I'm drinking random beers that have been left in my fridge over the last month or so. Currently drinking a Murphy's Irish Stout. For the style, I prefer it to Guinness (not counting the Extra Stout, of course). Thoughts?

I really like this beer. It's probably the only Argentine beer I actually like.

Please Vegman, give him some quality recommendations. I informed him you would be the man to talk to.

Had a few Union Jacks and a Wookey Jack while in Saratoga Springs this weekend, it's indeed damn good stuff.

Some good breweries (sort of) nearby:

Captain Lawrence Brewing: The Captain's Reserve DIPA is really nice and theire most popular is the Freschester Pale Ale. They brew a ton of different styles. They're about 3 miles South of Lake George.

Ommegang Brewery is about 2 hrs. South and West of Lake George. They brew Belgian beer and anything you find is probably delicious. My favorites are the Belgian Pale Ale and the Hennepin Saison.


Lake Placid Brewing is about an hour and a half North of Lake George. I've only had their Ubu Ale which should be readily available and it's pretty good. I've heard their best beer is only available at the brewpub.

Ithaca Brewing- Not really that close but I love their beer. One of my favorite breweries and you should be able to find it easily in Lake George. The Flower Power DIPA is excellent, Their pumpkin beer, Country Pumpkin just came out and is usually good. Another favorite is their Caskazilla, a hoppy red ale. Really nice.

If you're looking for a local brewpub, there's the Adirondack Brewpub right in Lake George. The beer and food is good. I was there last year and really liked it.

Bottle shops are lacking in Lake George so stock up on the way up? For what it's worth, the drive up to Lake Placid is beautiful so maybe do a brewery trip??

Have a great trip man, the Adirondacks are my favorite part of NY State.
Hope this helped.
