Total hidden gem right outside of Howe's Cavern. Father son team brewery. Beers are seriously good. The Lager and Apricot ale were great. Big rustic interior. Wines, cider, and spirits also available here. Not much in the way of food. If you go to the caverns, make a stop and drink local

Friendly staff near Howes Cavern. Nice beer decor. However brews not that impressive. No food on premises but you can order in from local places.

Huge shoutout to Bill, who not only gave us great beer but also gave us a tour of the facility. Great experience all around. Highly recommend the Apricot and the Schoharie beer. Also, very pet-friendly establishment! We had the chance to meet the owner’s beautiful dog, who was one of the sweetest I’ve ever met. I’d definitely come back when in the area.

Family-owned and operated brewery occupying what looks like a former firehouse. A nice selection of brews ranging from blondes to stouts of higher proof. Only snacks available, but on hand is a menu to a local restaurant which delivers to the brewery. Clean facility, with al fresco section next to the unpaved parking lot. Very friendly staff. Various merchandise on sale, including small-batch distillates.

Extremely comfortable and welcoming brewery with a good selection of beers ranging from light bodied ales to stouts and flavored seltzers. Customer service is top notch and the brew master even took a moment to say hello to us. Really love the vibe of this place and it is close to Howes Caverns which is a well known tourist spot.

This little place was awesome. The food from JoJo's kitchen was delicious and the beers from Serious Brewing company was great! I recommend the Sour Cider. 😋🍻

Great pit stop along the road if you’re passing through. Enjoyed the IPA #4 and root beer. Took some to go! Bonus scritches for the good-est pup. Father-son team running the place were friendly. Following COVID guidelines to a t. Would return.

Wow! What an awesome place! Their beer and ciders are top notch but its the Owners Bill and Fred that make the beverages go down so smooth and easy! We thoroughly enjoyed our time at their place! Made my wife and I feel like regulars. Great location near both Howes Caverns and Secret Caverns. Make sure you stop if your in the area. We look forward to our next trip!

This is a very friendly beer brewery the second you walk in they will give you a menu and offer you ask kinds of beer. They have a huge selection and good teasing beers this is my second time visiting the first time was about 3 years ago when I first visited howe caverns and it's very close to the caves howe and secret caverns, they're only open in the weekends, they fill up the cans of beer on the spot everything is fresh stuff the can watch them seal it off and the have good prices, today they have a deal for 3 cans. They also have some souvenirs in their store and the store it self is also very nice

Really good beer served by a really nice father/son pair. They have a great selection (not all IPAs) and the people who run it are splendid. Plus they have to go cans, not just growlers - what a great idea! The dad showed our kids how to can the to go beers. Note that food is separate and must be ordered/picked up at the counter. Highly recommended for a visit if you are in the area.

Stopped here after a visit to Howes Caverns. The bar area was a little small but there was plenty of general open seating. Nice varied selection of beers on tap and local ciders available. Having the BBQ joint in the same building made for a nice lunch.

More than meets the eye. Wide range of in-house brews and other local beers on tap. I enjoyed the IPA most. I'd suggest planning on eating here! We came after eating elsewhere and regretted it as Rub n Butts BBQ looked amazing. Definitely coming back next time we're in town.

Large variety of craft beers, so you should be able to find something you like. We particularly enjoyed the Hefeweizen and Anniversary brew. If not busy, the owners are pleasent to chat with. Bag of popcorn was $2!

My wife and I were on our way to the caverns and stopped in for a drink. The atmosphere was great and the second we sat down we were greeted with a drink overview a few samples. When ordering my drink the bartender insisted I try it first. I has the oatmeal stout which turned out to be one of the best I've ever had, my wife had a wine slushy made from Thousand Island Winery. If you're going to the cavern or just in the area then I definitely recommend stopping in for a drink.

Very nice little brewery. Glad to see that they had a good amount of non-IPA offerings on tap. All the beers we tried were very well crafted and the flight prices are a good deal. Will be back again if we are in the area.

My new favorite place! Beautiful inside and nice people. The pretzel was perfect after a little buzz. I had to buy a shirt and will definitely be going back☺️

Great family brewery with nice indoor and outdoor seating, great selection of their own brews with a good variety of other local beers on tap, plus wine. The food stand attached was excellent as well!

Fantastic place with an utterly spectacular selection of local brews. Talking with the owner feels like you've sat down with an old friend you've known forever. Very knowledgeable & can't say enough great things about it!

A wide variety of hand crafted beer. Great location, you can sit outside, at a high tops or tables and plenty of bar space to belly up to. From samples to pints and fillable cans to refillable grawlers. There is a beer for every one. A must stop! They put the craft in beer!

Best beer in all the microbrews that we've been too. The food is also great. Very hopeful picking out what you'd like and also the tour is worth seeing.

Very personable staff- took the time to explain all of the drinks on the menu. Very laidback atmosphere and great that we could bring our own snacks.

Ever since I was overseas I only like European beers. My dad had a beer from them that was modeled after a Hefe Vison from Germany. Best beer I have drank since my Army times. 100% will go again.
