“I really like the ambiance of Active Ingredient, I can't wait till it's warmer to try their patio area. All of the bartenders were very nice. They had excellent beers, along with some wine and cocktails for the non-beer drinkers. My husband loved their Amber, and I loved their Freudian Sips, which was a honey Kolsch. Both of their sours had a nice taste as well as their Oryza, which is a Japanese Rice lager. The food was good as well. We got the pretzel as an appetizer, it was nice and buttery. I wish there was just a touch more seasoning . My husband got their Nashville hot chicken sandwich, he didn't offer to share so that speaks for itself. I got their special burger which was a Mac and cheese burger. We both would definitely come again.“
“Visited this distillery as part of a birthday weekend celebration. The tour and tasting was super fun and very informative. Wish we lived closer so we could visit again as the bar area has a great vibe and would be a great place to spend a few hours on the weekend. Highly recommend the tour or just an afternoon/eve visit!“
“As the birthplace of Abner Doubleday it has a great backstory, right off the bat (pun intended). I think the beer is great and you can't beat the unique atmosphere. And, although I've only been there a handful of times, the owner remembered my name on my last visit which is impressive! I enjoy it whenever I have a chance to go, wish I was able to go more often. And once the ghost turned the overhead light off for us the moment we stood up to leave, so the living and the undead are all very accommodating.“

“Aside from anything else, I like this is one of the few indoor friendly dog options in the area. Most of the time I'm very happy to and even prefer sitting outside but it's nice to have the indoor option in cool, cold or rainy weather. Beers are good (with a huge selection) and there is a food truck permanently on premises that serves some good BBQ. The space is nice and they even have hooks on the tables for the dog leashes so you don't have to tie them up to the chair legs or table column. Little things like this are a nice touch for a dog owner who doesn't like to leave their dogs at home if it isn't absolutely necessary.“
“If I could leave more than 5 stars I would. I hosted a private event in there event space yesterday and I was blown away with the attention to detail and the personal attention we received the entire party. The owners of the Speckled Pig are truly some of the kindness people I have ever met. They made our party an enormous hit! I would highly recommend this event space to all who wish to have a stress free, every detail taken care of kind of party!!“
“This is my kind of place. Whether you're looking for a sunny outdoor patio, a cozy indoor reading book, a nice bar/brewery, or a mix of all the above - you will find it here.Good music indoors and out on the patio. Eccentric decor with a variety of places to sprawl out. Perfect for a sunny, breezy Saturday afternoon. Staff were all friendly and efficient. Food is amazing. My wife and I got the Detroit style "I need a margarita" pizza and some Korean bbq wings. The pizza was immaculate and the wings were a fun change up from what were used to. Drinks were strong and made with care.If we weren't moving in a month, we'd be spending a lot more time here. Hoping to get a chance to lounge in the cafe sometime before we move downstate!“
“Beautiful brewery, fun beer selection and - holy crow - some of the best cheese curds we’ve discovered on our many adventures.The staff was super friendly and loved sharing some history of the place (as well as some fun stories about trips to Montreal back in the day). My teacher boyfriend was so excited to check out the brewery since it was started by former teachers. Very special for him.We had a great time and would highly recommend!“
“Really good beer! A great find! Atmosphere is laid back, lots of seating inside and outside. The guy at the counter is very serious and could use some humor or more of a welcoming attitude but maybe it’s bec I’m visiting from the south. Either way I loved having their beer! And they don’t charge you for stickers which I always appreciate!“
“Solid brewery with some interesting pours. Tried the what's up doc sour and the hazy ipa and both were great. The broccoli cheddar soup and kimchi brussels sprouts were hearty and full of flavor. Will definitely be coming back next time we are in Saratoga “
“Gabby and Dez were amazing on bar- super attentive and the BEST cocktails! The wings are crispy and juicy…cooked to perfection with tasty sauces! The gobbler was awesome but way too big- sourdough slices would have been perfect. My husband enjoyed the burger.“
“Location is a little weird but from there it just gets better. Nice indoor space with open air in the warmer months. Outdoor dog friendly seating area (though it's not covered and exposed to the rain/sun). Fortunately the day we went it stopped raining after we did a hike with the dogs and the bartender offered to set us up a table so we could bring the dogs out of the car. They do offer food and it seems like they might be experimenting a bit with the menu. Tacos were OK. Not bad, but considering we just ate very good authentic Mexican tacos in Clifton Park the day before it might be unfair to judge them. Great selection of beers and looking at the brewers (owners) it seems they have totally different taste and that is why there is such a high-quality offering of vastly different beers. The person I was with ordered opposite spectrum beers as me, so we got a good feel. They also have ciders which is great for your non beer drinking friends/family.“
