Mid-Atlantic Breweries in Planning (2024)

To be clear the Branch brewery is on the North Fork in Mattituck, east of Riverhead.

 

Yeah. And Long Branch has the Long Branch branch of the Red Bank bank.

 

I just heard about this brewery and assumed it was in the Village of the Branch, which is a super bougie north shore area.

Is this a new spot, or did they take over a now defunct brewery?

 

Spelling Sk . . .les isn't as hard as guessing the pronunciation. Ska-needles? anybocy?

 

I’ve heard it pronounced as Skin-ee-at-las

 

Ditto. Also heard Skan-ee-at-less. *** Edit. The village website says… https://www.villageofskaneateles.co...teles comes from,the Great Spirit on creation. ***. “The more you know”

 

Hmmm… I have only had a few, and they were good. Elmira is just outside my normal range, and it has been a while since last visiting Penn Yan.

Maybe it’s time to change that. Also a chance to see if Laurentide is filling crowlers yet, try Relative Risk (their hours are a challenge), and it looks like Seneca Stag is serving their own brews now. Heck, might even make it a weekend tour.

Thanks for the update.

 

If folks are cruising that area, you can’t miss Spotted Duck ice cream. It’s a whole vibe.

 

Relative Risk a big yes...Seneca Stag though, cannot recommend.

 

In the ashes of Scorpion Brewing's (Owings MD) closing this weekend there was a post on their facebook about a new venture. On the mobile facebook I saw an associated page for "Unauthorized Brewing" in North Beach MD along with a landing page website. The facebook page was also brand new. I would wager this is the replacement venture in the ashes of Scorpion Brewing.... 13 minutes from Scorpion and on the water.

 

So meager details. I talked to Scorpion's owner and he was saying there was a trio opening up a 2bbl system in North Beach, MD. I was given a few other details about Scorpion's winddown but they've been in communication, to put it that way, long before Scorpion's demise via rent increase.

I don't feel giving a whole lot more because I might get the information wrong. Either case Scorpion's own facebook telegraphed this and I wish them good luck as they're about the 6th or 7th closest brewery to me in my portion of the metro area.

 

Anyone heard anything about this? Farm.One Brew Lab (Prospect Heights, Brooklyn).

Not clear if they have actually brewed anything yet.

 

And a very nicely done West Coast IPA with plans for a dortmunder.
