Whether you’re a beer geek, heady-brew-bro, connoisseur of craft ale, or just love to sip suds, get ready to kick off the Fifth Annual New York City Beer Week tonight.
The beer-centric festival will bring a slew of events, tap takeovers, and discounts to local watering holes and restaurants throughout Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Queens from Friday, Feb. 22 through March 3.
According to the event’s site, this year’s beer week will be under the direction of the New York City Brewers Guild. The 5th Annual New York City Beer Week will “bring together all 12 NYC craft breweries, nationally and internationally renowned breweries, over 100 venues with more than 300 events, celebrity chefs, and acclaimed restaurants….”
You won’t want to miss “the premier craft beer spectacle of the year,” the guild urges.
