Best Breweries in the Finger Lakes for a Pint
With so many breweries in the Finger Lakes region, this list will focus on the businesses surrounding Cayuga Lake and those within 30 minutes of our Bed and Breakfast. You’ll love exploring the delicious tap beers, exciting menu options, and beautiful scenery along the way.
Here are our top six breweries in the Finger Lakes to discover on your next beer tasting adventure:
- Garret’s Brewing Co: This is one of the closest breweries in the Finger Lakes to our Inn. In fact, it’s within walking distance in downtown Trumansburg—head here for hoppy brews on draft and live music from local performers on the weekends.
- Finger Lakes Cider House: Located at the organic Good Life Farm in Interlaken, NY, you can indulge in artisan ciders made from locally grown apples in the tasting room. These bubbly ciders pair perfectly with the cheese and charcuterie plates and seasonal treats.
- Buried Acorn FLX Taproom: Grab a pint and find a spot in the converted 4,200 square foot greenhouse turned barrel room and brewpub. The food menu includes pizza squares with hand-pulled mozzarella made on-site. Be sure to try the most popular pour: the Porter Hill Porter.
- Ithaca Beer Co. This Finger Lakes brewery is situated on a farm between two fantastic New York State Parks, making it a perfect post-hike spot for an IPA and a farm-fresh lunch. Find a cozy place on the large outdoor patio with heaters and fire pits.
- Liquid State Brewing: Visitors and locals alike flock to this local brewpub for its outdoor heated patio, rotating food trucks, and barrel room. Enjoy on-site brewed beers, including IPAs, Germans, Belgiums, sours, and more.
- Salt Point Brewing Co.: While you’ll find a fantastic flagship IPA, Saison, and stout here in Lansing, NY, it’s the wood-fired pizzas that bring the crowds. Go for the beer flight of four six-ounce pours for eight dollars and a perfectly charred classic Margherita pie.
