National Beer Day: Long Island Breweries

Happy National Beer Day! Join us in raising a pint to these local Long Island breweries.

Lithology Brewing Co. — 211A Main St, Farmingdale

Much like New York water directly affects the taste of our pizza and bagels, it also is a key ingredient in our beer. And since rocks and sediment are what filter New York’s distinctive water, what better than to name a brewery after the study of rocks and sediment — lithology. So there you have it, a nano brewery that is inspired by the terroir and people of Long Island. Be sure to try their Brown Ale (4.9% ABV), a silver medal winner of the 2016 New York International Craft Beer Competition.

Barrier Brewing Co. — 3001 New Street, Unit A2, Oceanside

These guys put the micro in microbrewery — specializing in small batches. In fact their first batches were brewed on a 1bbl system (2 kegs at a time)! After Superstorm Sandy took out their operation, they rebuilt and reopened in late February 2013 and now pour 50 different beers annually. Their tap room is open to the public Wednesday - Sunday.

Destination Unknown Beer Co. — 1 South Chicago Ave, Bay Shore

Only in its second year of operation, DubCo began as a small 1bbl brewery on the border of Bay Shore and Islip. Since then, it has grown to produce 12bbls a month in addition to a 600 square foot tasting room and 10 taps! Don’t miss out on their food truck Fridays. Oh, and it’s dog friendly!

Montauk Brewing Company — 62 S Erie Ave, Montauk

What started as a basement brewing operation between three friends, is now one of the most scenic craft breweries on LI — with outdoor seating, located just steps from the surf. So “come as you are,” and celebrate the no-frills good life at New York’s easternmost brewery!

Long Ireland Beer Co. — 817 Pulaski St, Riverhead

From their early days of learning how to home-brew to their apprenticeship with the New England Brewing Company — the brewers behind this Long Island brewery really turner their hobby and passion into a lifestyle. Their mission is simple: Make beer, share beer, drink beer.
