Senator Joseph Griffo has invited Charlie DiGristina of “It’s A Utica Thing” to Albany to showcase Utica’s local cuisine during a gathering of the New York State Brewers Association.
The Utica area is buzzing about the F.X. Matt Brewery's new Utica Club sign. On Monday the sign began its trip to the brewery from Serianni Signs, and today begins the assembly of the sign. We talked with Owner Paul Serianni about the process of making the sign and some of its new features.
The F.X. Matt Brewery's latest creation is a hip summertime concoction from their hard soda line called Jed's Mule Kicker, a take on the popular Moscow Mule cocktail made famous in the 1960's. The Moscow Mule cocktail contains vodka, ginger beer and lime; Jed's version is is a malt beverage that features Saranac Ginger Beer.
The Greater Utica Chamber of Commerce held a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Thursday to celebrate the Grand Opening of the FX Matt Brewing Company's Saranac 1888 Tavern and Tasting Room.
