Breweries in New York

Based on the breweries in the brewery.fyi register and their own websites, read September 2026.

New York is one of the biggest brewery states in the country, and beer stores make up more than a quarter of the list. Shopping for cans to take home is as much a part of the map as sitting in a taproom.

Brooklyn leads, with Manhattan, Buffalo and Rochester next. Even so, the top three cities hold under a fifth of the list, and the rest spread across hundreds of cities and towns. Where size is known, most are microbreweries and about a quarter are brewpubs.

Other Half Brewing Company in Brooklyn is known for hazy IPAs and pastry stouts. Threes Brewing in Gowanus is a brewery and coffee shop by day and a music venue by night. In Buffalo, Resurgence Brewing Company fills a restored building once used by a maker of wooden barrels.

Planning a brewery trip in New York

Brooklyn makes the easiest base, and Manhattan and Queens add plenty of stops of their own. Fifth Hammer Brewing Company in Long Island City is one subway stop from Midtown Manhattan.

Buffalo and Rochester each have a strong group worth a trip. Beyond the big cities the breweries sit in many separate towns, so plan each stop before you drive.

Every brewery page on brewery.fyi has hours, a map and what to know before you go. Check it on the day, since taproom hours can change.
