Opened by a third-generation apple farmer, this 55-acre orchard and artisan cidery is one of the most celebrated in the country, turning out several year-round sippers, including a semisweet cherry and crisp dry-hopped apple variety, along with numerous seasonal varieties. Try a sampler at the tasting room, which also has a big outdoor patio, bocce ball court, and an outdoor stage featuring live music.

There's nothing like a cold brew on a hot summer's day—or, come to think of it, any day of the year. Here you can enjoy your suds in the cool, navy-blue, industrial-style tasting room or, from April to October, out on the patio. The knowledgeable staff can guide you through the selection of the offerings brewed on-site, whether you want to sample several 4-ounce servings in a flight, enjoy one full pour at a time, or buy your beer to go. You can also choose from a selection of locally made snacks, or bring your own food.

A craft brewery with a social mission, Triple Bottom strives to be a positive community partner. They pour lagers, pale ales, IPAs, and seasonal and special releases. Happy hour is offered Wednesday through Friday and Sunday, 3--6 pm, and there are trivia nights and drag shows.

Easily the fastest growing brewery in the region, Urban South sells its Holy Roller IPA (a juicy New England–style) and the extremely popular Paradise Park lager (a light beer adored for its colorful can design) all over town. Stop by the large warehouse taproom for more playful and interesting specials, with everything from triple and grapefruit IPAs to Juvie Juice, a hard iced tea collaboration with Rapper Juvenile. Keep an eye out for crawfish pop-ups during spring.

Yards is the oldest continuously operating craft brewer in the city, and runs a sprawling brewery and taproom. Guided tours ($10, 40 minutes) are offered daily for those 21 and over and include a beer sample, a full “walk-about” beer, and a souvenir. The bar features 20 taps of their signature beers—Loyal Lager, Philadelphia Pale Ale, Love Stout, to name a few—as well as limited releases only available in the taproom. The kitchen includes classic pub fare as well as Philly favorites like the Yards IPA Pretzel and cheesesteak egg rolls.

What started as a single tap in a pizza restaurant has turned into one of Burlington’s most successful and hippest breweries, thanks to frothy gems like Conehead and Green State Lager. Its shiny brewery in the South End Arts District is always buzzing—starting first thing in the morning with coffee and amazingly crispy, tender waffles flavored with brown butter, sea salt, and, of course, Vermont maple syrup. And yes, you can get a beer with that. Tasty complements continue throughout the day, with items like bratwurst, crispy cheddar curds, and foodie-friendly bistro bites, paired with Zero Gravity's popular favorites or taproom-only offerings, like bottle-conditioned brews and unusual co-ferments. Sink into the cozy couches in front of the fireplace, or watch the brewers at work through large windows behind one of the two bars.
