About Kingston Standard Brewing Co.
Located in Midtown Kingston, NY, Kingston Standard Brewing Co. is a dynamic space where craft beer takes center stage. Situated within a repurposed transmission shop, it offers a fresh take on the brewery experience, with a rotating selection of small-batch ales and lagers. Operating as a nano brewery, Kingston Standard serves crisp pilsners, dry-hopped saisons, rich schwarzbier, and many more styles, all of which draw inspiration from the region’s rich brewing history and culture. The founders, Tait Simpson, Kyle Needham, and Matt Owens, have made it their mission to create a space that celebrates the local flavor, both literally and figuratively.
Community is central to how Kingston Standard operates. More than just a brewery, this location doubles as a community hub and social spot, reflecting the personalities and passions of its founders. Tait Simpson brings brewing expertise, while Kyle Needham contributes his experience as an oyster entrepreneur. Matt Owens complements the team with his background in creative design, blending aesthetics and innovation. The distinct menu, although limited in items, includes thoughtful dishes like lobster rolls and hand-rolled sourdough pretzels, paying homage to the simpler roots of great dining experiences.

Picnic tables serve as seating both inside and on the tented patio, which becomes particularly popular during the warmer months.
