The IPAs I sipped were refreshing, but my personal focus was on the Black Forest Cake Stout, simply because I'd not had something of this flavor before (the cherry flavor was there). Conversation with the staff was enjoyable and informative as well. It's pretty quiet there in the opening hours of the afternoon, though there was a constant flow of customers coming in for growler refills.

Real McCoy is a new entrant into the craft beer scene. Located a block off Front street in a yellow…read morehouse where baseball inventor Abner Doubleday was born, it feels like a quaint throwback to ye olde colonial tavern. There's a small bar on the left and several tables among several small rooms. Plus, there's seating outdoors in the small yard. The beer is good. There's a variety of styles including NE IPAs, Pilsners, Stouts and ESB. The few I've tried hit those styles down the middle and drove in a few funs. The downside is the price. My 4pack takeaway of pint cans was $20, so puts it on the high end of craft beer costs. Although, they did include a token for a free beer in house. If you stay and drink, it's $7/per so more readable compared to other bars. I'd like to come back and try the rest of their lineup to perhaps find one that hits it out of the park!

It's in a great location in…read moredowntown Ballston Spa and is located in the historic Abner Doubleday House, which gives it a unique feeling compared to most brewery taprooms since they've stuck with the old decor and furniture. We've come a couple of times and the guy behind the bar has always been enthusiastic and friendly. Unfortunately, there's no kitchen for food and the beer is just okay. I'd suggest sticking with more classic styles like the cream ale, ESB, etc. I have tried a couple of their IPAs and NEIPAs and several seem to have been oxidized or of lower quality than most other breweries in the area. There are a few benches and chairs outside in the front and side yards to sit at, and those outdoor spots are dog-friendly. I think it's location makes it an ideal place to stop in for a beer before going out to dinner somewhere else nearby.

Great spot for good brews! I've been to Active Ingredient…read moreseveral times and they always have a great draft list, including a few ciders as well as a list of wines and cocktails. Most recently, I tried their Pumpkin Pi beer (most of the beers have scientific names due to the owner's science background) and it was delicious. I've never had their food but they do offer a large menu of appetizers, tacos, sandwiches and salads. The atmosphere is great and there is plenty of seating at the bar and at the indoor and outdoor tables. The bartenders are always friendly and eager to help customers. They'll also let you try things before you commit to a drink. Definitely worth a stop!

Then things changed again and my favorite drink was removed and the food was once again sub-par. I am going to a meet up here soon and I hope that things have changed for the better once more.

The skivy: if you are passing through and like to spend $ stop in and enjoy. However, should you be "semi" local and not a FULL LOCAL...skip going back unless you like rude to the "outsiders" service. Left @ 9:58 after being "cut off" after 2 drinks. Everybody else at the bar were on at least three and driving home...in cars. You do the math. Maybe just me but NOT my kind of place.

Typical brewery setup with an inviting outdoor area, and ample indoor seating space with TV's near the bar to enjoy live sports and good beer! Our table tried a few of their beers, Saratgoa Vibes being the favorite. Food order consisted a pretty cheesy Buffalo Chicken Dip ($17), Parmesan and Rosemary House Fries ($12), and Mexican Street Corn Dip ($16). Nashville Hot Chicken & Pickle ($23) was a good portion of pizza to share amongst 4 adults. Grilled Veggie ($17) on their house baguette lacked seasoning. They were just grilled veggies and the chimichurri couldn't add much taste to it. Can definitely use improvement. Service was spectacular all throughout and food arrived within 15-mins of placing the order! Highly recommend this place for comfort food, live sports, and of course - Beer!
