Happy Hour: Weight yourself down with some Ballast

It’s Wednesday, January 11th. Here’s our list of recommended beer-related events in and around New York after work tonight:

• Ballast Point pays a visit to The Double Windsor (210 Prospect Park West, at 16th St., Windsor Terrace) tonight starting at 7pm. They’ll be pouring San Salvador Saison, Victory at Sea Vanilla Coffee Imperial Porter, the venerable Sculpin, and more… all for just five bucks!
• #OccupyStagsHead! Sixpoint takes over the taps tonight at The Stag’s Head (252 E. 51st St., at 2nd Ave., Turtle Bay). Starting at 6pm, they’ll pour Gorilla Warfare porter, Lil Buzz, Mad Scientists #4 (Hibiscus Ale), and, appropriately, Occupation Ale. They’ll also be passing around free mini calzones starting at 6. Power to the people!
• At Mudville 9 (126 Chambers St., at W. Broadway, Tribeca), get your Oskar Blues on from 6-8pm with free samples of eight beers like Gubna, G’Knight, Mama’s Lil Yella Pils, and a few surprises direct from Lyons, Colorado!
• The next beer from Jonas Bronck’s Beer Company releases tonight at 7pm at Bronx Ale House (216 W. 238th St., at Broadway, Kingsbridge). Taste the new Kingsbridge Kolsch, an easy-drinking German-style Kolsch. Support your local beer company!
