The Guys get another Taste of Victory at 5 Napkin (Upper West Side) with this remarkably light, easygoing, drinkable stout. ;Yes, we said "Light" and "Stout" in the same sentence.

Video episode #174: Sunswick 35/35!
In 2005, in a rather desolate block of Astoria, the doors opened to a friendly, homey beer bar that nailed down a corner of the neighborhood, and some say, paved the way for a renaissance in this part of NYC that now includes 5 Napkin Burger and a cluster of new fancy bars and restaurants. But these guys were there first.
Video episode #173: Blue Point Brewing; a station wagon and a dream.
The Guys make a swing out to Patchogue, Long Island (see episode for correct pronunciation) and enjoy a great interview with co-Founder Mark Burford. ;This is a place that not only is a great part of its community, it helped bring it back.
