We went on a Thursday night and as one would expect, it wasn't all too busy in the early evening. The brewery is located in a refurbished barn, and there's plenty of space inside and out. We had pretty much any choice of seating and started with their Festbier & Altbier. For food we shared their Bavarian Pretzel Bites, Pork Schnitzel & their Beer Brat. All of it was excellent - days later and we're still talking about their coleslaw. In a world where breweries have opted for serving pizza, it was a fun change to have German food. If it was closer to where we lived, we'd definitely go back! I'd love to try their smoke brisket sandwich.

4 - I'd drive 30 minutes out of my way just to come here. Skip to the end to see my rating scale…read more Climbing Bines was one of seven breweries we visited on our recent trip to the FLX region, specifically Seneca Lake. To be consistent with my rating scale I really had to think hard about this one because there are quite a few good breweries right around Watkins Glen. When I asked myself if I'd be willing to drive 30 minutes to bypass a couple of other breweries to get there the answer was yes - depending on the weather. The tap room has the earthy feel that I find comfortable, it has a really nice outdoor seating areas, and its super dog friendly. Although there are some better beers close by, Climbing Bines gets bonus points from me for the ambiance and scenery. It really is a relaxing and aesthetically pleasing place. Don't get me wrong, the beers are OK, but I'd mostly drive a bit to hang out there for an evening if it's sunny and if there's a food truck. My rating scale: 1 - Just don't 2 - You'll survive, but there are better choices close by 3 - Good choice if you're in the area 4 - I'd drive 30 minutes out of my way just to come here 5 - I'd try to convince my wife to drive an hour just to come here

We learned they don't actually make their own beer however they have some amazing local beers. I was excited to order a heady topper double ipa from Vermont!
