Last year Founders took the city by storm, this year they are an established leader in the craft beer world.

Stop in for a Founders extravaganza. Here’s the list:

Rattle n’ Hum is located at 14 East 33rd Street between Madison and 5th Avenues in the Midtown neighborhood of Manhattan.
Wednesday, August 8 – Allagash Brewing Night @ The Stag’s Head, Manhattan:
If you could mix Belgian beer and the good ol’ American state of Maine you would inevitably get Allagash. Brewing some of the best Belgian inspired beer this side of the pond, Allagash is a treat for both Belgian lovers and those of us that still find the style mysterious and elusive. Get on over to Stag’s Head on Wednesday to enjoy several pours from Allagash, snacks and rep Susan Greene as she talks up all things Allagash. Check out the list:

Wednesday, August 8 – Green Flash Tap Takeover @ Bierkraft, Brooklyn:
If West Coast brewing is known for one thing it’s their creative and generous use of hops in everything they do. Green Flash embodies this tradition perfectly. One of the best breweries in San Diego, the state of California and the nation as a whole they have continued to surprise and impress with their interpretations of various beer styles. Bierkraft will be handing over the reigns to them on Wednesday and we couldn’t be more excited and intrigued.

Thursday, August 9 – Green Flash! @ The Gate, Brooklyn:
Yes. You did read that correctly. There are two Green Flash events happening this week. If you missed it (or didn’t get your fill) of Green Flash at Bierkraft on Wednesday then head right down the street to the Gate on Thursday. I don’t want to say one event is better than another, but the Gate is boasting a very impressive selection, including some “can’t get in NYC” and a firkin. A firkin.
