Small hip brewery in Troy NY with an artsy quaint flare to it. Food is decent, beer is adequate, and seating could be a problem during busy time periods.

Went on a Wednesday afternoon and hit happy hour and had a good time. Some people were chilling and they had good music (I won't hold Troy's terrible street grid and lack of parking against place) and the bartender was a little familiar w/ the VA brewing scene so had a great chat. The beers I had were so-so and they only had six on tap so actual beerwise I can't say that this place stood out but if you're in the area it's worth checking out.

Great little Bar with great people.
The beers I have had are all solid. Nothing that blows my mind but it is a great place to stop by for a beer.

Cozy little brewery/taproom in an up and coming section of town. All of the beers are solid with a couple of standouts (Imperial Coconut Cream Ale...). Definitely worth a stop as you wander around Troy.

stopped by this new brewery to have a couple beers during a happy hour on a Friday.
cool atmosphere. new facade on an older storefront in downtown Troy, the interior is modern clean woodwork. convex bar, with taps on right and left, and the fermenting tanks behind the bar in full view. a couple of low coffee tables and chairs besides the barstools.
they only had two of their beers on tap, plus a nonalcoholic ginger beer. they got wiped out by their grand opening, and an issue with their system. so they filled out the taps with a couple of guest beers, and a local hard cider.
bartenders were nice and friendly, I believe the owners. beers were $6 for a standard tulip glass.
