Not sure how to organize your vacation in the Hudson Valley/Catskills? Why not try a local brewery tour? In fact, our friends at Voyageur Press just hipped us to a new book that dropped back in January entitled The Great Northeast Brewery Tour by Ben Keene. While it guides readers to all sorts of places on the east coast and mid-Atlantic region, we are particularly excited about the book’s mentions of a few in our neck of the woods, including:

Brewery Ommegang, Cooperstown, Otsego County

Crossroads Brewing Companies, Athens, Greene County

Captain Lawrence, Elmsford, Westchester County

Hopshire Farm & Brewery, Freeville, Tompkins County (it’s pretty far west, close to the Finger Lakes, but we’ll let it slide)

One of our faves, the Newburgh Brewing Company, isn’t mentioned in the book, but we feel it should be included in everyone’s Hudson Valley/Catskills brewery tour. We’d love to hear which ones are your, favorites, too. Which ones should’ve been included?
