The Village of Hamburg is turning 150 years old and Hamburg Brewing has created a special beer to commemorate the achievement, 1874, modeled after the original recipe for White Corner Wheat, the first beer ever brewed at Hamburg Brewing. 1874 American Wheat Ale is a 5.3% Wheat Ale, named after White’s Corners, which is now known as Main and Buffalo Streets, that’s brewed with Pilsner and Wheat malts, and Herkules, Perle and Citra hops. The beer is available on draft and in 12oz. 6-pack cans at the brewery.

The NYBP Beer Lodge, New York Beer Project’s new location in Orchard Park in the Sterling Business Park, will officially open its doors to the public on June 14 (11am). An official ribbon cutting will take place between 3-4pm on Friday and will feature appearances from Buffalo Bills legend Jim Kelly, Bills Mafia founder Del Reid and Bills superfan John Lang, aka Bills Elvis, along with other Orchard Park officials. They will open with 17 beers, including Hazy Crush IPA and OP Lager, which will be exclusive to the NYBP OP Beer Lodge, and a seltzer on tap.

Orchard Park’s Wayland Brewing is taking the entire weekend to celebrate their first anniversary. There will be a weekend-long cookout, BBQ specials, live music, and new beers. Wayland will drop a pair of new beers for their anniversary, including Fuller Send, a bigger version of Full Send, their 7% all-Citra IPA, brewed with more Citra, Citra Cryo and Yakima Chief’s experimental 701 extract, and Hive, a lightly tart saison featuring honey from Ellicottville’s Country Honey. Both beers will be available on draft and in cans starting Friday, June 14. The weekend festivities are free and open to the public, except for Friday’s Songbird’s concert, which is ticketed.

If you’re looking for a sustainable way to rid yourself of all of those PakTechs piling up at your house, you can bring them to Buffalo Brewing Company for recycling. The brewery has a designated bin at their taproom for PakTechs, which they then collect, sort, clean and reuse or send back for proper recycling. A PakTech is a plastic beer can holder that comes in 4-pack and 6-pack varieties. And they cannot be conventionally recycled, so Buffalo Brewing stepped in to help. According to the manufacturer, returning PakTechs has kept roughly 80 million pounds of plastic out of landfills and oceans since 2012.

After originally planning to close on July 31, BTR Brews in the Village of Angola have closed their doors for good. “My sincerest gratitude to everyone who has supported myself and my family for the past 2 1/2 years,” owner Brandi Lombardo said via social media. “Unfortunately, BTR can no longer sustain and we closed our doors for the last time. Our hope was to have interested buyers to take over, however that hasn’t come to fruition. The business will continue to be for sale until mid-July and shortly thereafter if we do not have a buyer, we will be liquidating our assets.” BTR Brews held their grand opening on Dec. 3, 2021.

7. Former Labatt House Headquarters Available For Sale
