Beautiful property, delicious farm fresh beer, and a perfect wedding venue with staff that can handle anything. Highly recommend.

Nice cozy brewery hidden away at a farm. I went during the winter and I can imagine how this place is in the summer.The bar is nice and cozy. Very woodsy. For appetizers, there is a small offering of cheeses, cold cuts, crouton bread, and pop corn. You can bring or order your own food.Beer:Star of the show. My favorite beers were the pickle and hot pepper beer. Both were unique and very good. A-lot of the other beers did not have enough pow to make it memorable like these.Overall, this was a great experience for a farm to brewery setting. I brought my wife who doesn't drink so next time bring friends that do :)

This beer is a must have if you are remotely close. Most unique but absolutely the most delicious beer I’ve ever tasted. Awesome location, dog friendly, and great atmosphere. Pretty sure the owner was pouring beers when we were there, and that’s awesome! So interesting hearing about the farm. If you like beer or wine there’s something here you’ll love.

Among the slate of breweries that have popped up the last several years in NYS, Plan Bee stands out as special. I've been to a crapton of breweries, locally as well as across the country, and I've yet to find beer quite like here. Like sours? You better. While some blend the borders, everything they make here could be classified under that style thanks to the yeast they harvest off the honeybees on the property to make their beer. That's on top of all their ingredients being grown on property or on an adjacent farm. Translation: this is next level commitment.The property itself is beautiful. I had come years ago and they've built it up nicely with a ton of seating and a beautiful taproom space without losing the remote character. You would not guess this is 5min from downtown Poughkeepsie from the pics and the feeling in person is the same. Literally saw a bald eagle in the distance this past visit. It's tranquil as fuck. The beer is priced well for this type of place. Not everyone will appreciate it, however some who don't like beer normally may love this; my best friend hated beer his whole life, and this place broke him of that. Service is about as friendly and knowledgeable as it gets, given that the husband/wife team that runs the place are typically the ones serving you.My friends and I do a yearly brewery tour upstate, and this has been a consistent staple of that. This past visit the Cellar Beer, Breakfast and Morello were the winners for me. Hope they never change.

Awesome spot, dog friendly.

Great place! Very natural, family-owned vibe. Beers I tried are all on the sour, funky side from the natural yeast. Everyone was friendly and the place was beautiful.

The cosiest barn bar, delicious beer, lovely people, great music, goats! And all just a lovely train ride up the Hudson River Line from NYC. A day trip that feels like a vacation. Would also be the perfect spot for a relaxed and easy wedding ❤️❤️❤️
Great spontaneously fermented beers. Especially enjoyed the 3% abv garden beer which was surprisingly complex and refreshing. You can meet some farm animals too ??
Too many excellent-sounding beers to try at once, but the ones we had lived up to the expectations I’ve created over the years. Evan was so gracious, the beers so well balanced, and the food + merch + entire space are definitely worth checking out!

Great craft brewery. Found this place on Yelp while looking for places to checkout in Poughkeepsie. This place is cozy and homey. I got the Cellar Beer, which wasn't on the menu, but it is their house lager. It was phenomenal. They also had a pickle juice beer and a Carolina Reaper beer too. Both tasted great.The bartender was super friendly and taught us about the farm and apiary.

Amazing beer and even better service. Evan was fantastic and we can't wait to come back.

A true hidden gem. A nice place, with a nice atmosphere. I liked the window into the brewery from the tap room. Recommended to any beer lover. Go have some fun
