new beer / moms day

Happy Mothers Day weekend!!! In honor of all the moms out there, we decided to close this Sunday so we can hang out with you!

We are open tonight until 11pm for last minute gift ideas like gift cards, or a old fashion round of drinks.

We also have a new beer on tap!  This weekend we tapped the WNY Belgian Pale Ale.  This beer was made with WNY hops and grains.  This will be our feature beer for farm to pint next Sunday 5/17 @ Hamburg Brewing Co.  Our head brewer Dave Johnson and myself will be there pouring this refreshing treat.  Admission is free to the event with pints and flights available for purchase from us and the other WNY breweries!

The Winning Announcement!

It was a banner day for us at RNBC Tuesday May 4th.  Early in the day, we learned that we were voted the #1 brewery at Beerology!!!  The event, which was hosted at the Buffalo Museum of Science, was attended by over 500 craft beer/science fans who tasted sampled from over 25 different breweries.  We brought ‘Not Yo’ Grandpas’ Cream Ale and ‘Polar Vortex’ Belgian Dubbel.  Did you know, that our ‘Polar Vortex’ checked in as the ‘highest calorie’ filled beer by the beer judges at Beerology?!  Well, both are still on tap at our brewery but in limited quantities, so stop by soon to try!

Bring people like Cheryl Johnson and Jen Breier to rep your table. You come home with the hardware.

We are truly honored to have won this award, and surprised in the sense that we had only been open one month and was ‘up against’ some serious ‘competitors’ like Southern Tier, CBW, Big Ditch and many more. We ‘underdogs’ really are blessed and very thankful that the folks at Beerology voted for us working class guys who have been grinding day in and day out, burning midnight oil in the name of putting out a quality beer and brand.  Cheers to you for diggin’ our fruits of our labor!

Special thanks to Jen Breier and Cheryl Johnson.  They spent that their Saturday with us and made it an award winning experience for those who came to our table!  Also, cheers to Community Beer Works who placed in a close 2nd place.

Continuing in our winning ways, we attended the 5th annual Visit Buffalo Niagara’s Beacon Awards as nominees for the Tourism Initiative of the Year award.  We were part of a team with the other WNY Breweries as the Craft Beer category.  The announcement from the presenter stated “In a no brainier decision…the winner is Craft Beer in WNY!”  This event was held at the Buffalo Convention Center at 12pm and held over 500 business people from multiple service and tourist related businesses in the WNY region.  The trophy was then presented to us, Flying Bison and Riverworks on stage in front of the large group. Check out the selfie we took while we accepted the award too!

Thanks again to all who helped us win Best Brewery at Beerology and to those who continue to #drinkLocal and support the growing, and popular WNY Craft Brewing scene.  Cheers goes to you!
