Binghamton Opens 4 New Craft Breweries

It’s 90-minutes up the road, and it doesn’t exactly jump into your brain when someone mentions craft beer, so it was surprising to hear than Binghamton, NY has no less than four new breweries expected to open in 2012.  Water St Brewing (168 Water St, 2000bbl/year, food, standard & seasonal brews—opening in Jan), Black Heat Brewery (no location yet, 10-gallon pico-brewery—hope to open Spring 2012), Binghamton Brewing Co (looking for downtown location, food–hope to open Aug 2012) & Galaxy Brewing (Washington & Court St, 20bbl/week, food—opening late Spring 2012).  Be sure to check out their websites and follow along as our neighbors to the north get some craft-beer-love.
