First Look at The Graham

image

Not long ago, from Eighth Avenue to Jefferson Street, there was only one stop on the L Train that lacked a legitimate beer bar: Montrose Avenue. Thankfully for those living in the eastern sections of Williamsburg, that’s no longer the case with the opening of The Graham (190 Graham Ave., at Meserole St., Williamsburg). It’s not a bar that will knock any beer-worshipper’s socks off, but it functions very well as a friendly neighborhood beer bar. And given that it’s the spawn of a pair of similar bars further south in Brooklyn, that should come as no surprise.

Happy Hour: Have you met James?

It’s Monday, August 20th. Here’s our list of recommended beer-related events in and around New York after work tonight:

  • It’s VSK (Very Special Keg) Monday at Blind Tiger Ale House (281 Bleecker St., at Jones St., Greenwich Village). At 5pm, they’ll tap a rare or unique keg of the bar’s choosing. This week, it’s the Hill Farmstead James, a black IPA from the tiny Vermont brewery that’s sure to go quick!

Royla of Shelton Brothers and a lineup of six Belgian beers and cheeses. The class is $75, and there are only a few spots left, which you can reserve on Murray’s site.

  • Jim Caruso, CEO of Flying Dog, guest bartends tonight at Valhalla (815 9th Ave., at 54th St., Hell’s Kitchen) starting at 6pm. Join him and other special guests for $5 Doggie-Style Pale Ale and a bunch of other great Flying Dog brews.

The French brewery will team up with chef Stephen Durley for a four-flight tasting paired with four small plates for just $20 starting at 6:30pm. Beer is also available separately, so you can pay-as-you-go.

Ready for the weekend? There’s only three weekends left in the unofficial summer, so now is as good a time as any to visit The Rockaways and try the debut beer from Rockaway Brewing Company. Their ESBis on tap at Low Tide Bar (Beach 96th St., at the Boardwalk, Rockaway) and Caracas Rockaway (Beach 106th St., at the Boardwalk, Rockaway) for your local beer-drinking enjoyment. It’s a nutty but light-bodied beer that works out just great on a hot beach day.

First Look at Die Koelner Bierhalle

image

As early as this winter, the outside of a building on St. Mark’s Place between 4th and 5th Avenues in Park Slope gave away most of what the inside would hold. Before the inside could be finished, the exterior had a sort of Bavarian theme, and the sheer size of the building screamed for hundreds of happy beer drinkers. Finally, those beer drinkers have been let into Die Koelner Bierhalle (84 St. Mark’s Pl, at 4th Ave., Park Slope) to enjoy an unmatched German beer experience.
