16 Best Craft Breweries near Halfmoon

“Excellent place with fantastic staff. They really take care of you and have a strong sense of customer service. All of the beers I tried were excellent and the space is clean and well thought out. I know where I’ll be going from now on. Cheers!“

“So much to say! Hank Hudson had secretly become a destination for me. The golf course has always been great and the restaurant as well, but Hanks is now at a different level. The outdoor patio is covered, so you can enjoy some food while enjoying the views. The new pavilion is spacious, clean and inviting. The food is simply fantastic. It may be the best fried chicken sandwich I’ve ever had not to mention the waffle fries. I’m a bit of a pizza snob, but I was thoroughly impressed with the crust and the pie overall. The ambience is fantastic and the servers are super friendly. With all that said, that’s not even the best part, the beer is fantastic. Always a nice selection not to mention the local aspect. I will be back!“

“Has such good vibes. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Dog friendly and great beer and seltzer selection. Also a great place for private party’s or even just a quick get together with friends. My favorite is the blackberry gose and any of the hard infusions! I had to take some seltzers home for everyone to try. They were gone quick!“

“This place is great. Excellent food and great service. Not over priced but not cheap. They really did a great job with eat in the street. Too bad Cohoes limited that so much because it was a great thing for Cohoes restaurants. Definitely my go to on Remsen St.“

“Best drinks!!! Their old fashions are the best in the region!!“

“Speckled Pig Brewing is the place to go for a hangout or an event! I've gone several times for a regular outing but I reserved the first floor for a birthday and, boy, they went ALL OUT. The staff was remarkable, the food and drinks were delicious, the decorations were on point and they really think of every little detail. Would recommend to anyone for anything! 20/10 ⭐️“

“Singlecut has hosted a few events for us and they have always been so accommodating and kind! Their venue is fun and welcoming and their beers are incredible! we can't recommend them enough! if you haven't already, go give them a try!“

“A really pleasant night out. Good people, great conversation.“

“With so many breweries popping up in the capital district and so many choices I still keep coming back to unified! Their beer is second to none with top notch ingredients and sours that would appeal to any beer or non beer drinker! The staff are the best and the owners are the nicest people I know! Be sure to catch their music acts and trivia nights on Thursdays!!! Keep it up guys!! ??“

“Yesfolk is so good and a bonus of the Kombucha is that it is super helpful for people that want to live a sober lifestyle. Settling down with a kombucha is so much better than a beer or cocktail for me. I'm hooked on Yesfolk Kombucha!“

“Delightful local brewery in Troy, Ny.

The beers are spot on and the staff are great.
You can drink there or grab some to go but no matter you are getting some good beers to enjoy.

They were pup friendly when we visited and even had a fun side hall with retro games. Check out their calendar for special events.“

“Enjoyed the Troy Pub Ale. It was a good example of the older American IPA style (i.e. no crazy monkey hops or haze, not that there's anything wrong with that).

I had the Salmon BLT, which was great. Salmon was a little overcooked, but entirely serviceable and delicious despite.

We showed up as a 20-top. Service was top notch, especially for our large group.“

“Place was dead when it first opened at 12 on a Saturday, but I can imagine that it gets quite lively later in the day/night. There was a good variety of beers. Personally, I'm a sour girlie and appreciate any Gose or Sour beer that I can find so I was pleasantly surprised that there were actually 2 on the menu for me to try. Friendly staff, too, and some entertainment on the TV. You can bring your own food. Parking was a bit of a hassle, but maybe there's some spot nearby we didn't know of that would have been better than street parking“

“This venue is like no other in Troy. Highly recommend. Stop in during a night of live music. Always a unique vibe enjoyed by all. Friendly staff, great ambiance and great cocktails.“

“Went here tonight with my 2 young daughters. Unbeknownst to us the ticketing service for meals had an issue which resulted in delays. Staff were super accommodating when we approached them and food was quickly brought out after that. Beer was excellent and combined with the amazing staff we will certainly be back.“

“I completely forgot to take a picture and demolished my food! I totally get why the Beer Cheese and Pretzels is a popular dish. It was absolutely amazing. We came here for a birthday celebration and I would definitely come back again. The Pork Belly Tacos were delicious as well! They also have a wide variety of drinks! Totally recommend!!

Vegetarian options: There were vegetarian options!

Kid-friendliness: I saw many children there!“
