Two Way Brewing Company

Really nice location near the riverfront and train station. Epic sunset views. Light floods the taproom during the evenings. Server was very kind and accommodating. Nice lineup of beers and a number of can options. Also crowlers. Definitely a spot you want to add to your list if visiting Beacon or the surrounding area.

Smaller, funky, local neighborhood kinda place, just a few minutes from the downtown/Main Street area of Beacon.

A mid sized bar and a few tables inside, plus a comfortable and pleasant outside seating area, with a view of the Hudson River in the distance.

Friendly guy behind the bar is always a plus!

Quality brews in a variety of styles for onsite or take away in growlers/crowlers. A bonus is that this also is an outpost location for a quality local BBQ restaurant.....so good beer, quality food option, all in a friendly and low key kinda atmosphere spot...worth a visit.

This is a little brewery with a cool and comfortable tasting room. Plenty of parking space too. Inside the place is a bit dark with a bar that can seat about 8, plenty of tables, and a comfy couch seating area. Shuffleboard here if you want to play something and drink. Brewing area is visible from the bar. There were 8 beers on draft, and the few that I had were good. Service was friendly and prompt. Definitely worthy of a stop.

I love this place. Owner Mike goes through great lengths to provide a superb quality beer selection and Dawna at the bar makes you want to stay for more everytime!!

Small tap room a few blocks from the Beacon Train station. Plenty of parking and seating. They added a new patio in the fall which I need to check out. They usually have 6-8 beers on tap and nice variety. Overall their beers are pretty solid and I would definitely recommend checking this place out. They offer a few snacks but no real food menu.

 

 

 

Behold Beacon, suddenly a powerhouse of beer and coffee. I said it before, but I still remember when the town was a shell of boarded-up buildings. Now it’s all twelve-dollar beers and specialty foods.

The 2 Way Brewing taphouse is between Main Street and the railroad station but closer to the train. Sparsely populated on a weekday evening, the wife and I had a good time there, perusing the local art for sale on the walls and trying some of their beers.

Not a whole lot on tap, though- just five or six handles. I tasted the Heart of Darkness stout, Climb High P.A. IPA, Confusion Farmhouse (their flagship) and Hop Project Bravo. Nothing bad but nothing exciting; this is the kind of brewery that does a basic lineup of basic styles and does not seem to be too interested in branching out into adventurous territory.

Great new place to have in the area.
Its perfect for a train ride up from the city on Metro North. Not even a 2 minute walk from the platform.
Inside is open and has a friendly atmosphere You can see where they still are updating and growing in some area.
The staff were super friendly and open to ideas and suggestions.
Im excited to see what beers will be put out by these guys In the future.

 

Plenty of parking for a the small tap room. 4 beers on tap, friendly service and decent tap room prices and options to try the beers with ample seating.

Problem I had was with growler prices, 20 for a fill of a growler for an average pale ale or actually any of their options which were all standard beers (I did not have time so only tried the pale ale) is really high in my opinion. Doesn't seem like good way to get your local beer out in the market

 

Today was the grand opening, and our small crew had the distinction of being the first non-family customers. The taproom is huge, bright, and airy with a view of the Hudson river in the short distance. There is still some construction to be done, but the temporary plywood bar top was well lacquered and up for the task. The crew provided Sharpies for patrons to sign their names and, or impart their well-wishes. (a nice personal touch) Their was no food, and I forgot to ask if food-trucks were in the future, but there is ample parking lot to allow for it and the Beacon Farmer Market is just down the road on weekends. They had 4 beers on tap, all fairly solid and tasty. Overall a pleasant and enjoyable time was had.
