Febeeruary: Things to Do, Beers to Drink.
Its time to wash away those winter blues with pints of booze. And, lucky for us New Yorkers there’s a way to engage in hop-therapy no matter your budget. For those of us who are thin in the wallet, check out Brooklyn Wort, Brooklyn’s Homebrew competition where 30 different competitors will have their homestuff’s available for us to drink and judge (and I LOVE to judge) on...

Brew York, New York: Draft Magazine and Heartland... →
brewyork: It always seems that beer snobs in New York give Heartland Brewery an especially hard time. Yes, it’s a chain, but it’s a local chain. Yes, they do a steady business with tourists, but that doesn’t mean it’s not good. No, they don’t brew their beer on-premises, but the beer is brewed in the…

100 Best Beer Bars in America →
This calls for a road trip… Unfairly, it appears that Hawaii and Alaska were left out. So does anyone know any good beer bars outside of the lower 48?

Brew York, New York: First Look at 61 Local →
I’m very much looking forward to going here. brewyork: In an unsuspecting facade on a quiet Brooklyn street, 61 Local is an understated spot with huge potential. “Local” has become a buzz word lately. In some cases, it’s been overused. Yes, the locavore movement has certainly made us more aware of the source of our food, but when it comes to…

It’s funny, because I JUST finished a G.chat conversation with my friend about this. Brouwerij Lane has a great tasting room where you can drink pints, or refill your growler in a lovely atmosphere. Beats the hell out of buying beer out of a sterile drug store. I would love to know how the DR executives define hipster btw…Lastly, if DR knows we don’t like chains (which is one...

Things to Do: Beer-ings for all Income Groups
Everyone likes beer, but not everyone has $. NYC is a city that can put beer in your belly whether you’re a trustfunder or a 9-5er (or a bum, but we will leave them and Colt45 aside for this discussion). The 6th annual Sausage & Beer (&Grains) Fest is happening Jan 30th, with an impressive list of ales, animals, and a price tag to match. I myself, (being of the latter category) -...

The Story of the Honey Beer
“The Honey Beer ($12 at JoeDoe, in the East Village) is one of about 10 beer cocktails that Jill Schulster mixes at this tiny restaurant, which she owns and manages with her longtime romantic partner, the chef Joseph Dobias. She started making the Honey Beer and several of its compatriots in the spring of 2009, about six months after JoeDoe opened, to correct and camouflage what she and Mr....

Brew Masters is Cancelled →
Can’t say that I’m suprised. Sam’s use of ingredients and recipe formulations were cool, but the cool ended there. The show was kind of boring.
