First time going in there. Tried samples of the jerky and ended up purchasing the lemon pepper biltlong jerky. Nice and tender and delicious taste. Next time will sample some of the hot sauces being that I am a hot sauce lover. Owner was very kind and knows his stuff.

This is what I love about small businesses. Hot sauces may not be a niche interest anymore, but to find a store that specializes in them, and an owner who is passionate and can guide you through their selection is so wonderful. Looking forward to returning!

Wonderful little shop with such kind people working there! So many products. I love love love hot sauce so it can be overwhelming to choose something. It was wonderful to speak with people who have knowledge and opinions about the products they are selling. They helped me narrow it down to a tasty few! This is the exact reason why we all need to support local business!

They sure know their hot sauces.

Walk through the Main St. of Beacon and bask in all the little shops. As you near the railroad tracks and come closer to Hudson Valley Brewery, you’ll come across a little hole in the wall by the name of Village Jerk, specializing in Hot Sauces, leather goods, and other knick-knacks. I recommend taste-testing the array of hot sauces from mild to scorching and picking a few bottles to take home. The customer service and conversation around hot sauces and their many uses was informative and helpful. Definitely coming back.

Best store in the entire world!
