American history really comes alive during the summer at The Farmers' Museum, where daily chores are carried out on the working farm while commerce flourishes at the Village Crossroad. Visitors experience the interplay among trades, village life and agriculture in New York State circa 1845. One of the country's oldest living history museums, it features exhibits, craft demonstrations, and activities.
Taste what's on tap! Brewery Ommegang brews eight ales year-round, as well as an extensive and imaginative range of seasonal and specialty ales – like the Games of Thrones line. After your tour, stop in the tasting room and gift shop, or schedule your visit during one of their many summer concert events. If not for the concerts, come for the Birdies and Beers on the Disc Golf Course.
