E-Malt.com News article: USA, NY: Brazen Brewing to open in Lancaster on August 31

The craft beer market in Western New York is about to become even more crowded, the Buffalo News reported on August 26.

Consumers who have been watching Brazen Brewing's progress in Lancaster have been clamoring for an opening date. Now they have one: Aug. 31.

They're rushing to get everything ready in time.

"We're working as hard as we can, believe me," said co-owner Ashleigh Schaub. "The owners and the kitchen staff were out installing fence last week."

The kitchen is putting the finishing touches on its dishes, which will include everything from deep fried indulgences to burgers and healthier fare. There's also a full brunch menu (and brunch beverage menu) which will be served on Saturdays and Sundays.

There will be 20 taps that feature 15 house-brewed beers and 5 New York State ciders, wines, seltzers and kombucha. The first beers will be light, end-of-summer and fruited beers, followed by autumn flavors. A craft cocktail list will use New York State liquors.

The 6,200-square-foot features a 1,200-square-foot mezzanine, two patios, a beer garden and vast outdoor space which will be used for games.

Schaub, who owns the brewery with her husband, Drew, described the place as "a bright and fresh, modern take on the traditional rustic or industrial craft brewery."

Brazen Brewery will feature fitness classes, crafting classes, live music, trivia nights, gaming tournaments and will host private events.

"We're excited to join Lancaster’s growing roster of small businesses and bring even more craft beer to Western New York’s thriving brewery scene," Ashleigh Schaub said.
