As another review said, "middle of nowhere". I will say that based on my drive through, Andes has a lot of potential, particularly because it's on the northern or top edge of the Catskills. But, to be frank, if you're coming from the Southern Tier, Central NY, or the Mohawk Valley, you have to drive through a whole lotta nuthin' to get here. And if you haven't figured it out by now, sometimes pictures (on social media) don't tell you the whole story. Weaver Hollow does a great job of self-promotion on social. Well, good on you, sez I. But here's the deets you don't really get from Instagrammy goodness: Everything is in a 750ML bottle. Period. Hmm. Did I accidentally time travel back to 1990? Well, OK, bottling lines cost money, so do canning lines, even using a "gypsy canner" (I didn't coin the term, don't hate on me) is an operational cost. So, I get it. But.... Can I get a glass pour? No, you must buy the bottle. Can I get a taster to decide if I want to buy your pricey, whimsically named beer du jour? No, you may not? Ah. Could I buy a bottle, drink a glass, and have it legally resealed for my road trip home? LOLOLOL. What state are you in, pal? Oh, and the hours of operation scream either trust fund baby or someone who works 3 real jobs, and this is just a side hustle. I just happened to have moon and stars align with the free time I had to make this road trip. If you have the time, and a drinking companion AND the two of you can knock of a 750ml and hit the road after in a safe and sober manner, then absolutely, give this place a try. If you're seeking a brewery experience that isn't locked in the bootstrap days of yore, then pass 'em by. You'll note I didn't rate the beer itself. Months later, at home, I decanted Tempo (a saison), and pronounced it good. Actually, a 4.0 on UnTappd, so yeah, very enjoyable. But the effort it took to experience their craft, on their terms, means I'm not repeating this trek anytime in the foreseeable future.

Fabulous and unique beer! Hidden gem tucked in the beautiful landscape of Andes NY. You will be able to enjoy your beverage looking at phenomenal landscape, usually with excellent music playing! The bartender is well versed in the beers and can lead you to your preferred flavor profile! Worth a stop!!

What a great spot in the middle of nowhere, Andes NY. We have been here when they first opened during the pandemic for to go sales, but this was the first opportunity to try stuff on site. WH makes great saisons, all pretty delicate, slightly tart. Definitely worth passing a visit if you're in the area

Under the radar up and coming wild ale brewery, hopefully the tap room will be open in the next couple of months!!
