"The Evolution of Craft Beer on Long Island"

Long Island's craft beer scene has emerged in the past few years as one of the most vibrant in the country, with
award-winning breweries, top-notch brewpubs and beer bars, an active homebrewing community and numerous festivals.

We thought it was time to have a website dedicated to helping people find and enjoy great beer on Long Island, with
guides to breweries, brewpubs, beer bars, restaurants that respect beer, event listings and other useful info.
