List of Long Island Brewers to Try on National IPA Day
National IPA Day is celebrated on the first Thursday of August each year. This year, it’s on August 1st. The day is a celebration of India Pale Ales (IPAs), one of the most popular styles of craft beer, and an opportunity to appreciate their complexity and craft. Below we put together a few Long Island breweries to enjoy their versions of an IPA today (and every day.)
