For the Loungers
There is nothing better than kickin' back after a hike, or lunch, and enjoying a locally made craft brew. Luckily, the Great Northern Catskills are home to a growing micro-movement to create tasty brews using New York State-sourced ingredients.
Sample the region's crop of new bevies from microbreweries and hard ciders from its only cidery:
- Subversive Malting + Brewing in Catskill is a farmhouse craft brewery that uses the traditional floor malting technique to craft their signature brews. The kitchen offers burgers, sandwiches, salads, and kids items for a fun family meal.
- Hunter Mountain Brewery Kitchen & Craft Beer in Hunter offers 15 of their own handcrafted brews and a pairing pub menu with vegan and gluten free options.
- West Kill Brewery is a former farm-turned-brewhouse that features handcraft brews made with foraged ingredients and rooted in the Catskill Mountain's folklore. Look for pop up food options and other events.
- Left Bank Cidery is Greene County's first cidery. Located in Catskill, you'll find hard ciders made with locally and NYS-sourced apples.
For the Adventurous Spirits
How much time do you have? Hit the highlights or simply head for the horizon and see where the road takes you. Drive to the Catskills for a little E&E (Eating and Exploration). The region offers a growing number of roadside country stores complete with old-timey décor and goods, wine bars offering pairings with locally sourced cheeses, microbreweries galore, and unique, design-forward places to stay.
And, bonus, a trip to the Catskills offers complimentary views, hiking, and springtime artistic adventures. Check out the Catskills' top attractions and start your adventure.
