It is SO GOOD TO BE BACK. We know we’re still in this crazy ‘COVID dance’ these days, but the Opening Bash of NYC Beer Week started as a nice hello or two and ended as a true reunion. New York City breweries are killing it in a big way these days, and drinking local in NYC has never been more important. Click on to see some a few old friends that we were so happy to spend a few moments with. Cheers!
Rising from the mess of Omicron, Beer Fests are BACK, baby! In the run-up to the Opening Bash for NYC Beer Week (Saturday February 26th!) we give you this report from the Gun Hill Brewing Barrel Aged fest back in January. Enjoy!
It’s been a tough year for all of us; but thanks to many good folks around the country, it was still memorable. So here’s our FOURTEENTH Year End episode, with great thanks to Gun Hill, Torch & Crown, Rocket Frog, DUBCO, St. James, and at least 70 other breweries who chose to brew the Curtain Up Beer and raise money for good folk who’ve taken it on the chin throughout the COVID19 pandemic.
And DO NOT MISS Gun Hill Brewing’s BARREL AGED BEER FEST coming up on January 15th, 2022! Plenty to look forward to!
The fight isn’t over. Join us in 2022, and let’s keep this ball rolling.
We’ll be here for you all. CHEERS!
Join Mark and Jimmy as they REJOICE: There's a production brewery in Manhattan once again! Torch and Crown is a short subway ride from just about anywhere (okay Staten Island, we hear you) and it's truly fantastic. And they're brewing the Curtain Up Beer to boot!
And speaking of the Curtain Up Beer, Torch and Crown has just released their version, and we’ll be heading there for a super fun Happy Hour on Monday September 29th. 5-8pm, with lots of super deals and fun. Who’s coming? We’ll be there and the cameras will be rolling!
One apocryphal night, a frog took to the air… at the same time as a flame spewing rocket.
And a brewery was born.
Mark and Jimmy spend a few minutes with Co-Owner Richard Hartogs of Rocket Frog Brewing in Sterling, VA - we’ll ask about their multi GABF award winning beers, and ask what’s next for them. Join us!
