You may call Tim Herzog the Godfather of Buffalo’s brew scene. His startup in 2000 brought a brewery back to Buffalo proper for the first time since the 1970’s.

Now, Flying Bison Brewery is brewing dozens of beers at its Seneca Street facility and is a staple at the majority of bars, festivals, and refrigerators across the region.

On this week’s Latitude Podcast, brought to you by Key Bank, Tim talks about the early days as a startup brewery, spearheading the lobbying effort to change laws to allow breweries to expand, and the growing beer culture in Buffalo.

And check out our Founder Friday with Tim for more about his journey to becoming a founder.
