Abandon Brewing Company (Craft Beer & Brewery in Penn Yan NY)

Abandon Brewing Company sits in a refurbished 1800s barn on the Finger Lakes, Penn Yan, New York, and decides that the only thing more thrilling than a good brew is sourcing every hop and grain from within a 50‑mile radius. The result is a line‑up that could make a seasoned sommelier blush: British porters dark enough to hide a secret, crisp German lagers that could double as a cool breeze, and Belgian ales as aromatic as a perfume shop. Taps rotate faster than a politician’s promises, and the beer list is as abundant as a summer market.

Beyond the liquid gold, Abandon throws in live music, yoga sessions, and even a venue for brides who want their vows surrounded by gardens and vineyards (the sort of backdrop that would make a postcard jealous). Their root beer claims the state’s crown, while the food menu offers whipped ricotta paired with homemade naan – a daring yet oddly comforting match. Add a selection of local wines and ciders, and you’ve got a place where craftsmanship is shouted from the rafters without ever sounding pretentious.
