It was the first medal at the New York State Craft Beer Competition for Skaneateles Brewing, which opened in December 2019.
The other three have won several, including the Governor's Cup for the best beer of the show. Prison City took the honor in 2019 for its Barrel-aged Wham Whams imperial stout, and Lunkenheimer followed in 2022 for its Woodruff Berliner Style Weisse. The Auburn and Weedsport breweries have two of the highest medal counts of any brewery in the state since the competition began in 2017.
Winning this year's Governor's Cup was Grimm Artisanal Ales, of Brooklyn, which also tied for Brewery of the Year with Wayward Lane Brewing, of Schoharie. Each has won the award previously.
A total of 1,320 beers from 207 state breweries were submitted for the competition, and judged March 1-2 in Rochester.
The competition is organized by the New York State Brewers Association and the Raise a Glass Foundation. The Albany awards presentation is the closing event of the annual state Craft Brewers Conference. Proceeds from the competition support InterVol, a Rochester nonprofit that donates unused medical supplies to causes in need around the world.

The New York Farm Bureau is brewing its first beer, and production will take place at a brewery in Cayuga County.

The beer, a cream ale called AGRO-NYS, will be brewed at 11 a.m. Thursday, March 27, at Lunkenheimer Craft Brewing Co. at 8931 N. Seneca St. in Weedsport.
The beer will also be made with all locally grown and donated ingredients, the Farm Bureau announced in a news release. Its canning, labeling and label design were also donated. Donors and collaborators include Cobblestone Hop Yard, of Ontario; Waterloo Container; Brewery Ardennes, of Geneva; and Big Alice Brewing, of Geneva.

The beer will be available for sale at participating breweries in the Finger Lakes. Proceeds will support Foodlink, a Rochester food bank, and the Food Bank of Central New York in Syracuse.

“AGRO-NYS will spread cheer and advocacy within our local communities," said Lunkenheimer co-founder Kristen Lunkenheimer-Slocum. "LCBC is beyond delighted at the opportunity to brew and contribute to the project that has involved and will continue to involve great collaborative efforts. This brew represents our celebration and support of the Farm Bureau’s mission and commitment to our sustainability. No farms, no beer.”

The Farm Bureau's Mark James added, "The Finger Lakes is an area rich in natural resources, and our breweries are known for their high-quality craft beers. We’re proud to produce this outstanding cream ale, and even more proud to be able to support two major food banks with this project. Food security is something Farm Bureau cares deeply about, so we welcome this partnership with our brewers and other generous donors.”

𝐃𝐈𝐒𝐂𝐋𝐀𝐈𝐌𝐄𝐑: 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐟𝐥𝐲𝐞𝐫 𝐢𝐬 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐀𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐥 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟐 - 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐢𝐬 𝐧𝐨 𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫 𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐝.

There has been some public pushback claiming people were never told that the Hometown Heroes flags prominently displayed in the village from May-November, would last only 3 years.

This is their original flyer. Please note: "Flags are estimated to last 3 years."

The Hometown Hero flags were displayed in 2022, 2023, 2024, and as the village informed us yesterday in an alert message, will be displayed in 2025, which will be their final year of display.

The Village further stated they are looking into a new company for the "new" Flags.
