F.X. Matt to formally open Saranac 1888 Tavern & Tasting Room on Thursday

UTICA, N.Y. — F.X. Matt Brewing Co. will mark the formal grand opening of its Saranac 1888 Tavern & Tasting Room as a full-scale bar on Thursday, March 31.

It will hold a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 5 p.m. with the Greater Utica Chamber of Commerce.

While previously functioning as a tasting room available only to patrons at the end of their brewery tours, the Craft New York Act of 2014 now allows the brewery to operate as a public bar as well, according to a news release from the chamber of commerce.

The Saranac 1888 Tavern & Tasting Room will now be open to the public on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays from 12 p.m. to 8 p.m. until Memorial Day.

After Memorial Day, it will be open Monday through Wednesday from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. in addition to Thursday through Saturday until 8 p.m. That schedule may change because of spring/summer concert dates, the release stated.

 “Our Brewery has been making beer in our area for four generations,” Nick O. Matt, CEO of F.X. Matt Brewing, said in the release. “Now, due to Governor Andrew Cuomo’s groundbreaking legislation designed specifically to enhance business in New York State, we can offer beer lovers more opportunities to drink our beer right here at our brewery.”
