Westhampton Beach Brewing Co.

OK, this brewery didn’t just open yesterday, it debuted a few years ago. But, considering the many regulatory hoops a local craft brewery needs to jump through to open makes it significantly more complicated than opening a restaurant, we would be remiss if we didn’t include these passionate purveyors of delicious beers on this list. 220 Roger’s Way, Suite I, Westhampton Beach. 631-98-0800, whbbrewing.com
