Having some of my favorite beer options from the local area / North East (shout out to Mast Landing's Gunners Daughter). Aside from the beer, the tacos here were incredible. They are not lying about the best tacos in town. Although the seating area is on the smaller side, it never felt cramped - it was the perfect spot to spend a few hours this rainy day. As a bonus, the bar tenders were super knowledgeable on the local beer scene. I really enjoyed hearing some of their stories on how certain breweries ended up on tap at Draught Industries. Hoping to be back again this summer/fall.

Beacon is a destination town for beer lovers. Between Industrial Arts (which brews some of my…read moreall-time favorite beers), Hudson Valley Brewery, Two Way, and a handful of others, you could spend a whole weekend here just brewery hopping. Draught Industries fits right into that scene. It's a spot run by people who clearly care about craft beer, with a long, rotating tap list and a laid-back, slightly quirky vibe. But what surprised me most was the food. I started with the pulled pork sandwich with ghost pepper aioli. The pork was tender and smoky, and the aioli brought real heat without drowning out the meat. If you like spice, get it. The real reason I'll be back, though, is the wild boar tacos. I love wild boar, and you almost never see it on a menu, so I ordered it the second I saw it. They come topped with guacamole, pineapple pico de gallo, and habanero peppers. The richness of the boar, the creamy guac, and the sweet pineapple against the habanero heat all worked together perfectly. Easily some of the best tacos I've had in the Hudson Valley. Great beer, bold food, and a menu willing to take chances. If you're doing a Beacon brewery crawl, make Draught Industries a stop. And come hungry.

Friendly waitress answered our menu questions and took our order quickly. We had the bar pretzel, grilled chicken sandwich, the mushroom burger and Chocolate Chip Lava cake. Both exceeded our expectations. Chicken sandwich had two juicy, seasoned pieces of chicken with toppings. Salad was fresh and house dressing was great. The mushroom burger was juicy and flavorful. The lava cookie cake lacked the lava typically expected but was nonetheless delicious, definitely would order again. There were two seating areas and a large bar that accommodated everyone well. Noise level was good, restroom was spacious and clean. Definitely going back when I'm town!!!!

She sold us on the brownie cheesecake for dessert, but the three of us couldn't finish it even though it was delicious. We were so full! Overall, I enjoyed this and look forward to returning. Great food, efficient and engaging service at reasonable prices make this a hit in my book.

Buffalo wings could use less sauce, there is a point where there is too much sauce when it's like wings soup so cut back on the sauce 50% and I think you would hit the sweet spot. The chicken tenders were cooked perfectly however the breading to meat ratio was way off. I'd rather less bread and the same amount of meat. The drink were great and with a little more attn to detail this place is going to be amazing.

It is then my heart heals. My party of six (6) adults decided on pizza. We did not wait for a table. We did not have any reservation, but entered on a whim for lunch. I have spent almost 2.75 hours travelling and suffering MTA NYC Transit weekend planned service work on a Sunday holiday weekend via MTA shuttle bus, subways A, L, 6 trains followed by Metro North Railroad to reach Enoteca Ama. My party inquired if there is a restroom for patrons' usage whom the male waiter mocked my female friend in a snide condescending tone "NO, there is none you would have to go out to do that!" Consequential, four stars and yes, there is one facility available which is relatively clean. The business name Italian literally translation means "wine repository" or "wine library," describes a local wine shop or wine. At first I thought the AMA sounded similar to AMC Theatres. The waitress was kind to take a group photo. There are no table cloth, but there are individual cloth napkins for linens. When inquiring if the bill can be divided individually our request was blatantly dismissed which ultimately it was entered in one bill for our party of six, totaling $155.70. Price is extortionate high as expected in 2026 economic stagflation era. Business cards are available for grabs. Enoteca AMA serves 12 inch, individual-sized cooked in a imported Italian Pavesi brick hearth wood fired oven which is not stated on their printed menu. Their menu is equivocate to obfuscate as it is not descriptive of the pizza ingredients. It obfuscate as it is not specific and very vague without any details. Perhaps, Enoteca Ama need a copywriter? I am very grateful for this individual 12 inch size as it is not large, but a fairly good size fit for one adult. There are many options for pizzas. I personally find standard cheese pizza to be morbidly boring. The staff and chef or cook is very accommodating with my one person in our party specific food preference and dietary request needs gluten free, vegetarian, no added salt. I requested cold water sustaining my thirst in addition to my libation. We were all satisfied with our respective selection of food and drink. Whereas, customer service including the resonate effects of communication is a different story. Prosciutto pizza $20.00 This was my selected pizza with Prosciutto ham, Stracciatella cheese, and arugula, NY style thin crust. I did not taste any figs. It was heavily topped with arugula which was exceedingly more the amount than average. The slices of cured ham was good. There were minimal tomato sauce. The crust was crispy, but as my standard I choose not to consume the end crust. The olive oil embedded was good. Montepulciano d'Abruzzo, Luna, Tuscany, Italy (red wine by the glass) $13.00 It is my favorite wine because it is medium-bodied of balanced acidity making it smooth and easy to drink with 13% ABV. It is a dry, long-lingering smoky-sweet finish. Aged in oak. At long last, I finally attained by the glass for libation immersed in full enjoyment of this smooth finish red wine. I actually taste the grape. Vegetariana pizza $17.00 Cappricciosa pizza $19.00 Vegetable panini $18.00 Burrata mango $18.00 Vegetariana pizza $17.00 Iced tea $3.00 X2 ($6.00) Ginger ale $3.50 Cappucciono $4.50 Cider pear $8.00 Go north young lady to Beacon, NY at Enoteca Ama!

After eating there, I can confidently say Doug, your pub makes pretty good food. Our party of four was seated at a high-top, and the feasting began. They've got a great beer selection and took care of us right away. Food-wise, we started with the chicken wings, which were huge and packed with flavor. For me, the main event was the original patty melt. You know when something tastes homemade, but in the absolute best way possible? That was this burger. It was hot, juicy, and dripping with flavor, with perfectly caramelized onions and melted cheese. What really made it work was the bread, it still had a crunch instead of turning soggy. Every dip into the Thousand Island just made it better. The onion rings were a perfect sidekick. Around the table, my brother-in-law went with the Nutty Hog and enjoyed it, my sister liked her quesadilla, and my wife was happy with her chicken. No complaints anywhere. You know how I feel about local spots, and this place was full of charm and character. The drinks were cold, the food was solid, and I'll absolutely be back. 5/5 stars

Walk in and you're greeted by a huge space with high ceilings and a massive outdoor deck overlooking the water. You can sit indoors or outside by the deck, but with a toddler, we opted for indoors. The restaurant is also very family-friendly, including a family restroom, which parents definitely appreciate! Huge shoutout to JAY C for the amazing hospitality! He was genuinely warm and attentive, making sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed with our little one. You can tell when someone is just doing their job versus when someone genuinely cares, and Jay C definitely falls into the latter! For the food, we went all in and ordered the Feast for Friends so we could try a little bit of everything. It does not come with brisket, so of course we had to add that separately for $9. We got the coleslaw and mashed potatoes for our sides, and honestly, everything was fantastically seasoned. The corn bread was out of this world too! The ribs were tender, but the Dino beef ribs were the MVP! Absolutely fantastic! The chicken was moist, flavorful, and had a little "Chinese kick" (kung pao) to it ;) The brisket was the only thing that was a little on the dry side for us. And those sides? My wife and I were basically fighting over them. Yes, they were THAT good. Next time, I already know what I'm ordering: ALL THE DINO BEEF RIBS. No sharing. After the meal, we took a nice little walk out on the deck and enjoyed the waterfront since the restaurant wasn't too crowded. Such a relaxing way to end the meal. And then, as we were leaving, we discovered the little mints by the entrance. A small touch, but always appreciated! Great food, great atmosphere, family-friendly, wonderful hospitality, and a beautiful waterfront setting. We will definitely be back!

We brought my daughter - she was thrilled with the view, watching the giant ships plow thru ice bergs on the frozen Hudson River. She loved her chicken fingers and fries and coloring book w crayons. Him and I do not eat meat. Ordered the veggie quesadilla and a side of fries to share. Holy crap that veggie quesadilla was DELICIOUS!!! I don't love that the fries are coated in flour, at a place like this you hope for a hearty potato-only steak fry. Also no malt vinegar to douse the floured fries in... but our awesome waiter Ryan mentioned to the manager, and he ordered a case of malt vinegar for our next trip - talk about service and pride in your business ! Love ya Billy Joes!!
