New York City Craft Beer Events for the Week of February 19, 2012

February 20, 2012

Tuesday, February 21 – Brooklyn Brewmaster Reserve Night @ Mission Dolores, Brooklyn:

Brooklyn Brewery’s main line of beers sticks mostly to old world, traditional styles.  Easily drinkable beer with nothing over-the-top.  Something you can always count on being delicious to almost any group of people.  Their Brewmasters Reserve collection?  Out of control.  In the best way.  They will be bringing the whole entourage of brewmaster brews as well as some surprises.

2009 Monster Ale
AMA Bionda
2007 Black Chocolate Stout
Radius
Concoction
Mary’s Maple Porter
Sorachi Ace
Winter Ale
Blast

After reading that I am actually a bit afraid to find out what the “special surprises” are going to be.  (more…)

New York City Craft Beer Events for the Week of October 23, 2011

October 24, 2011

Tuesday, October 25 – Southern Tier Night @ The Pony Bar, Manhattan:

Here’s an event you won’t want to miss:  Southern Tier’s first brewery event at the Pony Bar.  They’ll be bringing the best, the biggest and the rarest of their brews.  We’re talking hoppy oak age Imperial IPA’s, Phin and Matt’s Extraordinary Ale and some high alcohol, rare bottles that will be mysteriously popping up around the bar.  If you’re lucky one might pop up next to you.

The Pony Bar is located at 637 10th Avenue on the Northwest Corner of West 45th Street, Hell’s Kitchen, Manhattan. (more…)

Live Blog: Strong Island Event at The Stag’s Head

September 21, 2011

Hello Beer Friends Nation!

Craft beer week is in full swing and Beer Friends are hitting up some of the awesome events (we wandered from the Jimmy’s 43 Cigar City event – put Maduro Tiramisu on your bucket list, trust us) and enjoying the craft beer abound in the city. Next up: Strong Island at The Stag’s Head. Long Island has always been a weird beer destination (see Blue Point) but recently has stepped it up (see: Greenport Harbor and Southhampton) in which the Beer Friends have enjoyed and are going to continue enjoying tonight.

Brad’s 1st: Greenport Hopnomi – this is a delicious and hoppy beer. No aftertaste and a hit of bitterness at the front – this is a great taste.

Phil’s 1st: also Greenpoin Hopnomi. Very good and hoppy. Not as bitter as you would think. There’s a small small bit of malty sweetness that just curbs the bitterness enough to take it off your mind. A definite yes from me.

2011 New York City Craft Beer Week: The Beer Friends Event List for Monday – Thursday

September 19, 2011

What a kick-off weekend! The Beer Friends enjoyed quite a bit of craft beer this weekend in honor of the 2011 New York City Craft Beer Week. Rattle n’ Hum threw a great Barrier and Greenport bash Friday night, the Smuttynose pouring at Mudville on Saturday was fantastic (especially that Homunculus) and we’re still not sure which is better – the Concoction or the Penicillin that we tasted on Sunday.

Because there is so much to do this week and weekend, we’re going to be breaking up the Beer Friends event listings for the week. Today we’re throwing at you the events happening from Monday to Thursday. You can then check back on Thursday for the Friday, Saturday and Sunday events – a.k.a. The Grand Finale of NYC Craft Beer Week. We’re hitting the streets, bars and breweries this week with a feverish devotion and we sure hope to see all you NYC Beer Friends out there with us!

Monday, September 19

Got a case of the Monday’s after such a fantastic craft beer fueled weekend? We understand. We also know how to help.

May 2, 2011

May.  What a month.  Spring flowers, worker’s rights, Mexican Fives and Memorial Day.  May is like a non-stop party.  What kind of beer should we drink to start this party?  Ithaca Flower Power for the flowers? The Peoples Lager from China for May Day? Negro Modelo for Cinco de Mayo? A Southhampton Double White for Memorial Day?  You know, cause we’re all double excited to finally be able to wear white now.

Tuesday, May 3 – Pretty Things “Once Upon A Time” Launch Party @ The Rye House, Manhattan:

Ever wonder what beer tasted like in 1855?  The country was just about to be divided by civil
