I was at @pillowandoatsbrewing in Beacon last weekend for their 2nd “beerthday.” I really do enjoy this place, the vibe and setting is on point! #beer #microbrews #instabeer #ale #stout #ipa #porter #saison #localbrewery #breweries #beaconny #supportlocal (Crosspost via IFTTT .)

Took a pit stop at Crooked Mouth Brewing on the way back from Cuba! Easy to get to, the brews were plentiful and the food menu looked very reasonably priced! I liked the eastern-influenced Cousin Kevin IPA (the woodsy notes were strong) and the Drizzle stout did highlight a dessert-like strength with sweet maple undertones. I only regret not making it for happy hour, but enjoyed the time nonetheless – definitely a jewel to stop by if you’re on the Southern Tier Expressway! #beer #microbrews #instabeer #ale #stout #ipa #porter #saison #localbrewery #breweries #endicott (Crosspost via IFTTT .)

Coming back from a roadtrip waaayyyyy out in western NY, I hit up @roscoebeercompany for a tipple and snack. Great vibes from Trout Town USA as it is, I liked the flavors on tap at the establishment. Not pictured is the dessert-smooth root beer! The Two-Headed Stout was light and robust in flavor, I should’ve taken a growler! (What’s the fishing-themed variation of “growler,” anyway?) #beer #microbrews #instabeer #ale #stout #ipa #porter #saison #localbrewery #breweries #thinknydrinkny (Crosspost via IFTTT .)

On my way back from Mexico (NY) I stopped by @oncofermentations in Tully, NY. Guided by @nyscraftbeer , I’m grateful to have found this chill spot off the highway. The Intuitive (6th Anniversary) was full bodied and had delicious bergamot bitterness, and the Aesthesis (Blueberry Cranberry Vanilla) was a deceptively drinkable fruity sour. Spot how the flights are served in muffin tins! Bonus points for the pizza menu and vegetarian options for bites! #beer #microbrews #instabeer #ale #stout #ipa #porter #saison #localbrewery #breweries #onco #tully #syracuse #sour #thinknydrinkny #roadtrips (Crosspost via IFTTT .)

When in Tokyo I visited Hitachino Nest above Tokyo Station. I really dig this city view. The red rice ale and espresso stout were both crisp, the latter had nice coffee notes akin to every other sip o’ the black gold that I had all weekend… it hits different than what we got here in the USA, folks! #beer #microbrews #instabeer #ale #stout #ipa #porter #saison #localbrewery #breweries #japan #tokyo #owl #tokyostation #hitachino #hitachinonestbeer (Crosspost via IFTTT .)

Finally made it to @thecatskillbrewery! The iconic angry raccoon has made its appearance several times on my trips for #project13by62 . Of note is Ratface Macdougall, an orange-forward hazy DIPA with big body and smooth taste, and Devils Path had classic bitterness I could session easily. Huge kudos to the staff. A few days prior a wonder storm downed lines, and I overheard stories of gratitude for locals using the facilities to power phones - and trade stories of how spontaneous BBQ’s would be required to make use of meat in broken fridges. Great to see how a brewery can have a significant mark on a community – it’s never just about the brew, but the crew you meet along the way. #beer #microbrews #instabeer #ale #stout #ipa #porter #saison #localbrewery #breweries #catskills #dipa (Crosspost via IFTTT .)
