Weiss Ferments is arguably the best brewery experience in the Catskills. I'm not here to pit their beers against Suarez or West Kill, but if you're seeking the secret garden of biergartens, an idyllic, off-the-beaten-path spot with a lush snack menu served alongside beers that capture the wild-herb freshness of the mountain air and pour it into a glass, then Weiss Ferments ought to be on your radar.
Serving Catskills-brewed craft beer, wine, cocktails, and a full food menu, Cairo's Old Factory Brewing Company has what you need, whether you’re looking to bring all your friends to a ginormous sports bar or just want to sip a local beer on their breezy 95-foot porch. Plus, they've got a kids menu and brunch deal for early birds.
Hayley Shine, a head brewer with a bioengineering degree and a focus on well-balanced beers and cider-making, shares her expertise at Roe Jan Brewing Co. in Hillsdale, NY.
At this great-for-groups, family-friendly Athens, NY brewpub, the bar snacks are as serious and satisfying as the beers.
At Hop Barn Brewing, Tom Vance is likely to strike up a conversation as you sip a beer in his tiny taproom, built off the side of his home. His daughter may pour your pint, you get introduced to his neighbor's cow, and there's a slim chance you could end up booking an aromatherapy massage with his wife, Irene, before the night is through.
