Lake Placid Brewery and Pub. Good brews and I had their ribs too and they were excellent." A Trout is just too damn valuable to be caught only once."

14 Mirror Lake Dr. I highly recommend the 46er IPA and the Ubu Ale. Don’t forget to pick up a Growler to bring home.A man needs to believe in something. I believe I'll go hiking.

It's all about the Ubu
Like they said above, go to the Pub and get an Ubu, you won't regret it
The "pub-grub" there is good too, I always get the fish and chips, yum."In short, a land ethic changes the role of Homo Sapiens from conqueror of the land-community to plain member and citizen of it. It implies respect for his fellow-members, and also respect for the community as such."

Alpine Cellar, 2830 Wilmington Rd., Lake Placid. Great German food and beers."The trail is what it is. If it goes up, over, under -- there is the choice to follow it or not. As for weather, it will be what it will be. One cannot choose conditions, only to hike or not to hike." AT Thru-HikerComment

Awesome. thx guys. I'm looking foreward to that 46er ipa next weekend i love hoppy beers. I'll try the ubu to! Keep it comming I would like to have a list of good pubs in the area for when i'm around.Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we are here we might as well dance.Comment

Lake Placid Pub and Brewery is tops IMO. If you like hoppy beers then you'll also like their Frostbite Ale, much more hop to it then the 46er. I enjoy the 46er, but haven't quite developed my taste for the Frostbite just yet! Ubu is still my favorite.
Also in Lake Placid, is the Adirondack Steak and Seafood Company. They also brew their own beers on site. It's been a while since I've been there, but last time I was there the beer was good. Especially enjoyed the Ausable Wulff Red. FWIW, their food is a little more pricey then the LPP&B, but there is a bar area if you just want to enjoy the beer. Oh, they're located right on Main Street on the left hand side, towards the far end of town.*************ENDLESS WINTER**************Comment

A little too sweet for me, but then I tried an ubu and WOW thats a good beer! thx for the recomendations, next is the frostbite!Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we are here we might as well dance.Comment

The Party Source on Erie Blvd (2646 Erie Blvd, East Syracuse) carries Ubu, if you want to pick some up locally. They carry 46er too, but it sounds like you won't want any more of that. I don't remember if they have any of the other Lake Placid beers there.Comment

Ubu's my favorite. So much so, that I got the recipe and now make it at home.
Years ago, they have a Winter 46er Ale. I think that is what is now their Frostbite ale.Last edited by Pete_Hickey; 12-09-2006, 06:18 PM.Senility is a terrible thing. I blame society. That and years of substance abuse.Comment

When you are in search of good beer, bit of homework helps...

Never knew what "46er" IPA actually meant when I first discovered this beer in South New Jersey... until I found this ADK Forum.
When ever I am hiking around ADK, I actually carry one bottle of micro brew in my back pack..specially reserved for that special place that I may find during my hike...
And of course..carry-in and carry-out....
It would be interesting to find out what the general public (non-ADK circle of beer drinkers) may think of the 46er IPA
