Fairport Brewing Company

Fairport Brewing Company, the first New York State farm brewery in Monroe County, is proud to offer our artisan, hand-crafted approach to brewing the highest quality beer using only the best ingredients.
Fairport Brewing Company brews more then 30 beer styles annually. Many of our craft beers have been recognized with the highest honors at the World Beer Championships. Seventeen rotating varieties and other beverages are always available in our Tap Room to meet the discerning tastes of craft beer aficionados.
Just as many of our brews honor the heritage and preserve the spirit of our local community – Fairport, New York – our commitment to local extends to the use of New York State ingredients in the beer we brew.
The best place to get the full experience of our hand-crafted beers is enjoying them in our Tap Room – serving tastings, pints, and growlers. There you’ll find the cozy comfort and antique ambiance of a converted auto repair garage. Or, for three seasons of the year, enjoy a brew and entertainment under the sun and stars of our outdoor patio.
