A Guide to East End Breweries, Cideries & Distilleries

It’s easy to forget that Long Island Wine Country is also home to some of the best craft breweries, distilleries, and cideries in the entire state.

From Shelter Island to Montauk to Riverhead, the Twin Forks offers those looking for quality, small-batch refreshment plenty of options to choose from. The new “Kidd” on the block is Kidd Squid Brewing Company in Sag Harbor, where, according to their website, you’ll find “the best tasting beer ever to be made featuring a three-eyed squid.”

Even better, it’s located in a former 19th century rail road station just off Main Street in this charming — and walkable — historic whaling village.

Cheers!
