New Syracuse Nano Brewery

I saw that, liked them on facebook, guess the guy is a staple in the Salt City Brew Club circles and pretty well known. I nterested to try some of the brews.

 

I saw that too pretty cool interested to grab a growler for the holidays

 

That is terrific! I'll check it out for sure. Middle Ages has never quite cut it for me.

 

"Meh"ddle Ages

 

How soon til they get sued and have to change their name? A google search of "double barrel brewing" has the first few results of a brewery with the same name in Cincinatti OH.

 

Wonder if dude is even aware. You'd figure prior to naming a brewery you'd do a little research to make sure that exactly this didn't occur.

 

I hope nothing comes of it, Syracuse could use a little competition in the beer scene. Very underwhelming brews by both Middle Ages and Empire. Hope competition would make these guys think outside the box a little.

I would love to see a collaboration between a local brewery and local winery. With all the great wineries in the Finger Lakes I would like to see Middle Ages or Empire do some sort of wine barrel age collaboration. The stuff that these two put out is just rather boring in my opinion and shows little creativity.

 

Agreed 100%. Standard, boring beers.

 

I agree with both of these posts above... Ah it can be pretty frustrating at times!

 

Anyone make it over there? Grand opening was yesterday.

 

Yeah we went yesterday afternoon. $2/ eight samples. Pretty good crowd. Owners seemed like very nice folks. Beers were passable but nothing great IMO. Our favorites were the porter, brown, and milk stout. Hoppy offerings had nice aroma but had a weird finish. Carbonation from beer to beer seemed to vary quite a bit and some of the beers lacked body. We grabbed a growler of the porter and we will be back to in the future to see how things progress

 

I was there too - the brown was my favorite by far, probably the milk stout 2nd. I think some of the carbonation issues resulted from the quick pace of getting ready for the opening, and I think some beers were still a bit green for the same reason, so no doubt these issues will get worked out. But good opening overall and I'm looking forward to seeing what comes next.

 

Nice. Thanks for the input guys. I will be making a stop there in the near future.

 

Are they on tap anywhere? Going to be in Syracuse on Wednesday night before driving the rest of the way to Philly and although we are getting in late would love to be able to try one or two of their brews.

 

Tim does both?
