5 Ways New York State Is Reducing Food Waste
"After collaborating with Black Seed Bagels to repurpose surplus bagels, the team developed a Come Back Kölsch brewed with locally sourced malt and hops and inspired by a recipe from late brewer Dylan Weber. Early technical challenges—shredding the bagels and calculating their sugar contribution—were solved to produce a crisp, easy-drinking blonde fermented with authentic Kölsch yeast, featuring a hint of lemon, a subtle toasted-white-bread note, and a modest 4.2% ABV; proceeds from taproom pint sales have supported local nonprofits including Greater Hudson Promise, the Hudson Area Library, and AFSP." - Meredith Bethune
