It is SO GOOD TO BE BACK. We know we’re still in this crazy ‘COVID dance’ these days, but the Opening Bash of NYC Beer Week started as a nice hello or two and ended as a true reunion. New York City breweries are killing it in a big way these days, and drinking local in NYC has never been more important. Click on to see some a few old friends that we were so happy to spend a few moments with. Cheers!
Festival report: We're BACK! Gun Hill Barrel Aged 2022!
Rising from the mess of Omicron, Beer Fests are BACK, baby! In the run-up to the Opening Bash for NYC Beer Week (Saturday February 26th!) we give you this report from the Gun Hill Brewing Barrel Aged fest back in January. Enjoy!
Manhattan's Brewery: Torch and Crown!
Join Mark and Jimmy as they REJOICE: There's a production brewery in Manhattan once again! Torch and Crown is a short subway ride from just about anywhere (okay Staten Island, we hear you) and it's truly fantastic. And they're brewing the Curtain Up Beer to boot!
And speaking of the Curtain Up Beer, Torch and Crown has just released their version, and we’ll be heading there for a super fun Happy Hour on Monday September 29th. 5-8pm, with lots of super deals and fun. Who’s coming? We’ll be there and the cameras will be rolling!

Looking back on- NEVER MIND, let's look forward to 2021!
Our THIRTEENTH (yup, of course that's the number, because 2020!) Year End Episode looks back at how we approached, then navigated lockdown, and most importantly, how came to the realization that the Curtain Up Beer was THE way to finish the Broadway Six Pack, and take us in to 2021. Cheers!
Lets look back on:

The Curtain Up Beer!
We're back, in person, (distanced) at Sloop Brewing!
At long last Mark and Jimmy do an episode together IN PERSON for the first time since the pandemic, (at least 6 feet apart the entire time). And what a return, as we hang out with our pals at Sloop Brewing in East Fishkill, NY. The Hudson Valley is flowing with amazing craft beer, and at the very source of the juicy IPA spring is their flagship brew, Juice Bomb. Join us!
COVID conversation: Heading to Iowa, and Wise I Brewing!
One of the greatest ways for us to discover new places has always been through a shared love of great flavor and innovation. To that end, it's our great pleasure to introduce Happy Hour Nation to Wise I Brewing in Le Mars, Iowa!
