Adirondack Pub & Brewery won a gold medal for its Sour Project Ale.

The Adirondack Pub and Brewery in Lake George is one of four craft breweries in New York state that won a gold medal at the 35th annual Great American Beer Festival in Colorado.

On Nov. 7, Governor Andrew M. Cuomo congratulated the four breweries that recently earned top honors at one of the nation’s top beer competitions.

Adirondack Pub and Brewery, at 33 Canada St., won the gold medal in the wood and barrel-aged sour beer category for its Sour Project Ale, a Belgian-style golden sour beer aged in Pinot Noir barrels and infused with various yeasts.

The beer festival, which took place in Colorado Oct. 6-8, drew a crowd of 60,000 and featured nearly 1,800 breweries from every state and the District of Columbia. At the festival’s 30th annual beer competition, more than 7,000 beers were entered in 96 categories. The entries were judged by an expert panel representing 12 countries, including the U.S. A total of 286 medals were awarded, in addition to three medals in the Great American Beer Festival Pro-Am competition.
The other New York state breweries to win gold medals were Brewery Ommegang in Cooperstown, Broken Bow Brewery in Tuckahoe and Great South Bay Brewery in Bay Shore, Long Island. It is the most gold medals New York breweries have won since 2002.

“New York is home to some of the best breweries in the world that, as this competition demonstrates, are second to none,” Cuomo said. “Congratulations to this year’s winners, who make us proud and are leaders in a booming industry that is creating jobs, increasing tourism and generating economic activity in every corner of this state.”

New York State beers have won 149 medals since the competition began. Last year, New York breweries took home two gold and three silver medals for a Belgian-style blonde or pale ale, English-style summer ale, export stout, imperial stout, and specialty beer.

New York State Agriculture & Markets Commissioner Richard Ball said the results of the year’s competition “are a terrific example of the excellence and diversity of New York’s breweries across the state. I am proud of each one of these winning breweries and congratulate them on their dedication to quality. ”

Empire State Development President, CEO and Commissioner Howard Zemsky said craft beverage production in New York is thriving. “I congratulate these breweries for their commitment to their craft and their world-class products, which are a great example of the outstanding craft beverages New York state has to offer.

New York State Brewers Association Executive Director Paul Leone said, “The Great American Beer Festival is one of the most highly regarded beer festivals in the world, and the fact that New York state breweries took home all gold this year just goes to show how the quality of the beer in this state is getting better and better every year. This is a world class competition and we couldn’t be happier with what New York state did this year.”

In October, Cuomo held the fourth summit focused on the beverage industry to identify ways to boost tourism across the state and continue to advance the growth of the industry. As a result of changes that began with the first Wine and Beer Summit in 2012, the number of microbrewery licenses in New York has increased from 40 to 154, and the number of restaurant brewery licenses has increased from 10 to 36 today.

Officials said there are now breweries in 53 of the state’s 62 counties, including 132 farm-breweries using New York-grown ingredients. Overall, the craft beverage industry is responsible for an annual economic impact of $3.5 billion.
