Adirondack Pub & Brewery
The Adirondack Pub is less than a mile from Surfside, offering easy access from your hotel room. This microbrewery uses fresh local ingredients and spring-fed water from the region. One of the most popular brews is Lake George’s IPA, which changes with the seasons of the Adirondacks. Other annual beers include amber ales, crisp Pilsners, porters, and sours.

Northway Brewing Co.
Head to Northway Brewing Co. in Queensbury and sample their collection of beers that celebrate the people and landscapes of the Adirondacks. Originally known as the Lake George Brew House, the Northway team has transformed the menu with new and exciting brews like mango milkshake IPAs and Streaking Embers made with smoked Pilsner malt.

Davidson Brothers Brewpub
