Hello Beer Friends Nation!
We know why you’ve come here today, just sit back and let us plan your week of beer swigging events…
Monday August 20th -
Murray’s Cheese is a locals favorite of most New Yorkers – legendary on Bleecker, I recently had a true New Yorker get so excited that “Murray’s now sells beer!” As if the craft beer revolution was now official in his mind. Well, those of us who’ve been following for quite some time welcome Murray’s Cheese to the table and let’s see what they got! On Monday, August 20th, Murray’s Cheese pairs with the Shelton Brothers to present “Belgian Beers and Cheese” – the problem is (with Murray’s being new to the craft beer scene – we’re very cheap) it’s $75 to get in and availability is limited (10 seats for this class).
Murray’s Cheese is located at 254 Bleecker St., New York, NY

It is sad, but it is true….this is the last week of New York City Good Beer Month. We at the Beer Friends would like to give a huge thanks to the guys over at the Good Beer Seal for coming up with the NYC Good Beer Month idea, getting the mayor to proclaim it to be true and then organizing a multitude of good events with local bars, breweries and organizations to highlight how much this city loves its craft beer. If this isn’t a sign that the Craft Beer Revolution is in full force, then I don’t know what is. (more…)

Hola! Beer Friends here and instead of doing the stereotypical Cinco de Mayo celebratory thing – the Beer Friends did Rogue beer and Oysters! While enjoying the beautiful summer-like weather, we enjoyed the wide variety of pulls offered at Blind Tiger on Bleecker St. and had a few rounds of Yakima Bay Oysters. Viva la Oregon! Viva la Rogue! Here is a sampling of the night: (more…)

It is once again Thursday and a popular day to go out for happy hours after work. No surprise here, I’m going to suggest you go out to a Craft beer bar for your post work drinks.
There’s a new kid in town, and he’s getting a lot of attention.
McNeill’s Brewery of Brattleboro Vermont has come down to New York after 26 years of brewing. Legend has it (a bartender told me) that McNeill’s had always just been brewed and served only for their brewpub in Brattleboro. They were never brewing enough to get their beer to any great area outside of their locale.
I’m not sure if this was due to financial restraints or due to choice. Either way, it is here now and I am happy about it. I have yet to have their darker stuff, but the two Amber ales (Firehouse Amber, Ruby Extra Amber) I had were both delicious.
I have seen McNeill’s at a few bars over the past couple weeks. 3 craft beer bars (The Pony Bar, Blind Tiger, and Barcade) all have a McNeill’s beers listed on their websites.
Go get some!
Live life, love beer
The Beer Friends
