Brewery Recognized for its Craft Brewing Heritage

Jul 31, 2009 by Saranac Brewery | Post a Comment

Charlie Papazian, well known and acclaimed Craft Beer Enthusiast, has declared The F.X. Matt Brewery "a heritage brewery reinventing itself".  According to Charlie, there are only 12 breweries in the U.S. that have survived the ups and downs of the ever changing and sometimes turbulent industry for 100 plus years. There are only 4 of these breweries who are still family owned and operated. Our seemingly small but exceedingly large Brewery, both in size and in contribution to craft breweries and brewers everywhere, happens to be one of those four. This is a must read article touching on the nostalgia our Brewery has, and showing the significance of our Company's rich history and the significance of our presence in New York State.

Nick ThumbnailIn a day where is important to support local products, this article certainly displays why. Charlie says "Utica, New York may seem a bit out of the way for east coast beer enthusiasts, but there's no other brewery in America that reveals the history and transition of America's brewery culture better than the Saranac-Matt Brewing Company." What an awesome tribute! Thanks Charlie!
