Mid-Atlantic breweries in planning (2019)

Update: Also a new spot in Avon called Rising Storm that's getting some buzz.

I love the Finger Lakes.

 

Couple new places incoming:

Torch & Crown: Opening a taproom in Soho this summer. I guess they've been canning for a few months and they drop those cans (and kegs) at choice spots across the city. Haven't heard a word on quality or anything, though.

From the Ground: Opening a taproom inside a storage container in Tivoli/Red Hook. No date, but it looks like relatively soon. They've actually been bottling for a while and you can randomly find the stuff in Hudson, and what I've had has been legitimately really good. Focus is on saisons.

 

New spot planned for Sugar Loaf, NY about 4-5 miles from Rushing Duck. Gonna be called Tin Barn Brewing and it's taking over an old auction house.

OH Rochester is officially open for bidness.

 

These guys have their first beers on as of yesterday. Will scope it out in the next week or two

 

Stopped at Philly Brewing, had a pils (definitely more of a Vienna lager) but it was solid enough. The food and patio have always been the draw here anyhow, but it's nice that they're making their own stuff.

The brewery above Lionheart in Albany is being worked on as we speak, dude said they're looking at probably a fall opening there.

 

Got some updates:

1) Brewery being built in Broadalbin called Great Sacandaga Brewing. Should be open this year but no word on when exactly.

2) Table 41 in Cohoes looks very close to opening, but no exact date.

3) After like two years we finally have some movement from Collar City Brewing in Troy. They brewed a collab with Frog Alley, a NE session IPA, and early word seems to be super positive. And there’s been some activity up at the old church they’re renovating — landscaping, sprucing up, etc.

4) Whitman Brewing in Saratoga has done a few collabs. One w/ Emporium Brewing in Canada and the other with Five Churches out of Connecticut. Neither has hit around here yet but excited to check them out.

 

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand the big one.

Singlecut North finally opening mid-July. Exact date when I have it.

 

Not a ton of info on this but Hudson River Brewing Company is slated to open this year.

Not to be confused with Hudson Valley Brewing, Hudson Brewing, Hudson Ale Works or Hank Hudson Brewing.

 

News coming fast and-a furious lately.

Foreign Objects apparently has a sister brewery? Discord Beer Co. No idea if there is brewer/employee overlap or what but looks like they focus on sour IPAs and are already connected w/ Remarkable Liquids, Sarene and CBG for tri-state distro. Their first beer is supposed to hit next week.

No taproom or any info whatsoever on where they're based so it appears to be a gypsy/nomadic situation for the time being.

 

Cool story on this:
