Read moreFirst opened in 2002 in the lakeside town of Lakewood, NY, Southern Tier Brewing Company was founded on a vision of reviving a long and rich small-batch brewing tradition in its immediate region of Western New York and Western Pennsylvania. That envisioned revival was realized years ago, and now Southern Tier continues to take its devoted fans’ beer-drinking experiences up a notch with a range of offerings focused on rich, delicious flavors.
What began with a base lineup of four beers — the IPA, Pilsner, Mild and Porter — has grown to include several varieties ranging from flavorful IPAs like the high-octane 2XIPA family, The 2X Factor, to renowned Pumking Imperial Pumpkin Ale, indulgent Blackwater imperial stouts and refreshing 8 Days a Week blonde. And from its humble beginnings in a brewing facility nestled in the woods near Chautauqua Lake, the brand with a once-small footprint has now developed into a world-class craft beverage maker with distribution covering more than half of the United States and tap rooms located in Lakewood, Buffalo, Cleveland, Pittsburgh and Charlotte. Its lineup has grown to span segments including craft beer, spirits, and canned cocktails.
