SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENTS
What a difference a year makes! This photo was taken this weekend last year, when we officially opened the tasting room.

While we are still a work in progress (i.e. have to get the website up! And a dishwasher), we've made a lot of strides (at least we have a sign out front - and a light on it

This weekend we'll be pouring some beers down at the Hudson River Exchange Summer Market. Come see us Friday evening and Saturday all day on the Hudson waterfront.

Also, for those planning for later in the summer, we are excited to participate in a few other events. In particular, Oxbow Brewing Company Pils + Love July 15th in South Portland, ME and Hill Farmstead Brewery Festival of Farmhouse Ales.

More news to come. In the meantime, if you have recommendations of places to stay and / or eat in Portland, ME we're all ears.

New to this thread, but just checked their facebook page and decided to post that for yall.

Question for anyone who frequents Suarez taproom often or at least a few times... I'm heading up there with a few friends tomorrow afternoon. I hope to taste a few beers there, and get some to-go. I see from the facebook page that some beers are marked *no growler fills, meaning that the others are good for fills.
So my questions is, do they sell actual Suarez growlers at the taproom? I see under glassware just tumblers and stemmed glasses, so just trying to clarify, because I'd like to buy a growler from them if they have them.

 

They do and they'll be in the 750 ml quantity.

 

$7 for the fill, $3 for the growler itself. An absolute STEAL.

 

Heading to Suarez on Saturday and was wondering if they ever open before noon? I was hoping to stop there before hitting Equilibrium on my trip back to PA from Vermont. Not that it makes a difference if I stop or not, but does anyone know what is on draft and available in bottles currently.

 

Doubt they would be open earlier, as they have a baby and already going to be open seven hours on Saturday. Hit Suarez after Equilibrium on your way back down to PA.

They should update the tap list again before your visit and also posted the following tease yesterday:

Enzo and I are scoping some sour cherries in the field today. It's a good change of pace being out here. A couple of these cherry varieties will hit beer this coming week! We're lucky to be located amidst so many orchards and fruit growers.

 

Also, Sloop Brewing is real close to Suarez and might make the difference on paying the extra bridge tolls on your trip.

 

@mafrick17 I highly recommend you try the helles while it is on. I think it's the best I have had stateside. Backroads is really good too and nice to be able to drink on draft. Take advantage.

 

Thanks for the help. It would be nice to hit Equilibrium first, but this is going to be the end of a 4 day beer adventure from Central PA into Boston, to Burlington, and back home. I really don't want to add anymore time to my already ridiculous amount of driving.

 

I will certainly give the Helles a try assuming it will still be on tap Saturday afternoon.

 

So how was it......or are you going this coming Saturday. Where in Central PA are you?

 

I am going to be there Saturday afternoon. I am in Williamsport but will be coming down from Burlington.

 

Going tomorrow, we will try not to drink it all

 

Damn! almost two hours from me in Mechanicsburg area.......sounds like a good time. I have two bottles from them that I am looking forward to sharing

What is the typical price point for their bottles?

 

$14/$15

 

I paid $16 in NYC but I think they are $14 at the brewery.

 

good pricing for the quality......or so I hear. I haven't tried them yet, but I looking forward to......

 

Mmmmm Slow Bustle. So good. They all are, but Slow Bustle my fav.

 

Agreed. Loooove Slow Bustle. Buuuut, I have to try the Vintage (which may be available still) before making any hasty decisions on favorites. Also, Backroads is damn good.

They all are good though, as you said.

 

The vintage is incredible. @mafrick17 it's a bit pricey for a 500ml at $12 but well worth it. Get a few bottles, you won't regret it. All their bottles are amazing, really, but the vintage stands out. Prob my favorite bottle, that or Big Night, which, sadly, is no longer there.
