SACKETS HARBOR, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Seaway Valley Capital Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: SWVC) today reported that its War of 1812 Amber Ale, which is produced by wholly owned subsidiary Sackets Harbor Brewing Company, will be featured on draught at this year’s Macy’s 4th of July Roosevelt Island Fireworks Festival. The Dinosaur (www.dinosaurbarbque.com), whose New York City restaurant is located at 646 West 131st Street, will be a primary concessionaire at the Roosevelt Island July 4th Fireworks Festival and will be proudly serving 1812 Amber Ale on draught. The Roosevelt Island July 4th Fireworks Festival offers guaranteed seating and a large food court and pre-fireworks entertainment including live music.
Paul Messena, Dinosaur Beverage Manager, stated “Due to its strong draught sales, the Dinosaur has chosen Sackets Harbor Brewing Company’s ‘1812 Amber Ale’ to be the top draught poured at the event.” Mr. Massena added, "It’s a natural fit given the historical nature of the celebration and a perfect pairing to the Dinosaur’s BBQ.” Mr. Massena expects over 6,000 people to attend the Roosevelt Island event with special guests including New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg and New York State Governor David Paterson.
