As the largest aviation museum in the Northeast, it serves as your private playground after hours, offering a unique chance to explore and discover new craft beers this October. Step into the past and embark on vintage planes while engaging in conversations with the remarkable folks who have piloted or restored these magnificent aircraft while savoring a few craft brews.
