Southern Tier Brewing Company

The worst double IPA I’ve ever had… so far behind Treehouse, Fidens, and. Druthers it’s not even comparable. Sadly they’ve become a second tier brewery It’s rancid orange and too heavy on the alcohol, can’t believe they released it.

Quality control issue. Different quantities in the beer bottles. I get it's probably only ounce difference but you figure if you skimp an ounce on 10,000 beers, that will add up to a nice increase in profit margin. I do in fact like your beers, this just annoyed me.

Had a beautiful mess, up I'm the tasting room. An old man winter for me, and a chardonnay for my bride. Always a good time. Try the beautiful mess next time you're in. Goes good with a brew.

Impressive building, and the outside entertainment obviously looks to be a blast. But on a cold and rainy late October evening, we just did some tastings. Great atmosphere, friendly and knowledgeable staff and clean restrooms. Food was average brewery fare, with a heavy hand of mustard sauce on the smashburger. Still tasty enough grub.

Lovely brewery, it was very crowded with few seats available. Had to wait a bit before a table opened up but it didn't take too long. We were disappointed that they didn't have the cinnamon sugar rim available for their Pumpking beer, that I LOVE. The bartender was kind of condescending when we asked for it. Acted like we were disgracing their beer by wanting it. I get it.but if that's what we like, then that's what we like. We ordered burgers and they were delicious friends got nachos, also very good but the ratio of chips to toppings was off. Huge pile of chips that were naked by the time you get 1/2 way thru. Overall a great place to visit and these discrepancies aren't a "make or break" deal. Go check them out!

Cold Brew Coffee Pumking Nitro: This is one of the most unique pumpkin beers I've stumbled across. Southern Tier takes an imperial pumpkin ale and blends it nicely with natural coffee flavors. There's a welcoming amount of sweetness to it and detectable flavors are spice, vanilla, pecans/nuts, and of course pumpkin & coffee (both of which play a role in the fermentation process). The beer has a copper color and hazy appearance. It's ABV is a heavy 8.6% and it has an IBU of 30. Along with the flavor I was also a fan of the creamy feel it had on the palate. Unless you have an aversion to pumpkin or coffee then I highly recommend giving this ale a try. It's one of the best in my book and is Doughboy approved
My favorite Pumpkin Beers:
1. Southern Tier Pumking Imperial Ale
2. Saint Arnold Pumpkinator Imperial Stout
3. New Belgium Pumpkick Ale
4. Cold Brew Coffee Pumking Nitro
5. Jack-O Traveler Pumpkin Shandy

Delicious beer, great atmosphere, and the band we stumbled upon was fabulous. Great evening out!

The legendary Southern Tier! We made the pilgrimage from NH for a Niagara Falls weekend, and made the extra drive to Lakewood for a night. Loved the atmosphere of both the brewery and distillery, and of course the beer is as good as it's ever been. Great outdoor vibe with live music and really good food as well.

This brewery is 90% IPA selections, so if you aren't an IPA guy, then it isn't for you. The location, building, parking, staff, and seating were all really nice. There isn't staff that waits on you at your table, you have to do your own ordering at the bar. Overall it's an ok place, but if you aren't into IPAs, this isn't for you.

Nice outdoor patio area with live music and Southern Tier beer what more could you want. Southern Tier is one of my favorite beers.

Thanks for bringing Pumpkin Beer back to Buffalo Wegmans.nia.falls Blvd. Amherst.luv it.

Great dog friendly brewery with lots of options including specialty cocktails in cans. My favorite is the vodka madras. The wings are very good. Outside seating and live music. Fun!

Very popular and has a wide variety of beers. There was a live band when we visited. I liked the hazelnut beer.

Great vibes and a nice place to hangout! We were here in the winter and it had a cozy feel to it. I’m sure it’s just as nice in the summer!

Christine does a wonderful job highlighting the company itself and the various steps in brewing. The commentary of her tour offered a the right balance of humor and detailed for causal beer drinkers and connoisseurs alike. Highly recommend. They offer tours presently only on Saturday at 12: 30,1: 30,2: 30, and 3: 30. I drove five hours for it and would drive another five if needed.

Always a great time whether you're there for a couple beers or for food and drinks. Service is exceptional.
