When you’re driving down Saw Mill River Road, you’ll need to keep an eye out for the Captain Lawrence sign or you might miss it. Drive around the back, park, then head up to the brewery for a good time. Before you enter you’ll notice there’s a super fun outdoor area with a bocce ball court and picnic tables where you can sip, eat, and relax. We had already decided this was just the best damn brewery ever before we even entered. It only got better from there, though.
Inside you’ll find a huge tasting room with a few tables here and there (some are barrels) where people were playing cards, a line for filling up growlers, a line for purchasing beer, lines for tastings, and a line for food orders. Yes, there’s food too. Heck yeah! We had the choice of a meat & cheese plate, Taim hummus trio, Tierra Farms nut bowl, Slant Shack NY jerky, or marinated olive bowl. We went with the hummus: roasted red pepper, basil, and truffle. All three were delicious and went well with all of the beer we tasted.
