The 11 Best Breweries In The Hudson Valley & The Catskills 2024 - Hudson Valley - The Infatuation

"Spread out on an old hop house farm in Schoharie, Wayward Lane seemingly came out of nowhere when they won the New York Brewery of the Year award in 2023. How did they pull it off? By brewing consistent hit after hit, with crowd favorites plus some more experimental styles. You can pull up to the taproom and enjoy a crisp, easy-drinking pilsner like Sanson or Foment or one of their many hazy IPAs, while also expanding your palate with a 12% stout called Hunk or a berliner sour like Merlin in Berlin. The taproom is usually playing ‘90s hip hop, so if that’s not your style, venture out to explore the farmland or sit in the barn where you can sometimes catch a local band. Wherever you land, definitely get some fried dumplings from the food truck before they sell out." - keith hernandez

Absolutely fantastic beer, vibes and customer service! This is a wonderful family friendly spot. It's quiet and relaxing. The beer is top notch, every single one that I had. I highly recommend Wayward Lane Brewing!

Wayward Brewery is truly a treasure. The beer selection is amazing and always changing so that you can try out different styles. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable and can answer your questions about the beer selection. The dumpling truck (a permanent fixture) has some of the best dumplings you can find. The team does a great job of bringing unique vendors, bands, and entertainment to the brewery (we’ve been to their summer farmer’s market, winter after Christmas tree burning party, and the band accompanied screening of the silent movie Nosferatu)! Dog and kid friendly as well! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fun, friendly, fantastic beer! A great community place - I only wish they were closer to my house! Oh, and the Dumpling Wagon if fabulous too!

Delicious quality lagers, beautiful site in the countryside and very friendly staff. The food truck there (dumplings) was spectacular. I purchased a barley wine, looking forward to trying the barrel aged offerings! Beer served on keg, side pours, and cask.

My wife and I enjoyed a couple beers and relaxed on one of the many picnic tables available. They also have a barn with additional tables so there's plenty of room. I had the "Here on Out," a hazy IPA that was delicious. I bought a four-pack to bring home. They also had a food truck and we got an order of Lo Lo Beef dumplings (6 dumplings for $9), which were excellent. Very relaxing atmosphere. We even enjoyed watching some chickens and roosters running around.

Excellent brews, and very tolerant of wild boy toddlers. The Dumpling Wagon outside has AMAZING food which goes great with the quality beers. Fantastic country atmosphere. We needed veggie friendly food after Howe Caverns and couldn't have made a better choice. They even have a dog bed and water bowl, so I'm guessing they're dog friendly too. We will CERTAINLY go out of our way to visit again the next time we're anywhere close to this area.

It's a little out of the way, but it's definitely worth the drive to get here (be careful right after snow). The space is comfortable, and everyone is quite friendly here. The brewery's dog may come over and nap at your feet for a while. The beers we had hit all the right notes. I loved the music they play here, this afternoon it was a just released album from an artist new to me In warmer weather, you have space outside too. I can only imagine how beautiful the area is during peak foliage.

Wayward Lane brewing is a great experience. They always have solid beers. I'm pretty sure they won a lot of awards at the NYS craft brew competition. The staff is always friendly. The location is absolutely beautiful. Schoharie is only 30 minutes outside of Schenectady.

One of our top capital region breweries to visit that checks all the boxes. It's a beautiful spot, a little bit of a drive from Albany, but worth it! Seating inside or outside depending on the weather, either way you'll get a view of the chicken neighbors running around. They're great entertainment! The beer is awesome and the variety will please everyone. We especially love how they elevate lighter beers making them shine where people often take them for granted. The service is always friendly and helpful. You won't be disappointed and you'll see why they have won awards!

One of the best breweries! Some of the best beer I've had in NY just amazing talented brewers. Small tasting room with light snacks, olives, and lite fare. There is a bee display on the wall which was really cool. Definitely a must stop if your in the area. Cheers

Have heard great things about Wayward since their opening. Finally made the drive to check it out ourselves. The taproom wqs delightful even on a rainy February Saturday. The reasonable ABVs and available half-pint pours enable us to try a majority of the styles on tap. All were absolutely top-notch. Beers were inventive and flawlessly brewed. The Kia Era (New Zealand Pilsner) was a favorite. The bias toward using local ingredients (like Hop House Honey in the Multiflora: Late Harvest) contributed to their overall appeal. To throw a cherry on top - the service was unfailingly friendly and efficient. A great stop-off and well worth the short drive from Albany. Can't wait to go back.

Good beers and a beautiful location. A great place to spend a couple hours on a summer afternoon. Family friendly and the baby had fun chasing around the chickens.

My new go-to beers 100%. I'm not super beer savvy, but these guys have opened my eyes to some tasty goodness and taught me so much about all things beer! Super cool guys, very fun to talk to. This place is an amazing hang out spot. Crack a beer, play some disc golf, hang out in the meadow, have a picnic, grab a tasty treat from the food truck... What else could you ask for?! My new favorite place! I absolutely cannot wait to try their spontaneously fermented beer

Hands down my new favorite brewery! The staff was so passionate about their product which comes through in the quality of their beer and the service was excellent. The vibe/atmosphere in the taproom were incredible then you step outside with a beer and enjoy the fresh open air on their family run farm. I highly recommend this brewery and I will definitely be back!

Going to a brewery is always fun, but to be at an awesome historic farm property enjoying some tasty drinks really makes Wayward Lane stand out. The beer is next level and there is always something intriguing to taste. Talking to the friendly and knowledgeable owners make you understand their passion for creating quality beer in an awesome outdoor setting!

Umm this place is beautiful- a lovely rural getaway if you're looking for one. As far as the beer is concerned, they have an impressive variety of styles, and you can tell this beer is made with love and precision - arguably some of the best brew in New York State. The staff there are so nice, and there's a very laid back, easygoing vibe to the place. All in all, it's a great spot to bring friends, family and a significant other. Would highly recommend!
