About First Line Brewing
First Line Brewing is a brewery and taproom in Orchard Park, New York. Its website says it was born from owners Mike and Shane's love of good beer and their appreciation for their family of first responders. Patriotism is part of the brand, and the site describes a brewery that marries love of country with love of beer.
The website calls it a small batch brewery. That lets the team try experimental recipes and keep the tap lines rotating. The beer page has listed a blueberry ale, a citrus lager, a Mexican lager, an Oktoberfest style lager and a couple of sours.
The kitchen serves soft pretzels, pizza logs, burgers and chicken sandwiches. The taproom also pours hard seltzer and wine. The beer page lists cans to go and crowlers too.
Its website says it partners with a new charity every month and donates a portion of its sales. An upstairs room can be reserved for private events.
