In the Lake Champlain region of the Adirondacks, a September afternoon at Ausable Brewing Company already has plenty going for it: local beer, an old farm setting and room to settle in outdoors.

On Saturday, September 12, 2026, the Keeseville-area brewery adds a birthday party to the mix with the Ausable Brewing Company 12th Anniversary, an all-day brewery celebration featuring specialty beer releases, live music and food from Northern Feast.

The anniversary runs from 12 pm – 8 pm, giving visitors plenty of time to sample something new, catch the music and see what Northern Feast has created for its special anniversary menu. Details of that menu haven't been revealed yet, which leaves one particularly tasty reason to watch for updates as the celebration approaches.

Celebrating 12 years at Ausable Brewing Company.

Ausable Brewing Company (ABC) opened in 2014 and has become a familiar stop for craft beer drinkers exploring the Champlain Valley. Its 12th anniversary brings the focus back to what a brewery birthday should be about: beer, food, music and the people who have supported it along the way.

ABC plans to tap several specialty releases for the occasion, including one of its most nostalgic beers, a returning fan favorite and a brand-new offering.

The brewery isn't giving away all the details in advance. For longtime ABC drinkers, part of the fun may be discovering which familiar beer is making its return. For first-timers, the lineup offers an easy introduction to the brewery.

Live music and food in the Adirondacks.

A couple of ABC's favorite musicians will perform throughout the day, creating a soundtrack for an afternoon designed more for lingering than rushing from one activity to another.

Northern Feast will handle the food with a special menu created for the anniversary. Expect the kind of combination that makes a brewery afternoon particularly satisfying: a cold pour, something savory from the kitchen and live music drifting across the property.

The relaxed format also makes the anniversary an easy addition to a fall weekend in the Lake Champlain region, whether visitors are staying around Keeseville, exploring nearby Ausable Chasm or traveling between Plattsburgh and the High Peaks.

ADK Taste pick.

The specialty beer releases are the obvious draw. Returning fans will want to see which nostalgic favorite comes back to the taps, while adventurous drinkers can head straight for the brewery's brand-new release.

What makes this anniversary feel particularly Adirondack isn't a complicated schedule. It's the setting and the simplicity of the day.

Ausable Brewing Company occupies a rural farm property, and its casual atmosphere lends itself to the sort of September afternoon that doesn't need much embellishment. Add locally brewed beer, food and music, and the result feels less like a formal festival than a very good Adirondack backyard party — albeit one with considerably better beer on tap.

Craft beer enthusiasts are the natural audience, but the combination of food and live music broadens the appeal. It's also a good stop for travelers building a day around Keeseville and the Champlain Valley.

ADK Taste recommendation.

Arrive earlier in the afternoon if tasting the specialty releases is a priority. Limited anniversary beers can inspire enthusiasm, and an early start leaves plenty of time to order from Northern Feast, hear the musicians and enjoy the setting without watching the clock.
