According to a recent report by the American Brewers Association, New York State craft brewers ranked number three nationally in 2012, generating an economic impact of $2.2 billion. – www.businessleadershipforum.com
We’ve all been hearing about the good things brewing in Buffalo. From the incredible fortitude of the brewers at Community Beer Works, to the stamina and longevity of Flying Bison, Buffalo’s brewery history is alive and well in the form of a new breed of brewers who are making a mark on the region and beyond.
But don’t just take it from us. Instead, consider attending a Business Leadership Forum on Wednesday, May 7, 2014 at the Burchfield-Penney Art Center. On that day there will a panel discussion featuring a few of the most recognized and respected beer authorities in Buffalo. There will also be a complimentary beer tasting – a gesture that marks a celebratory five-year milestone for Business Leadership Forum programming.
The event will be an inside look into the recent surge in brewing in Buffalo, and what local beer-lovers can expect in the future.
