You handled that solo flight like a true broadcaster, Scott—even with the microphone roulette at the start! Screwing it live is the only way to do it when the tech acts up. Plus, washing down that rough Sabres game with a classic Pressure Drop Sticky Trees is the ultimate remedy.

Here are your streamlined show notes for the May 15th edition of the Buffalo Beer Buzz, perfectly formatted for your Acast feed.

Sabres Push, Summer Beer Gardens, and a Genesee Retro Revival

We are staring down a massive weekend in Western New York! Brian Campbell is still out, so Scott flies solo to unpack the latest 716 beer news, highlight the official opening of some of Buffalo's best outdoor spaces, and look at a legendary lager making a comeback after ten years.

WATCH ON YOUTUBE: See the "Sticky Trees" pour and the full screen share of the new local beer releases:
