I will admit, it's been a long while since Tony and I have been to "downtown" Syracuse, but after an unexpected turn in our date night plans, we ended up at Empire Brewing Co. for dinner and a beer...or two.
After sitting down in a trendy, underground bar/restaurant I immediately ordered a White Aphro, a delicious summer Belgian Wit ale made with lemon, ginger, and lavender. It was refreshing, clean, and crisp.
But it wasn't until I noticed a waitress bring out a tray of mini beers to another table-which immediately caught my attention. I squealed with delight when I noticed this little beauty from across the bar....

....an Empire Brewing Co. sampler. The best of the bunch was a seasonal beer called DEEP PURPLE. It was cute, and purple, and delicious! This little sweetheart is a wheat beer made with NYS concord grapes. It is fruity, tart & dry with a purple color and a huge grape aroma....it was love at first taste!
So if you're looking for a change, or a new low key hangout to relax at (for those of you who loved Clark's Ale House will love this place) check out Empire Brew Co.
Take a swig...I dare you!
