Department of Conservation and Recreation manages a 12 car gravel parking lot and trail head off of Pleasant St. in Berlin (get directions). It is about a five minute walk in to the water by the dam were one can shore fish. Please contact the Department of Conservation and Recreation for additional information and/or restrictions pertaining to public access of The Brewer Brook Impoundment.

Fishing
Much of this impoundment may be very shallow during stretches of the year and as a result fishing opportunities here are unknown. If you are going for a hike, bring along a fishing pole, if pressure is low fish should be eager to bite.
