The Town of Mendon has much to be proud of over the past 200 years, and now the town residents can boast they have their very own beer. CB Brewing Company, located in Honeoye Falls, NY, a hamlet of Mendon, will brew Town of Mendon 1813 BicentenniALE for the town’s 200 year celebration, brewbound.com reported on April, 8.
The town has a rich agrarian history including hop farming. Before Prohibition, hop growing predominated in the WNY area and almost every farm had a few acres of hops that yielded an average of one thousand pounds to the acre.
With a respectful nod to the town’s rich hop history, CB Brewing Company chose to brew Town of Mendon 1813 BicentenniALE with hops that were once indigenous to the area or are descendants of indigenous varietals.
Town of Mendon 1813 BicentenniALE will be available in draught and 22oz bottles. Distribution will be limited to bars, restaurants and retail grocery and convenient store chains in Honeoye Falls and Mendon. The beer will also be available at CB Brewing Company.
CB Brewing Company’s product portfolio consists of its year-round brands, Caged Alpha Monkey IPA, MacBubba Scotch Ale, Canandaigua Lake Ale, Double Dark Cream Porter and EPA. Along with their flagship brands, CB Brewing Company also brews custom and contract craft beers.
