Since Brooklyn Pour, Village Voice’s annual celebration of craft beer occured just under a year ago, New York City has become a major brewing city for the first time since before Prohibition. At last year’s Brooklyn Pour, there were a couple of new exciting local offerings (Grimm Ales, City Island), but this year, it will be a full on party.
Expect beers from all five boroughs, including Staten Island’s Flagship, Queens’ yeast-forward Transmitter, Gun Hill (the first new brewery to open in the Bronx), Birreria in Manhattan’s Eataly, and a Brooklyn brewery that is so new it’s not even open yet – Braven.
Brooklyn Pour will begin pouring at 3pm this Saturday, September 27. Tickets are $55 for general admission and includes samples from over 100 breweries. The event will once again happen at beautiful Skylight One Hanson in Fort Greene, Brooklyn. For more information and tickets, visit the website here.
