    Have I died and gone to Heaven??!!!
    Matthew L.

    Half Time Beverage is a craft beer specialty store that opened in Poughkeepsie, New York in 2002. It was founded by father and son Alan and Jason Daniels. The two had an idea for a one-stop "beervana" shopping experience for craft beer drinkers. When they first opened, the 9,000-square-foot shop was stocked with 600 of the most exciting and unique beers that they could get their hands on. It wasn't before long when they realized that the demand for good craft beer far exceeded the immediate New York area, so Half Time became pioneers of direct-to-consumer online shipping, sending hard-to-find beers all the way across the country! In 2013, Half Time opened a second 20,000-square-foot location in Mamaroneck and their selection jumped to 5,000 unique brews. Half Time is now widely recognized as an active member of the craft beer community that frequently teams up with well known craft breweries for special releases and festivals. I first visited Half Time's original Poughkeepsie location back in 2010. A good friend of mine lived there at the time and he first introduced me to the shop. Recently, I paid a visit to the Mamaroneck location for the first time and I was blown away by their enormous selection. One thing that I really like about shopping at Half Time is that you're not obligated to purchase a whole 6-pack or case. You can get pick out any single bottles or cans and make your own mixed-packs. They even have a selection of 22 beers on draught for growler fills. The staff are also extremely helpful and knowledgeable. I ended up making some mixed packs of offerings from some of my favorite breweries like Other Half, Equilibrium, Evil Twin, Kings County Brewers Collective, Finback, and Decadent Ales. I promise that it won't be 13 years again before I make it back to Half Time!

    Order beer online and paid 110$ back on 1/29/23 as of 2/17/23 nothing. Email company and was told sent out on 2/6/23 but received zero tracking. First time ordering beer online and would not recommend this company. No help at all from emailing they say it's been shipped. No tracking number provided at all. Trust me stay away from this dysfunctional company. Ok let's update. So less then four hour the owner called me ( yes the owner) and made everything correct. Going above and beyond and making sure the customer is happy. Not to many companies today do what this company just did. I'm just one customer who he took time from his day to make sure I was happy. Please make sure if you are going online for all your beer needs you can't go wrong by using Half Time. SIX STARS

    Main entrance. Looks like a loading dock but the picture is highly deceiving. This place a totally amazing.

    This place is absolutely amazing! I'm a craft beer lover with almost 10,000 untappd check-ins and have never been to a place like this. Their selection is gigantic, the staff is outstanding, and the location is easily accessible. I heard the rumors about this place being like a Toys "R" Us for craft beer lovers, and they were all true. If you love craft beer, and are in the New York area, you need to get here! I would go there daily or weekly if I was not 10 hours away from New York.

    This is by far the best beer store around. All the sales people are very knowledgeable about all beers and very helpful.
