“We had a fantastic experience at Zeus Brewing while visiting from out of town. Maria, our server, was absolutely AWESOME —she picked the perfect beer flight for me, and everything she suggested was spot on. The Reuben burger was absolutely delicious, and I can't stop thinking about the peach and basil beer—it was such a unique and refreshing flavor. The hostess also gave us great recommendations for things to do while we’re in town. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area!“

“Obercreek Brewing Company!

Isthere honestly anything this place can’t do? Every time I come here, I leave more impressed than the last.

I already shop weekly at their local farm stand, which is phenomenal on its own and something I highly recommend to anyone in the Hudson Valley, but the brewery experience itself is on another level. The current atmosphere is already beautiful, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed, and hearing about the new location being built on the farm makes it even more exciting. From what I’ve seen and heard, it looks elegant, ambitious, and truly impressive while still keeping that authentic Hudson Valley charm.

The beer selection is outstanding with constantly rotating options that are always fresh, creative, and perfectly brewed. Whether you’re deep into craft beer or just looking for something enjoyable in a great setting, Obercreek delivers every single time. The indoor and outdoor seating both have amazing appeal, and when there’s live music, the whole place comes alive in such a fun and relaxing way.

And then there’s NightShed Pizza. Cameron and the team are absolutely crushing it. The pizzas are made with incredibly fresh, high-quality ingredients that genuinely elevate every bite. You can taste the care and craftsmanship behind the food. One piece of advice, order quickly because it sells out fast for a reason. The demand speaks for itself.

This place is more than just a brewery, oh no no, it’s a full Hudson Valley experience. Whether you live locally or you’re visiting the area and want somewhere that captures the beauty, flavor, and community feel of the region, Obercreek is absolutely worth the trip. It’s also easy to see why this would be an incredible venue for weddings, gatherings, and special events. Truly one of the gems of the Hudson Valley.“

“Went for a tour and tasting and everything was fabulous, from the space itself to the tour guide, the facility, the attention to detail, the information, and, maybe most importantly, the sakes. Clean, smooth, absolutely delicious. I am a convert to sake and understand why Dassai has such an outstanding reputation. ⭐️“

“Working with Bad Seed Cider for our wedding was hands-down the best decision we made. The venue itself is absolutely stunning, and our guests haven’t stopped raving about how beautiful the spot is.

s a pretty laidback couple, we were so grateful for how attentive and accommodating the team was. They completely took the stress out of the day, making sure we had absolutely everything we needed while keeping us on track so we didn’t forget a single detail. They truly went above and beyond for us.

And of course, we have to mention the drinks… they were absolutely INCREDIBLE! If you want a gorgeous venue with an amazing team and fantastic drinks, look no further. We couldn't have asked for a better experience“
