Meet The Pipers

We first met the Mark and Sharon Piper when we stayed at their glorious Bed and Breakfast just after they had become the inn's new owners in 2009. What an experience! And what a breakfast! You may them as inn keepers, but there's a lot more behind this fun loving, dynamic duo, which you can learn about in our Profiles section.

Cheers For Paradox Beers

The accolades and medals keep rolling in for Schroon's own Paradox Brewery. Huge congrats to brew masters Devon and JD! Their Southern Hemisphere Double IPA won bronze at last weekend’s TAP New York Beer Contest.  Everyone at PDX are “honored and humbled to be recognized for what we love doing.”

Amen to that. If you want a taste of this brilliant drop, ya better hurry. These hand bottled beauties are flying out the door of the breweries Tasting Room.

From PDX founder Paul Mrocka:

“The medal winning beer is a limited release Double IPA brewed with loads of southern hemisphere hops from New Zealand. This is a big, bold IPA with coconut, mango and especially white grape flavors from the hop profile and notes of peach and nectarine courtesy of our house yeast blend.  A puffy mouthfeel is provided by the flaked oats we add. We’re working hard to source more of these hard-to-come-by hops with the hope that we can continue brewing this award winner!"

This Saturday, like most days, will be an excellent time to drink a Paradox Beer or two!

Peace
