How to Get Your Hands on Free Beer from Newburgh Brewing Company

Today was very special for everyone at WRRV... it was production day for our beer collaboration with Newburgh Brewing Company!

Not only is the beer awesome (and made to honor more than 10 years of WRRV Sessions in the taproom), but WRRV listeners have an opportunity to get their hands on a free collectible can in just a few days.

Behind the Scenes at Newburgh Brewing Company

I've been to Newburgh Brewing Company dozens of times. Of course for our free WRRV Sessions shows, but also to enjoy the food, beer, and views that make it one of the best gathering places in the Hudson Valley. I'd never been downstairs, though...

Visiting the Brewery Floor at Newburgh Brewing Company

The amazing building, which was built in the 1850s, is hiding more than a few secrets. Take a trip down this narrow staircase (above) and you'll find what I can only describe as a Batcave for beer production (below).

Canning the Custom WRRV Sessions Boss Beer

The brewery floor was literally humming, and as we wound our way through the equipment, we saw the source of the sound: the canning line. Today was extra exciting as they were beginning the canning for WRRV Sessions Boss (below).
