    This is one of our favorite breweries in the Hudson Valley. We love to meet friends here for a good beer and a good time. It may sound cheesy but it describes exactly the atmosphere of this place, a good time full of friendly people. It's a 2 two story building with plenty of seating. I have been here many a time where the upstairs is rented out for a private event. They also have two outside decks full of tables and chairs which is perfect to sit at when the weather is nice. And trust me when the weather is nice this place is packed!!!! The food here is delicious. In the warmer months they have a pizza food truck that comes. The pizza is sooo good my favorite is one they sell that has a white sauce on it instead of marinara it is delicious. The brewery itself makes small bites and has a few sandwiches that come with a bag of potato chips. They are also good. Last time we came our friends got the meatball sub and it was huge!!! They said it was amazing. They have a great selection of beers including IPAs, Stouts, Sours, and Ciders. I will say this brewery is what kindled my love for Sour beers. They have one that tastes like a red Starburst, so yummy! They also have non alcoholic beer and spirits on their menu. The staff is also friendly. I have seen them frazzled a time or two when it's really busy which is understandable. All in all it's good service both bar tenders and other staff that is working hard cleaning up tables ams sweeping to make sure the tables are ready for the next round of people. Also to note this is not table service. You go to the bar and order your food and either pay there or open a tab. They then bring out your food to you. You can also get beers to take home and other merchandise such as shirts, jackets, and some packaged food items. It very family friendly! Every time I come I see tons of families here, which is nice. Oh and the last thing to note the bathrooms are always clean!!! Which is something I really appreciate about any place that is serving food and drinks.

    You can't convince me otherwise that the best part of Beacon is Hudson Valley Brewery. My repeat trips to this quaint little town hinges on an end-of-day stop right here. What makes this establishment so memorable and so sought after? Let me count thy ways. Hudson Valley awaits at the end of Beacon's Main Street, a fitting finale to a day spent ducking in and out of shops. Its wide open spaces and available sitting is a welcome sight for sore feet. Its diverse array of drinks, from wines to beers to sours, will quench any type of thirst. My drink of choice are their sours, and as someone who previously did not like these kinds of drinks, I was thoroughly converted. Perfect for people who don't like beers, their sours are berry-forward with a tartness that cuts through the sweet flavors. It's so good, I even lugged a six-pack home all the way to the train and back to the city! You simply cannot visit Hudson Valley Brewery without trying their pizza. It's one of my favorites. Cooked in an outdoor brick oven, their pizzas are charred to perfection; their crust thin yet provides a satisfying substantial bite; and their pie topped with ooey gooey cheese. Although I don't doubt that anything you order will be delicious, I have tried their sausage and pepper pizza, as well as their margherita, and can attest to how delicious they are. If you're visiting Beacon, end your day here at Hudson Valley Brewery. It's the ideal last stop.

    I really can't say enough good things. Finally a brewery that loves and respects sours. Some of the best beer I've ever had. Not only do they taste and look amazing, but they smell great too! Service was very kind, not pushy or pompous like you see at some breweries.

    Very beautiful brewery with a lot of space inside and out. They offer many IPAs. But there is something for everybody on the draft menu. The price is really decent and the beer was refreshing. If you're deciding to do a beer walk, you can start at this brewery and work your way up back towards the train station in Beacon .

    Stopped by Hudson Valley Brewery during a day trip to Beacon after hiking. This place definitely draws a crowd indoors and outdoors! When we arrived, there were people everywhere and a massive queue to order. It didn't take too long to get to the front as there were multiple team members with POS systems taking orders at the bar and there was a worker by the line asking if we had any questions before ordering. I got myself the blueberry cider and it was super sour! Not my personal fave, but I really loved the vibes of this place. Super cute, warm lighting, and tons of seating types (couches, arm chairs, tables, etc.) Would come back again and try a different drink!

    Delicious sample of cider, thank you! Dnjoyed a full pint of milk stout and it was delicious and even light for this type. The location and landscape is gorgeous. Thanks to a local and 'regular' at the Brewery, Barry, who was so friendly and treated me! Just a great place, look forward to return to eat with friends.

    So I haven't been here in forever but my husband and I stopped in to get out of the cold and enjoy a pour or two and wow, the renovations they've done since we were there last are beautiful! A lovely wood interior full of plants, a nice long bar, and lots of seating, Too cold for the patio when we were there, but it looks great. Beer was as incredible as ever. My husband loved his Pilsner and I had a great sour farmhouse ale. They have a pizza vendor on site, but we didn't eat. They looked good from afar though! Great accessibility. There's a steeper paved path to the tasting room from the lower parking area, but there is also a ramp around the other side of the building as well if you need it. They have multiple gender neutral single restrooms and a nice big family/accessible restroom complete with an easy to open soft close door. They also have an elevator!! A very welcome addition to a space that helps everyone enjoy it.

    A great place for relaxing with a nice cold beer and some pizza! The tap room is super spacious and the seats are first come, first serve. There is also an outdoor patio and tons of outdoor tables. There are tons of options for beers and the menu rotates but featured lots of local beers. There is a dining menu, but there is also a 3rd party pizza truck outside while the pizza ovens are getting renovated. The pizzas are great - wood fired and thin!

    Hudson Valley Brewery is a craft brewery that opened in Beacon, New York in February 2017. It was founded by John-Anthony Gargiulo and brewers Michael Renganeschi and Jason Synan. Gargiulo had spent several years working in the film industry in Los Angeles. Although he had worked as a dolly grip on some major films, and was on track for a promotion to key grip, he suddenly decided to give up his Hollywood career. The grind of the film industry had finally taken its toll on him. Gargiulo moved back in with his parents in the Hudson Valley and came up with an idea to start his own garage brewery. He eventually formed a partnership with Renganeschi and Synan who had brewed at the Brewery at Bacchus in New Paltz. The trio acquired an old factory building in Beacon that was in pretty bad shape. They gutted the whole place and got to work on setting up a brewery. When the brewery finally opened, they brewed a variety of different styles. However, it was their Sour IPAs that caused long lines to form outside on Saturday mornings. Today, Hudson Valley Brewery has earned a reputation for being not just one of the best breweries in the Hudson Valley but one of the best in the Northeast. I recently stopped at Hudson Valley Brewery while I was passing through the Hudson Valley. I had heard great things about them and I thought that I would stop there for dinner. The location in downtown Beacon is very charming. When I arrived, the place was packed. Their parking lot was completely filled, but fortunately I was able to finding street parking nearby. The brewery was beautiful and had plenty of seating inside and outside. I grabbed a seat inside and started off with short pours of "Giant Steps Backwards" (English-style Amber Ale; collab with Root + Branch Brewing & The Veil Brewing) and "Triple Pillow Hat" (Triple IPA). Both beers knocked my socks off! For food, I ordered the "Burrata & Blood Orange Salad" (fresh burrata with fennel, frisée, blood orange, pomegranate, hot honey and pistachio, dressed with Valley Beer lemon-saison vinaigrette). It was out of this world! Afterwards I had a delicious plate of "White Peach Gelato" (topped with sour amarena cherries in syrup and almond brittle) which I paired with short pours of "Pineapple Peach Glycerin" (Double Fruit Sour Double IPA) and "Valley Beer Vintage 2023: Cherry" (Wine Barrel-Aged Sour Farmhouse Ale). Again, my tastebuds went on a roller coaster ride. Hudson Valley Brewery didn't just meet my expectations... it surpassed them! I think they are easily on of the best breweries in the Northeast and I can't wait to return!

    A lovely brewery a short train ride outside of Manhattan -- they have a lovely outdoor patio that's easily accessible from the Beacon trailhead. We stopped by after hiking and it was a lovely way to end the day. They have a great selection of beers, wines and other drinks -- there's something for everyone. They have small bites and pizza too, all of the pies were fire. I'm obsessed with the branding and merch -- it's all done by Evan Cohen, who's one of my favorite artists! I'll definitely be back!

    Enjoying the delicious sour and the cool fall weather

    Was fortunate to visit this brewery in Beacon over the past weekend. Found it to be friendly, fun with delicious food and drink. The outside patio was where the real action was as friends both new and old gathered and enjoyed their pizzas, beer, cider and each other's company. Will definitely visit again.!

    Super nice staff. Lots of unique drink options. Love the pizza stand outside. Cool space and nice outdoor area.

    This is a lovely spot to hangout and have drinks. Somewhat long wait line to get drinks and food at peak hours. The pizza is great. The drinks were good. I had the pastel cider and enjoyed it. Clean bathrooms which is always a plus at these places.

    Enjoyed very much the Windrow Pale Lager!

We came here on a lazy Sunday as a party of 6 and really enjoyed the wide variety of beer selections. We had the IPA, brown ale, stout, and lager, all very good choices. Order at the bar, free popcorn machine with self-serve popcorn, lollipop on bar, plus a nice gentleman making paper airplanes for the children. How amazing is that? They had chalk by the sidewalk for the kids, super family friendly. They have a good truck outside but we didn't try it. Definitely will add this to our list of solid breweries to return to.

Walking through floor to ceiling windows into bar and dining area, the branded distinct hexagon pattern that we know containing the lengthy beers on tap. The glasses, the backsplash, art, they all lean into the brand. We were served quickly, and while there are not flights, the beertender offered us to taste test first. Amanda landed on the west coast IPA, and I chose the Screwdriver, a fruited sour in 10 oz pours, both were tasty. We added guacamole and chips which came out quick was house made. Fans outside on hot days. Also wheelchair accessible. Would we come back, questionable only because we know the brand from cans at home and there are so many great places nearby. You should stop to have some beer!

First, the bartender was so lovely! I don't drink so I was truly impressed with the number of non-alcoholic beverage options available. I initially ordered a non-alcoholic drink, but then I saw the Shark Attack Mocktail and asked if I could switch to that. Thankfully I caught her right before she started making the first drink! The mocktail was sooo cute and actually really tasty! (See photo I included). I loved the theme of it, especially as summertime is officially here. Now let's talk about the arcade part of this place! The machines take quarters, so use the ones you have in your pocket! No quarters? No problem! They have a machine that will give you them, however it only accepts $1 and $5 bills. No cash? Also not a problem! They have an ATM on site. They really did think of everything, here! Most of the games are old skool, such as Pac-Man, Pinball, Dance Dance Revolution, etc. They also have a claw machine, however it's rigged so don't waste your time or quarters on it (which is exactly what I did, hahah!). Pac-Man is two players and my husband and I had a lot of fun with that one! I also LOVED Dance Dance Revolution (located in the far left corner in the back, behind the bar area) and wish I had found it before I wasted most of our quarters. Most of the games take anywhere from $0.50 to $1 to play, so keep that in mind. The patio is very large and much quieter compared to inside. I loved the atmosphere with all the string lights! They also have two little seating areas that are gated (which kind of look like adult playhouses?) which I think would be an awesome spot to chill with your friends + your dog. No fear of your pup running off! Regarding food: they do have a small menu, however it's mostly snack items like mozzarella sticks, a giant pretzel, things to that nature. What's cool, though, is that they offer vegan chicken nuggets!! Not a lot of bars have these, so it's definitely worth noting. 11/10 recommend that you stop in here while visiting Beacon! We absolutely loved it and would come back in a heartbeat!
