A small farm brewery on a sixth-generation family farm in upstate Nassau, Rensselaer County — the farm has been in the family since the 1800s and was a dedicated dairy operation milking Holstein cows into the late 1990s. Now reborn as a NY State Farm Brewery using its own field-grown crops alongside ingredients from local farms, all grown organically. The original brewhouse was built in the farm's former milk house and has since expanded into the dairy barns for production and the taproom. Beers include Old 82 (a pre-Prohibition-style golden ale named after the family's combine harvester), Hive Jive Brown (honey brown ale), Mosaic IPA, Brown Chicken Brown Ale, plus a Pilsner brewed with NY-grown Cascade and Zeus hops. Open Friday evenings with extended summer hours, food trucks on-site, live music, and a playground for families.
