I'm visiting home in central N.Y. and have seen Saranac beer around. I'm wondering if anubody has tried these. They have all different styles and I don't want to blow a ton of $ without a little first hand knowlage.
Saranac is what got me into craft beer (and by extension homebrewing), but I see them as sort of like SA in that they're doing styles like IPA, porter, etc but it's nothing really to write home about. You should try some if you can, and it'll be decent, but not spectacular.
As for Middle Ages... maybe it's just because I went to an all-MA tasting, but that ringwood fuggin' catches up with you. All of their beers have the same general flavor (from the yeast) and were, I thought, overcarbonated.
If you can get any Flying Bison (I don't know how big their distributorship is outside of Buffalo), I'd advise picking some up because that's our one local brewery here
+1 and get your ass to the Dinosaur for some top-notch barbeque. It also has a decent craft selection on tap.If you are staying in the 'Cuse, you should stop in to the Blue Tusk on Walton St. They have lots of craft on tap and have real cask ale pulled from a real beer engine!

I work at the Chevy dealer right around the corner from where you are staying!
You must mean Galeville Grocery. They do pretty well with their selection and they are literally a stones throw from work!
Middle ages Impaled Ale!
Brewed in Syracuse.
