My search for the best beer in New York continues…. The day will come that if you walk in to any independently owned Brooklyn restaurant, you will find a beer brewed just for them by Sixpoint. In a span of a week, I was at two of Brooklyn’s hottest restaurants for a meal and …
My search for the best beer in New York continues…. I don’t think I’ve ever heard the word “resin” outside of referring to leftover bits of marijuana. And when Sixpoint released one of their newer can offerings and named it Resin, I assume it referred to the fact that the hop flower is closely related …

My search for the best beer in New York continues…. All the breweries in Brooklyn take risks with their beers.

SADLY, FORT DEFIANCE IS NOW CLOSED. My second trip to Red Hook brought me back to Fort Defiance. I was here just a few days earlier for another Time Out list item, the Iced Coffee. But this time, it was time for dinner, so the deviled eggs were now available. There’s a very funny moment on …
