"Return Brewing was founded by former Sixpoint employees, and offers laidback vibes in an old Hudson tire repair shop. Their Polished Pilsner has become a local favorite in and around town as has the Westwhere West Coast IPA, which harkens back to the piney goodness of early craft beer days. If they have the Sword Lily Sour on tap or in a can, snag that one—you’re in for a tart treat. On the weekends, they have a rotating cast of food trucks set up to keep you nourished. And if you’re looking to make a whole day of it with a crawl, Union Street Brewing is just a five-minute walk away." - chanize thorpe, anne cruz, keith hernandez
