Ok, so the boyfriend is a huge beer snob. And he is delighted to find this place. The "flux capacitor" controls the carbon dioxide and nitrogen levels in the beer on tap, and there are apparently only six in the country. Maybe the world. So cool! They also have wine and some nibbles. Atmosphere and music are great. read more

I'm not sure how I've missed this place walking up and down Main Street-- but I'm glad I tried it now! Awesome beer selection, friendly staff, and good looking menu. I went with the fish tacos which were spicy but perfect. I'll be back! read more

Awesome find. Food was amazing! Nice selection of drinks and beer too. Def will be back soon!

What can I say, this place is everything we expected and more. My wife and I came here after a day on the river on the kayak. When we got there we weren't sure if we had to order inside first then sit outside. We sat outside and shortly after one of the bartenders came and greeted us with menus. We ordered the shrimp tacos and steak tacos. These were amazing! Another guy came out and asked if we wanted more beer, he recommended one to my wife and she loved it. Overall, great beer, good food and good service. We will definitely be back for more!!! Thanks guys for a nice set up. read more

Not the place I'd expect to have amazing tacos, but these guys crush it! Chips are crispy and delicious, seems like they fry them (or re-fry them) in house. Guacamole is good, salsa is just ok. But back to the tacos - they're amazing. $14 sounds like a high price, but they're big enough to split. Perfect after a long hike to the Beacon Fire Tower. Beer selection is great and the service tops it off. Seems like the employees are really into the beer and that helps a lot when you're not sure what to choose when faced with such a large menu. Good mix of locals and out of towners, feels like everyone is welcome. Been here twice, has def become a must stop when in Beacon. read more

Beer list is 5 stars. I'm extraordinarily impressed. Had 3 appetizers. Took about 35 mins, which is the only reason we're not seeing 5 stars on this review, considering there were about 3 groups of 3, including us. We had "The Dip" Artichokes/cheese/etc, falafel, hummus/chips, Chipotle chicken quesadilla. All were excellent. Only thing that concerns me is if they were actually busy. Excellent, excellent, craft beer bar with food otherwise. read more

Well...we didn't have any unpleasant experience with our bartender so I won't concur with other yelpers here. Troy (if I remember his name right) was helpful, engaging, and we enjoyed our time with an excellent beer from Non Sequitur. He was also helpful in humorously deflecting the insistent & loud conversational detours imposed on us by a kind of kooky local who ended up with us once more, on the 2nd stop of our crawl through Beacon. "I'm a fisherman, it's what I do." OK bro. Anyway, the covid restrictions were handled well and we'll be back, hopefully in a more healthy time. read more

This is my second visit to Draught and I'm again blown away by the amount of quality beers on tap! There's such a great mix of styles that you can find something for everyone. A few tables at the entrance and a long bar with around 16 seats. The epitome of a no frills bars that's dedicated to just providing good top of the line beers. Bartender was the same as the last time and he's friendly and attentive. They also have a crowler machine which is awesome, for those not always dedicated to wanting a full growler size to take home l. read more

Easily one of the best beer bars I've been to!! If you're into beer, this is the place to go - ranks up there with Torst in Brooklyn. Even if you're not super knowledgeable about beer, still come here. The staff are really friendly and love talking about beer and dropping some knowledge on you. This narrow bar was apparently an alley that was covered over - the space is long and narrow with exposed brick walls. The focal point is all of the taps and a big crazy gadget that manages the carbonation levels of each keg. I can't speak to the food because I did not try any, but their beer selection is A+. I think what impressed me most about Draught Industries was the staff. We talked to one guy for a while who was awesome - at 9pm he told us we needed to leave the bar and run over to try Hudson Valley Brewery before it closed at 10pm. I thought it was so great that they would actually encourage us to leave and try another place in the name of excellent beer - and also it was a great recommendation, I'm so glad we got to try that brewery! Next time I'm in Beacon I'll definitely head to Draught Industries. read more

This place was incredIbly packed when we were there and it waS hard to get service. Also, all of their beers were from ONE brewery in Brooklyn... we didn't travel all the way to the Hudson valley to drink beers we could get in our neighborhood! Besides that, the food was really good. We had the falafel and I would highly recommend. read more

Great beer selection! Great service! The bartenders were super friendly and funny. Smiths playing through the speakers just sealed the deal for me. We just had a couple beers and had to go but would have loved to try some of the snacks or dogs. Next time for sure! Check it out, it's a cool spot, especially if you love good beer! read more

Disclaimer: I'm not a huge beer person. That is, "I'm not a person who drinks a lot of beer." (Not "I'm a beer person who is small in size.") One more English lesson: this place is pronounced "draft". (If you thought it was pretty dumb of me to not know that already, please reread disclaimer above.) But I gotta say, I really liked Draught Industries! For the quality of food and beer + the price, I'd say in comparison to Beacon's other spots, it's worth the money. (Well, I guess I should explain that I shared the flight. Again, the disclaimer.) A flight of 4 beers for $10 and a great cheddar brat with a side of amazing herb fries for $9, it really is a great place to come chill with friends for a lighter, but still delicious meal. My friends ordered the hot dogs ($4! Nice!) and really enjoyed them as well. And if you ARE a huge beer drinker, I'm sure you'll love the varied selection of beer. ;) It's easy to miss, so just look for the "Bier" barrel hanging up above! read more

Draught Industries - Cheddar brat with herb fries. Loved the labeled flight too! - Beer Bar Near Me - Beacon, New York

The beer selection here blows my mind. They have an awesome curated Tap list that covers so many styles. They will help you select a beer based on what you like. The cocktails and food were great as well, my husband wouldn't stop raving about the boar burrito. Will be back for our next long weekend trip. read more

Came here during a weekend stay in Beacon. Amazing beer, even better food and a great ambiance! Will come here again, no question! read more

My partner and I came here for an impromptu trip to Beacon, NY. Great conversations and selection of beers. The menu has a long selection of craft beer, especially IPAs. The owners are very knowledgeable about beer and the industry. Come here if you're an aficionado. read more

This is the kind of bar that I wish was a quick stroll down the block from my house. Comfortable atmosphere, good vibe, not a dive, but also not so trendy that it tries too hard to be something it's not. Great selection of brews from throughout NY state (and some from not so close) that rotate periodically. The signage on the wall is colored in with chalk and decorated. Very visible and clear. Food menu is limited but some decent options. I opted to just have a baked pretzel with IPA infused cheese sauce to snack on while drinking. Pretzels and beer can't fail, great combo. The cheese sauce was awesome too. Definitely a place I'd like to frequent. Recommend to anyone coming up for a day/evening in Beacon or I'm search of a good place to grab a beer while out. read more

I have been here a few times and the vibe has changed (in a bad way) and the service is just too painful. They complain if you do not take your empties glasses back to the bar. I get they are not full service, but that seems over the top lazy. Food is Ok. Beer selection is great & fresh, but for the price there are better options (even in small Beacon). read more

Smallish but decent (for Craft beer drinkers) beer selection. Very nice bourbon selection for those who like enjoy the hard stuff. Includes Kentucky, New York and Rye varietals and come either neat or with soda. We only shared apps, basic bar food but good enough for what we were looking for. Overall a good place to spend some time with friends. read more

Found this amazingly magical kingdom of craft beers after a relatively rough hike with the kids at mt beacon - it was just what the doctor ordered! Great wings, even better fries, a solid crab cake Po boy and a Hill farmstead difference and repetition. Team was super laid back and really knowledgeable and encouraging - had John and Greg and space was clean and comfortable ( before the kids had their way). Highly recommend !! read more

Came here for a late drink on a random Tuesday. It was quiet and dark and had a lot of good beer. What more would you want? I'd imagine that on a weekend it might get a little packed. I liked that they have a long long table, so even if you can't sit at the bar, you can sit at this long high-top table that almost feels like a bar. Good for a group, if there are chairs available. The atmosphere was neat - exposed brick, industrial-style. I had a stout that was awesome. read more

Went with my wife on NYE before dinner, was a very chill vibe. 20 beers on tap with good variety, as well as a few craft bottles. Apparently it just changed ownership, and now has food (though we didn't have any). The new owners were bartending - they were very knowledgeable about beer and friendly. I eventually ordered a flight of 4, but the bartender also gave me tasters of a few others during our conversation. We especially liked the music, which was basically my high school playlist of the greatest alternative hits from the 90's and 00's. If you're looking for a good, laid back beer bar in the area then this is your place. read more

I come here at least once a month. Always good music and awesome service. The "single cut ddh workers are going home" beer taste so good taste Curtis clean and a hint of grape scent. The girl with the light eyes a big curly hair is welcoming, attentive, and knows her stuff. read more

Cool local bar with a great owner and bartenders who connect with their customers. Can always count on a fresh selection of monthly beers that keep your taste buds awake and wanting more. read more

So initially I had come here in the past when it was owned by a different person. Than it closed and I was bummed out. Than after some time it re opened, I was super excited because most of Beacon opens late or is closed during the day time. I ventured in and they had food?!?!? A huge perk. I was nervous but I ordered the short rib panini. The short rib itself was like butter super tender and you could cut through it with a spoon. Warm and delicious. Than I came in today and they had my favorite tomato basil. So so so good I would have licked the bowl if I could. Beer selection is always on point, Maine, hill farmstead, Hudson valley brewery, Suarez. I am very happy for the new owners best of luck guys. Keep the beer a pouring. read more

Great to have a bar in Beacon with such a great beer selection. You can tell that these guys keep up with the best breweries making a dent on the beer industry. I really like the relaxed atmosphere and brick walls. I had a great beer there from a new local brewery, Hudson Valley Brewery that was delicious! Tasty paninis too! read more

Great beer from all over! Great service and friendly staff. This place has a great ambiance to it. So comfortable to chill and talk and have a good ol beer! Enjoy! read more

Looove this place!!! 4-hipstars! We ordered just small plates to share: Moroccan meat balls, ceviche, and sweet chili wings and it was delicious. The craft beer selection was better than most places; clean lines and fresh tasting. There is an extravagant looking beer dispersion panel right at the bar which looks impressive. Simple and chic, will definitely be adding this place to our routine stops. One minor deterrent, there some less than nice looking locals loitering near the entrance but the Owner (Bobby)seems to keeping that at bay. Push your way through and chill out with some Red Hot Chili Peppers in the background. read more

Draught Industries - These are a must try! Delicious with a nice cold one or three to wash it down. - Beer Bar Near Me - Beacon, New York

The hours on Sunday are listed until 10 p.m. We came here about 5-10 minutes before 9 and indeed they were open but was only driven a drink menu. When I asked about food I was informed the kitchen was closed. I can't find anything on their website about having kitchen hours end earlier. We were at another place in town before where they were out of the first thing I wanted to order and then were also of my next choice so I had just had it and found Draught online. So then upon arriving there well before closing hours I felt rather cockblocked, so to speak, for lack of food. Not being able to have dinner at Draught we left and went to Quinn's, which is a ramen place in town for those of you who may not know. There, they were out of the standard ramen broth. Yes, the ramen place was out of ramen broth, I shit you not. You could get the fish broth, the veggie broth, just not the fucking normal broth which is substantially richer. I mean really, what the hell is that. So Draught just played a particularly annoying role in an evening where I was denied at every turn. I know what you're thinking, I'm ridiculous. Well I am ridiculous, and so are you. The whole goddamn world is ridiculous with people's ridiculous "first world" problems like this, but I guess given our hypocrisy one may as well say it shouldn't be too hard to post separate kitchen hours on your website so some horrible privileged person like myself, or perhaps even a substantially less privileged person for that matter, won't make the decision to leave their first destination, having been denied both a Korean pork burger and soft shell crap sandwich, only to arrive at your joint only to be thwarted yet again, which then in turn results in being thwarted a third time with a ramen place which is out of ramen traditional pork broth. God that ramen thing is so ridiculous I can't get over it really. Well at the end of the day I shouldn't complain. We had a lovely vacation in Vermont and Quebec. I hiked up a fairly sizeable mountain and had an extraordinary and decadent meal in Montreal. Foie gras, cheese, tarts, maple syrup, blood sausage. I have a pretty easy life too. So do a lot of other people who write Yelp reviews. Let's all take the time now to consider our place in relation to each other and to humanity, and to examine why we write reviews of things at all, and to examine our own habits and attitudes towards things. Well now I'm getting off on one of my little tangents here, aren't I. Nonwithstanding all that, Sunday night in Beacon was just a night of horrible ironies when it came to finding dinner fairly late at night (but not after Draught's closing time). The ramen at Quinn's was actually pretty good outside of the fact that I had to get it with the fucking fish broth which just isn't nearly as tasty as the real thing. Of course that's such a huge part of the dish that essentially any good qualities are negated. They were also out of a couple other things on the menu. read more

This place is very near and dear to me cause it's one of the spots my bf and I went on our first day. The atmosphere is very chill and the beers are on point. I've been here 3-4 times since our first date and I always love their beers on tap. I haven't been disappointed yet. I haven't tried any of the food here but maybe next time I will! read more

Small bar in the middle of Beacon just off the corner. Have a lot of beers on tap and has a check in offer your first Crowler. I got the chipotle burrito. Had homemade salsa and avocado on top of the burrito. The spice was just right for me, very filling read more

My friend and I came here after a solid recommendation from someone we know. We'd checked out the menu ahead of time and were super excited about some of the creative options provided. When we arrived around 7, we ordered beers (excellent selection!) and food: duck enmoladas and short rib enchiladas. At around the half hour mark we started to get curious about where our food was, especially since we hadn't ordered a starter. The bar tenders assured us that we'd have our food shortly. Fast forward another 30 minutes our food arrived and, to our disappointment, barely reached room temperature - especially because the flavor was so amazing!! Despite this issue, the guys behind the bar were absolutely stellar. They took great care of us and definitely earned 4 stars. Mistakes happen, and I would absolutely give this place another shot in the future. read more

3.5 stars.. First of all, Draught Industries is currently miscategorized on Yelp as a brewery which it is not, that should be fixed soon though. Draught Industries is a specialty bar for beer snobs so if that's your scene this is your bar. They have 20 beers on tap from craft breweries around the world. Flights of 4 are $12 and pints are rather pricey where most are $9 (the prices ranged from $5-10 but there was only one option at $5). The beers are constantly changing so it's not really worth mentioning any of the specific beers I tried, they do have a good variety of options available though. I don't believe they had any food here other than free popcorn. The place is pretty small without much going on as it's just a long space comprising of an ultra long bar with stools. I think Main street in Beacon is beautiful and I can appreciate a beer lovers bar but Draught was just too expensive without enough going for it to warrant a return trip anytime soon. read more

This is a fun place on the weekend. The crowd is always outgoing and you'll probably leave this place with some new friends in Beacon! In addition to a great selection of drinks, they serve some really good food. Get the truffle mushroom pizza! read more

I came here a few years ago with a friend and remembered it being a cool space. When I was in Beacon a few weeks ago and hungry, we decided to come here. Such a good decision! It's a tiny little space, but they have an AMAZING beer offering and the food was delicious too. On a Sunday afternoon it was pretty relaxed and the bartenders were knowledgeable and great. Definitely go! read more

Great selection of beer on tap. Vibes are "dude bar" inside--men outnumbered women significantly, sports on TV, mildly unpleasant odor (musty/old cheese). Sit outside and enjoy, ladies. read more

Amazing beer selection from all around and the food is beyond amazing! The crab cake po boy was perfect and the fries were nice and crispy! Service is always top notch and knowledgeable about their products. What they lack in size surely makes up for in the ability to make you feel like you're getting your money's worth and that's all I ever want out of a place. Absolutely stop in here if you're craving a great beer and/or great food. read more

So good. The beer selection is amazing. New owners, Greg and Bobby are awesome. They are clearly passionate about what they've just taken on. They're tapping incredible microbrews from Hudson Valley and beyond. Liquor from local distilleries is on the way as well. The relationships these guys have built has gotten them first tastes on many good brews. We didn't try the food, and while the menu had just a handful of items, we were told it would be soon expanding. We're looking forward to returning to check it out, but especially to drink more beer. read more

My favorite craft beer bar in NY I've visited. Always an amazing tap list of local beers with beers from around the country mixed in. The owners clearly have some connections in the beer distribution world. Hill Farmstead, Other Half, Hudson Valley Brewery, LIC, etc etc etc are all regulars on the tap list. My non-craft beer drinking wife likes it too because they usually have prosecco, wine, and local ciders available. Oh, and they have a great selection of bourbons now too from local distilleries and some of the more common favorites. Food is great too. Constantly changing menu from simple, delicious bar food like buffalo wings to more creative dishes like Moroccan meatballs. Something for everyone. Environment is chill and laid back. The bartenders are knowledgeable and friendly. If there is a sports game on you want to watch, they'll turn it on for you. The place doesn't feel like a sports bar though as the TV are not front and center but still a great place to have a beer and watch some of the game. Perfect spot to come to after hiking Mt. Beacon or if you're just out around Beacon. Def worth a visit. read more
