Three Cayuga County breweries have been recognized by the New York State Senate for their service to their communities.
State Senator Rachel May has presented Aurora Brewing Company in Aurora, Lunkenheimer Craft Brewing Company in Weedsport and Prison City Brewing in Auburn with the New York State Empire Awards. The awards recognize local businesses that have a positive impact on their communities by creating jobs, creating social spaces and contributing to the cultural fabric of their communities and beyond.
For example, May pointed out that Lunkenheimer breathed new life into the Weedsport business district when it converted a former bank building into a brewery.
In her recognition, May pointed out that each brewery also won awards at the 2024 New York State Craft Beer Competition.
