The Max: Empire Brewing Co. 1/24/2008
SUNDAY BLUES BRUNCH, EMPIRE BREWING CO.
The Max will never forget a sunny Sunday afternoon in Syracuse last spring. A friend's parents were in town and wanted to venture downtown for some lunch and maybe a little shopping.
To Armory Square, thought the Max!
So off we went to Walton Street, where parking was plentiful and people were not.

It sounds like a movie title: The Empire Returns!
Yes, beer fans, the award-winning Empire Brewing Co. brewpub in Armory Square is coming back (as soon as the state signs off the on the liquor license). The anticipated opening is June 5. If you liked the old Empire, which opened in 1994 and closed in 2003, you're going to like this one.
