Tasting Room
Our Tasting Room is a great place to try all our beer, meet up with friends, and grab some beer to go. We sell samples, glasses, crowlers, and cans and bottles. We also have swag and occasionally you'll find a limited beer/cider that you can't get anywhere else. Chester is an ideal location as it's accessible both to the Hudson Valley and Northern New Jersey. Additionally, if you're coming from the city and going to the Catskills, we're right off the highway. You'll find a plethora of great places to eat and drink, cideries, wineries, additional breweries, distilleries, and other attractions in the area. Stop on by!
The space
Our Tasting Room is designed to be a comfortable place to stay “in” and try a few of our beers. We have 20 taps, which means an expanded taplist including some brewery only one-offs. We'll also occasionally have guest taps including other New York State Breweries and Cideries. There is a covered outdoor patio and large courtyard with many shaded spots to sit and stay awhile. Wine, Cider, and soft drinks are available at this location. Select Crowlers (can growlers), cans, and/or bottles are available to go.
Food Trucks
We have a rotation of food trucks and providers that are at the tasting room Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Please check our social media for up-to-date info on who will be serving food on any given weekend. Some of our most frequent food trucks include…

TASTING ROOM RULES
Party Vehicles: We do NOT allow party vehicles of ANY kind at our location. This includes any buses, vans, limos, etc. We WILL turn away any party vehicle that shows up, regardless of size and/or affiliation. These are not conducive to the Rushing Duck atmosphere, and they are disruptive to our patrons.
Groups: If you are attending with a group of 10 or more (NOT in a bus/party vehicle), please contact us to let us know by emailing info@rushingduck.com. As policy, we are not able to reserve tables. Groups of more than 30 may be hard to accommodate. Please consider an event rental (see below).
Dogs: Not allowed.
Children: Always welcome, as long as they don't try to buy or consume the beer. We offer non-alcoholic beverages at our Tasting Room.
Outside Food: Not allowed while food providers are at the tasting room on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays.

Location & Parking
Our Tasting Room is located at 2 Greycourt Ave, Chester, NY 10918
At the very end of Main St. there is a fork in the road. To the right, you will see a large blue building that is an Outdoor Supply. Continue past this building to the very edge of downtown Chester. On your right, directly across from Meadow Ave. is a brown barn with multiple garage doors - this is our Tasting Room.
Parking can occasionally become full. Make sure you are following all "No Parking" sings and not blocking any small streets and/or driveways. Please respect our neighbors! However, if the lot is full, have no fear, there is ample municipal parking on the top of the hill, a short walk away. At the end of Main Street there is street parking as well as a few municipal lots. We are not responsible for illegally parked cars.
