Anyone heard of this?? http://www.tap-ny.com/about.htm looks like it might be right up "our alley"

 

Never done the "tap" thing....but, been plenty of times to Hunter Mtn. REAL nice country, actually, been there for German October Fest...lots of ..use to be great country roads, have not been for a few years. I'm not sure its close enough for a "day" trip? But definite possibility for an overnighter.

 

been to hunter mountain many times. My dad was a NYC cop and they had a policemans camp up there. Unfortunately I have a wedding that weekend.

Actually I have 4 weddings this summer, including my oldest daughter. It's going to be a busy, expensive summer!

 

I'll keep looking.... Right now, I'm busier than a one-armed paper-hanger....

 

Hey Dave good idea but we're not available that weekend.

 

Dave, It does sound like it would be a lot of fun but we're not available that weekend either - tis the season!!

 

some closer brewhouses

Granby and Bloomfield and of course hOOters(they have beer)

 

Steve; I'm beginning to think heading out your way makes more sense... Over the N.Y. line is too far for some of the "mid-staters" to do day trips... Just 'cause I like it over here, doesn't mean everyone should flock this way. Make a good list of brewpubs and we'll do it.

 

NY isn't too far. NYS run would be good ... just need a date that works.

 

Been to a brunch run here a couple years ago. Nice drive. We could take 199 over towards rhinebeck. Nice twisty road there.

There's a few other spots in rhinebeck/redhook/hyde park area, but we need to check out their parking first.

brew pub hopping in a 400 horsepower car makes me nervous,
The wife doesn't drink, but she refuses to drive my car!

 

Dave looks like a nice place good food,, and the road sounds fun. Any idea of date? Dave.

 

Dave, Set something up I'm in.

 

The Thomas Hooker brew is excellent!

 

23 kinds of sausage! My kind of menu.

Fine Food

The theme for 2009 is one we've visited before, but because of the great pairing with beer, and their easy "eatability" we decided to do it again... Sausages! The fine chefs at Hunter Mountain will be hand-stuffing all of these delicious sausages from fresh ingredients!
