If all goes according to plan, a new business will be heading to Warrensburg by this August. Bandstand Brew Works will be the first brewery to open in Warrensburg. The owners of the future brewery have been crafting their own beer as a hobby but thought to pursue something larger.

In a Post Star article, one of the owners said, "Then we decided, why not start a brewery? Warrensburg doesn't have one. I think it would be a great thing for the town."

The name of their business reflects the Floyd Bennett Memorial bandstand in town to honor the aviator. They plan on having open air dining and carrying community events and specialty nights once their doors open. Their following is growing on social media as people are eager to know more about Warrensburg's first brewery.
