The Beer Here store in New Hartford is once again offering a unique Christmas idea perfect for the craft beer lover on your Christmas list. The 24 beers of Christmas Advent calendar is back by popular demand, and this gives the gift of good brew ever day in December leading up to Christmas Day.

Woodland Farm Brewery of Utica is introducing a limited release of barrel-aged beers at a special event. And it features a very unique regional approach.

America on Tap at Vernon Downs encourages pretzel necklaces while sampling your craft beer. It's a useful tool and not just considered jewelry.

It doesn't matter what the weather is like this weekend, America On Tap is coming to Vernon Downs, period! This is your chance to spend some quality time with old friends, and family, sampling some great craft beer and playing horseshoes. Then you can stay for the races.

One of the best aspects of the craft beer industry is the continuous flow of new seasonal products. One local brewery that is particularly good at this is the Ommegang Brewery in Cooperstown, NY. They are one of Men's Health Magazine's "Best Beers for Fall," and will be featured at America On Tap coming to Vernon Downs.

I've wanted to try home brewing for quite some time, and it looks like 2016 is the year it happens!  One of my brothers-in-law got the 4 of us everything we need.  We're going to turn it into a regular excuse to hang out and drink some craft beers while we wait for our brew to be ready...

If you are looking for the perfect beer lover's countdown to Christmas, how about this awesome 24-pack from 'Beer Here' in New Hartford. Don't suffer through almost a whole month's supply of disgusting chocolate behind cardboard flaps. Enjoy this unique way of looking forward to December 25th.

If you have been on the fence about going to this amazing event, I've got 5 awesome and very logical reasons to get you off and on the side of going! It's the Syracuse Beer Fest this Saturday at the On-Center in Syracuse.

Brewery Ommegang will be at Syracuse Beer Fest this Saturday with some of their fine beverages for us to sample.  Over the summer, we had a representative from the Brewery stop by the station on their tour of Central New York to introduce us to a couple new brews.  Of course, we were very glad to sample these fine craft beers.

Craft beer is a booming industry in America right now. Even locally here in Central New York, hops are a very important crop. Learn about the past, and present, of this important crop in Central New York on Thursday October 29th.

Craft beer drinkers across Central New York get ready for a wider variety of options. Over the course of the next few months, into spring of next year, 7 new breweries are coming to Syracuse.

One of the most important ingredients in any beer is hops. Not only do hops assist in flavoring the beer, but there are many other purposes that contribute to a beer's quality. One local farm has been growing and harvesting this valuable crop for Saranac for several years and the harvest has become an annual party and you are invited!
