What's a Beer Locavore To Do?

I have a road trip (business) to Rye, New York. My beer options there are a complete mystery at this point. Applying the 100 mile radius rule to Rye yields some potential fine beer choises. But I fear that the options provided during the business cocktail hour and dinner will be limited to Newark Bud. Should I switch to wine? What if there's a wonderful beer available there that is brewed more than 100 miles from Rye? Do I give up my principles and imbibe?

I fear that I will face very difficult decisions. I'll report the results when I return.
