| Anyone visited the Southern Tier brewery/pub (Empty Pint)? Is it worth going? The Empty Pint closes early (8 p.m.). Is there much else in the area to make it worth the drive and staying overnight? |

I haven't been, but it probably depends what you're looking for. My guess is that it's beautiful country but laid back/rural. You'll have better luck looking for stuff to do in Jamestown (5 miles from Lakewood, where Southern Tier is located) than in Lakewood itself.

| Sorry to dredge up this decrepit thread, but I, too, am heading to the Lakewood/Jamestown district this weekend, and am wondering if anyone has any good tips on pubs or general sightseeing (other than Southern Tier, which is obviously on the menu). |

If you can tolerate baseball, go to Russell Diethrick Park to see the Jamestown Jammers (http://jamestown.jammers.milb.com/index.jsp?sid=t489). Too bad you've missed the last $1 Bud night of the season.
I think there's a Lucille Ball museum in Jamestown as well. |

Thanks for the heads up! I'm actually a baseball fanatic, and now I'm looking forward to seeing the Jammers play Sat. night. I think we're going to try to check out Lily Dale as well, that spiritualist community. Should be cool. |

Deleted new post on Jamestown, NY and dredged up this one, as it essentially covers the same area I am interested in.
Any recommendations on a grocery store with a decent beer selection in the Jamestown area? |

I don't know if their selection will be as good as those in the Buffalo area, but there is a Wegmans in Jamestown. At the very least they'll probably stock Great Lakes, Ommegang, Southern Tier, Sierra Nevada, etc.
