SAND CITY
Nestled off Main Street in the scenic Village of Northport, head down a tiny alley and you’ll find one of Long Island’s best, little-known breweries.
I favor their IPAs, especially Fade to Jade, but their other beers hit it out of the park as well. The breakfast stout and Second Wave (a double IPA) both clock in at 8% and sit comfortably in my wheelhouse. They also offer Red Sand (and amber ale), and on the way, an oatmeal IPA called Day Drifter.
The tasting rooms gets packed so either come early or be a curmudgeon like me and head there during off-peak hours. They are one of the few tasting rooms that are open 7 days a week!
“Huzzah!” sez I as my liver gently weeps…
