Brewery Ommegang

Catskills


Owned by Belgium brewers Duvel, this top-notch brewery is a short drive south of Cooperstown's center. It takes its Trappist-style beer-making very seriously, turning out some 50 different brews a year, several of them World Beer Cup Championship winners. The brewery tour (daily until 5:30pm) is followed by a tasting of six ales.

There's a cafe here, too. Check out the homepage for details of the summer outdoor concert series featuring the likes of Bonnie Raitt and Wilco.
