Day Trip to Hudson Valley

Planning a day trip around Suarez Family. May only have time to hit one more brewery and presume Sloop makes the most sense. If time allows, we may try to hit Rushing Duck on our way home.

It seems as though we'll have to go to a restaurant for lunch since food isn't a huge priority at any of these locations. Any recommendations nearby with a solid beer list?

Any advice at all is greatly appreciated!

 

Thanks so much for the reply- I love Eddie's. One question: I notice that they keep a ton of great cans that they don't advertise. Is that something where you have to ask, or will bartenders crack open a can because they like you? My other thought is that they have some type of can exchange.

 

The cans they advertise on their menu is normally from local breweries and it rotates. The last time I was there I had Stellar Wind from Finback so I don't think that part is the secret.

Last summer Eddie cracked open a Tree House Alter Ego out of the blue for my friend and me. On a recent UnTappd post, they referenced a can exchange at the bar when someone asked about Heady Topper.

 

That place looks awesome- thanks. After planning out the routes, we may end up only having time for Rushing Duck/Eddie's as the other places are an extra hour out of the way from where we are coming.

 

It's a Friday, unfortunately. I've heard good things about Plan Bee. Maybe next time!

Thanks for replying.

 

Heard great things about IA as well but yes, it takes us out of our way. If we lived in this area without young kids, we'd be crushing these places! Thoughts on RD?

 

Pulls us further out of our way but love what I have had from them. Next time!

Thanks for the reply.

 

Ended up heading to Suarez anyway and stopped at Daughter's for lunch- thanks for the recommendation! Food was very good (although the portions were a bit on the small size) and the people were very nice. HF Edward and Hudson Valley King Wavy were the tap highlights with some nice cans (Burial, Half Acre, Common Roots) and bottles (Oxbow, OH). OH can shipment delayed because of weather- expecting more next week.
