The cider that Steve and I was so impressed by was their Dry Cider, the classic version. I do love dry ciders and they are my preferred cider type over the really sweet fruity ones and this cider fit the bill and hit al the right spots to grant them five stars. It's very unfortunate that this cidery closed but cideries aren't immune to the shrinkage that craft breweries are going through which is resulting in a large amount of closures for various reasons. But it's especially unfortunate when a good product an brand goes under from this ongoing phenomenon.

They are calling 1/2 full glasses a flight and the sign reads 3 half glass flight for $6. When you actually get 3 1/2 full glasses for $18.... First off a flight is a sample to see if you want a larger glass. So deception #1 it's not a real flight. Deception #2 it's more expensive to get a flight of 3 1/2 glasses than 2 full glasses. No way to try which kind you like without getting a 1/2 glass of something you don't want. Advice try 2 and get 2 full glasses for less cost. Redo your sign or get a real flight of tiny samples so people can taste all the flavors and choose a larger glass of what kind they want.... Very deceptive... A drink holder is not a flight. A flight is a sample and a 1/2 glass is not a sample. $6 a half glass and $8 a full glass. Just go with a full glass and share. Very dissapointed with the sign/flight non-sense.

The owner seems very dedicated to having live music and supporting the arts so they had a band playing that actually sounded good! Lots of young families around enjoying the lawn games. Local ciders and beers were reasonably priced and tasty. I'm usually not the biggest fan of either but I ended up trying a peanut butter cider that turned out to be absolutely delicious. Not too sweet or tart and tasted actually quite natural. Ended up taking a growler home to share with friends. We weren't hungry so we didn't try the food but they had a chicken barbecue going and were selling cheese boards that looked pretty great.

They are seeking perfection in more approachable styles as a art form, not a business strategy, and are not engaging in an arms race for bigger beers. Greatly appreciate this, which is why I patronized them since opening. This review specifically covers the brewery space versus solely the beer alone. First time I came with a few buddies, when they were located in their main business. Place looked like an art gallery, which fit oddly well versus being off putting. It fit the beer well. Their canned options were limited, however we had plenty of the stuff on tap. Not many seats however plenty of standing tables which was fine given how long we had been driving. Winner was Crispy Little, which we grabbed a few 4 packs of. Greatly enjoyed the place, as it was one of the best and most enjoyable breweries we visited. Coming back the next year, the setup had become downright lame. Instead of using the indoor space for beer, it was just for merchandise and bottles to go. If you wanted to drink, they had an 'outdoor beer garden', which consisted of a small patio in the parking lot with a few barrels thrown about. With only 2 beer options. And the bartender couldn't be bothered to pour them correctly, in between bad mouthing another brewery down the road. Not exactly a good look, even though the schwartzbier I had was solid (have had Bones Shirt a ton). Need to loop back and try it again now that the taproom in the back has been opened. May revisit this then. I just hope they got rid of that bartender, as microbreweries bashing each other is not cool; he wasn't one of the owners/main guys so at least there's that. Downgrading this 1 star because of that until I can revisit.

Suarez Family Brewery is a craft brewery that opened in Livingston, New York in August 2016. It was…read morefounded by husband and wife Dan and Taylor Cocalis Suarez. The couple first met when they both lived in Brooklyn. Dan started out as a homebrewer living in Brooklyn and eventually he got a job working for Sixpoint Brewery in 2007. He later connected with Hill Farmstead Brewery founder and brewer Shaun Hill. In 2011, Hill hired Dan to be his assistant brewer. The Suarezes left Brooklyn and moved to the Vermont countryside. After Hill took Dan on an inspiring beer trip in Belgium, the Suarezes began to look for a place to start their own family-run brewery. They re-settled in Livingston, New York because the Hudson Valley resembled the same idyllic, bucolic charm found in Vermont. The Suarezes set up shop in a disused, all-brick warehouse. Dan works as the brewmaster while Taylor runs the business side of the operation. The brewery specializes in lighter ales and lagers, or what Dan likes to call "crispy little beers". The same year they opened the brewery, the Suarezes also welcomed their first child, Enzo. Since opening, Suarez Family Brewery has gained a reputation for being one of the best breweries in the Northeast. I recently visited Suarez Family Brewery for the first time while I was driving through the Hudson Valley with my two sons. I had previously sampled some of their beer at a craft beer bar in Brooklyn, but a visit to the brewery had been on my bucket list for a while. A sign at the old brick warehouse informed us that the taproom had been moved to a new structure behind it. The taproom was small, but quiet and cozy. There were only a handful of other visitors during my visit. There was a table with scrap paper and crayons, much to the delight of my two sons. This kept them occupied while I sampled some tasty brews. The ones I tried were "Walk, Don't Run" (Hoppy Blonde Ale), "Crispy Little" (Hoppy Pale Ale), and "Backroads" (Sumac Country Beer). All three were great, but the latter was truly exceptional! I was VERY impressed with the types of beer coming out of the brewery. Before leaving, I also purchased a bottle of "Lo And Behold" (Barrel-Aged Flemish Red Ale) to bring home. I highly recommend Suarez Family Brewery to all serious craft beer aficionados!
