TALL SHIP SAILING INTO BUFFALO CARRYING NEW BREW
Contributed by: Latrese Burruss on 5/1/2008


On Saturday, May 10 at noon, a 96-foot "Tall Ship" built to resemble an 1800's era schooner will descend upon Lake Erie and the Buffalo Harbor carrying a new craft brew into the United States. Christened Challenge, the ship will enter the Erie Basin Marina to the sounds of bagpipes and drums welcoming them in. Deckhands and wenches dressed in period clothing will unload barrels of beer for distribution in the United States.

The event signals the introduction of a beer that is known for its "hospitable" roots. Dating back to the early 1800s, people hosted "kitchen parties" where they served the beer and played lively music.

Company officials, who are keeping a lid on the name of the craft brew, chose Buffalo: the City of Good Neighbors to be first to try the beer across the country.

The public is welcome to attend the Saturday afternoon event. The last time Buffalo welcomed a Tall Ship into its harbor was the Amistad in September of 2003.
