BUFFALO, NEW YORK
East of Buffalo in the mall area of Williamsville lies colonial-styled
BUFFALO BREWPUB, visited July ‘05. Embellished by a bronze bison atop the entrance, this gray stone-based brewery had a right side elongated oak bar, far left glass-enclosed brew tanks, fireplace and a dining area with widescreen television and discarded peanut shells strewn across the floor. Diverse entrees included burgers, sandwiches, etc.
New York State’s oldest brewpub, Buffalo Brewing started in 1970, when Iroquois and Simon Pure Brewing Co.’s shut down. By Halloween in 1986, house beers were being served.
Limited mediocre beer menu had red-fruited tea-honeyed
Amber Ale, lemony peach-soured orange-dried
Buffalo Bitters, wheat-cracked hop-spritzed
Buffalo Lager and estery grape-soured cherry-tart raisin-dried fig-soured porter-styled
Nickel City Dark Ale.
