At Rites Brewing, we believe great craft starts with patience, precision, and an unwavering respect for the ingredients. Handcrafted in small batches right here in Bay Shore — no shortcuts, no compromises.
Rites Brewing started with a simple conviction: that the best beverages are made slowly, with intention, and shared in good company. Founded in Bay Shore, we've spent years refining our recipes — each one a balance of tradition and bold experimentation.
Our brewmaster works directly with local farms for hops, grains, and botanicals, ensuring every batch carries the character of the season and the soil. What comes out of our tap isn't just a drink — it's a reflection of place, patience, and purpose.
From bold stouts to crisp lagers, each release is a deliberate act of flavor — designed to be savored, not rushed.
A velvety imperial stout brewed with locally sourced chocolate and coffee. Dark cherry, espresso, and a lingering warmth.
Named for our street, this session IPA delivers pine and grapefruit without the weight. Crisp, refreshing, impossible to drink just one.
Our flagship lager — clean, biscuity, and quietly complex. Cold-conditioned for 45 days so nothing but clarity reaches your glass.
