Buffalo Brewing Company has released Buffalo Snowbeer, a golden cream ale brewed with help from last year’s December blizzard that honors the city s Golden Snowball win.
For John Domres, Jr., owner of Buffalo Brewing Company, it is an extended family of sorts. His father-in-law is a Buffalo firefighter, working out of Engine 36.
Beer is the first order of business at this midtown brewpub. Buffalo Brewing Co. turns out a small but solid range of beers, from the easy-drinking Buffalo Gold to the, uh, evocatively named Buffalo Drool (it's an American brown ale) to the downright tasty rye IPA. The menu offers beer-friendly fare: burgers, fried fish, wings and pizza. As the name might suggest, bison is available in burger, sausage and chili form; in addition, ground bison is combined with ground beef in the meatloaf. Tours of the brewery (located on site) are available.
