It’s Thursday, February 16th. Here’s our list of recommended beer-related events in and around New York after work tonight:

As we mentioned earlier, Sixpoint Mad Scientists #8 Ich Bin Kein, a Berliner Weisse brewed to celebrate Time Out New York’s annual beer issue, will be released simultaneously at more than a dozen bars across the city tonight at 7pm. For a complete list, read our issue recap.
Founders pours a whopping 16 beers at The Gate (321 5th Ave., at 3rd St., Park Slope) tonight starting at 7pm. Among the brews they’ll offer up: a 2009 vintage Imperial Stout, the Devil Dancer Triple IPA, the new release Better Half, and yes, the 2010 Canadian Breakfast Stout. Get there early!
Over in Jersey City, The Iron Monkey (97 Greene St., at York St., Jersey City, NJ) hosts Flying Fish as part of their Meet the Brewery series starting at 6pm. They’ll pour the Red Fish, Abbey Dubbel, the brand-new Exit 8 Chestnut Brown Ale, and more!
