    Delicious food and awesome beer!!!!

    Food was delicious, service was friendly and quick, and the beers were all so good!!!

    Such a cute spot. We drank some beers, some wines, had burgers, tacos, cheese boards. Lots of options for everyone. Definitely A cute brewery with lots of outdoor seating that is dog friendly.

    Lucked out in rolling up just in time for trivia on Thursday at 630 (every other week? Would want to verify). Great space with indoor and outdoor (covered) seating. Food so good it feels like an injustice to call it "bar food". The spinach dip and fries were top tier. Great brews according to my partner, and for my sober azz a soda with bitters always works (also have sodas and spindrifts). Staff was friendly and trivia was truly a good time! Great host and reasonable questions.

    A nice village hangout spot, with plenty of options for food, drinks, and patio seating, which I think is the best part! I had their pretty pink beer slushie, made from their Forbidden Fruit Black Currant Sour Ale, and a classic burger with fries. It's a good quality burger with crispy fries. On a warm night, the slushie was the perfect complement to the meal. For a brewery, there's a number of other stuff on the menu if you don't want a burger or need a vegetarian option. After my entire family's order, it didn't take long for all the food to come out. I did not mind enjoying the chill atmosphere and green surroundings while we waited. I'm very curious about how they chose the name for the brewery. (Sounds cool?) I can't wait to come back when I'm in the area!

    Classic burger $15

    The restaurant was recommended by a local. We ordered the classic burger with the beer flight. Price point was pretty good for the amount of food and drinks we received. The food came out pretty quick and it was very filling. The cashier was very polite and helped us select our food. Certainly had a good overall experience. Pro tip: the burger taste better with ketchup.

    Buffalo chicken salad

    A very welcoming spot right outside the main town area, with seamless indoor/outdoor picnic table seating and good and filling food. I enjoyed a lager with their buffalo chicken salad. Hubs enjoyed their buffalo sandwich with fries. Definitely recommend for a quick and delicious meal.

    A small inside but nice outdoor space that was pretty poppin on the Saturday we ventured over. The food and beer was a hit. Nice portion size. Being that the inside is so small it was kind of awkward that the one waitstaff would just be standing waiting by the kitchen(?) It helped to achieve quick service as he was just right there and but also made it feel like he was just watching us eat. I noted that they have a sign on the door to not bring dogs inside yet allowed several people to do so which was annoying. These were clearly not service animals as they were jumping on people and not obedient to their owners. All in all we would probably come back in warmer weather and try the outdoor space.

    Quaint and small, this place is 100% New York State. Outdoor seating with propane fires, and indie bar seating with a full menu.

    House lager

    Found this place while in the area for garlic fest. Cozy atmosphere. There's seating outside with fire pits and picnic type tables around where live music is preformed. Definitely nice for a date, guys or girls night out. It just happened to be Oktoberfest the day my friends and I came. They offered an Oktoberfest menu for food. Not sure what the food offerings are otherwise as I didn't see another menu. For my beer I went with the local lager. It was light and an easy drinking beer. Their pour sizes are different...7.5 oz, 13 oz or 18 oz. Prices were decent as well. It was $10 for an 18 oz pour. I would be back if I'm ever in the area again.

    I discovered this place last summer and it's quickly become one of my favorite local spots when we're in the Hudson valley. My family has a wide range of beer preferences and their rotating draft list has something for everyone - though I'm a fan of their New England IPAs and sours myself. Every time I've been there's a little tent outside the brewery with an impressive pizza oven serving a rotating menu of amazing wood-fired pizzas. I was absolutely blown away by how good these are and they're the perfect pairing for the awesome beer this place has on tap. I think they've opened up a full kitchen since I was last here, so I'm dying to go back and give it a try. There's a ton of outdoor seating and a charming heated tent + fire places make it accessible in the winter. The indoor seating is minimal, but I've never needed it. There's a little parking lot + tons of street parking and dogs are allowed outside, so this place is a win all around in my book.

    We came here after a beautiful hike at the Kaarterskill trail. The place was busy. Food came out quickly. However, we asked for well done burgers and they were half cooked. When he asked them to give us well done burger as they explain how they do this burgers. We could visible see the burger wasn't well done. My wife asked for a side salad instead of fries, it was a spring mix salad and it was old.

    The town of Catskill is where it's at !! Artist, dreamers, and outdoor lovers all agree. Only an hour drive from the Capital Region and 2 hour drive from NYC. Catskill has it all, 2 breweries, coffee shops, good food and outdoor fun. Bring the dog, dog friendly shops and streets. We walked over from downtown Catskill to Subversive brewery for a long over due hangout by the fire pit. Excellent beer selection to stay or to go, all made with NYS local (hops). Plenty of space for a large group or grad a smaller table for an intimate drinking experience. This holiday season shop locally and drive over to Subversive for perfect gift giving ideas.

    Pretty good spot. They make the most of the plot of land they have with outdoor seating with fire pits, a heated tent, and some seating indoors. I tried the porter, and it was good. Nothing special, but good. They do have a food menu. Definitely, the best thing is the burger, in my opinion. I tried a bunch of different things. Stay away from the Gruyère Brussel sprouts. They are just under roasted Brussel sprouts with a plop of cheese on top that congeals into a blob. Not very appetizing. The burger was good though. I found the bartenders to be very surly. There was no warm greeting, no assistance with any beers, and that did change my opinion of the place. It would be way better if it was a warm and inviting atmosphere.

    Beer!!!
