Brewing Co. Our first stop was Troy, where we had an excellent lunch at Brown's Brewing and when we went downstairs to pick up our keg, my 4 year old son, Henry, toured his first brewhouse: "Wow! What is this place? At Cooper's Cave they not only produce beer, they crank out ice cream, a laundry list of soda pop and operate a restaurant.
Brewing to pick up beer and have dinner. Rick runs a great place with a welcoming atmosphere. The service and the food were outstanding - not to mention the beer. Rick set us up with a couple of growlers red ale and brown ale and we headed back to the hotel to put the kids to sleep. Then my wife and I sipped Davidson Bros beers on our lake front balcony. The next morning we started heading back south and stopped off to see brewmaster Matt Perry at Chatham Brewing Co.
Matt a home brewer turned brewmaster is cranking out some great beer on a 3. According to Matt, there may be an expansion in the near future. So mark your calanders and stop by the Birdsall House to celebrate local beer and local food.
