CRAFT BREWERIES
Ray Brook Brewhouse
Our first stop (at mile 6.5) features a quick jaunt off of the Adirondack Rail Trail into the hamlet of Ray Brook for a stop at Ray Brook Brewhouse. The Brewhouse is a unique brewery producing wild and traditional brews, paired with equally adventurous dishes using both local and exotic ingredients in a rustic and homey space.
RiverTrail Beerworks
This riverfront brewpub features twelve house beers on tap. For those non-beer drinkers, RiverTrail Beerworks offer a full bar with wine, liquor, prosecco, and ciders. And with a large, heated, screened-in patio, two firepits right on the river, and lots of Adirondack chairs to sit outside, there's plenty of room to relax after the ride.
Big Slide Brewery & Public House
This modern brewery features a hybrid 3.5/5 barrel brew-house right in the center of our space, concrete-topped bar, a comfortable dining room, a beautiful (dog-friendly) patio, and a semi-open kitchen. Plus Big Slide Brewery & Public House has 10 house beers on tap, with a wide variety of styles from Sours and Goldens to Pale Ales, IPAs, Porters, Stouts, and Belgian beers.
