Great list, MarkD!
Since you expanded your list to Upstate, I figured I'd suggest a few more in the Greater NY area:
Long Island:
Barrier Brewing Co, Oceanside
Blue Point Brewing Co (my personal favorite), Patchogue
Montauk Brewing Co, Montauk
Greenport Harbor Brewing Co, Greenport
Oyster Bay Brewing Co, Oyster Bay
Upstate:
The Peekskill Brewery, Peekskill
I concur with MarkD on Hudson Valley Brewery. They have some truly excellent sour beers.
Way up there:
Brewery Ommegang, Cooperstown (They're pretty well known and have some excellent brews, including a few Game of Thrones varietals. Their visitors center is currently under construction, so be sure to check if it's open first)

I am always on the hunt for a good beer so If I visit NYC in the future I will try out your list 🙂
Thank you.
