Video #67: The Civilization of Beer!

Beer may have been responsible for Civilization itself. Is Civilization responsible for beer? In Samuel Merritt’s case, it is. Mark and Jimmy make a stop at the Blind Tiger Alehouse in the West Village of Manhattan to interview Samuel and his Beer Education Consulting Company. In addition to advising many corporate clients and beer fans, Samuel also offers incredible beer appreciation classes at Manhattan’s Institute of Culinary Education several times a year. Can fans of The Happy Hour Guys get in on those? Um, in a word, yes. Watch to the end of the episode!

Video #66: Solving O'Neill's! (Murder in Manasquan.)

Jimmy and Mark make a stop in Manasquan, NJ and investigate the only unsolved murder in the towns history with the aid of several pints of the best poured Guinness theyve ever seen. Also providing assistance are some great stories, incredible sushi, stars, funny and engaging people, music, games... and just a few blocks from the beach. Sound like heaven? Close... its ONeills.

Video #65: The Guys, Lou, and The Brazen Head.

The Guys learn this lesson: Sooner or later, everyone should know someone like Lou. Meet Lou Sones, Managing Parter and onsite boss for the Brazen Head, one of the homiest Brooklyn bars weve come across (with a very impressive beer, scotch and bourbon list!) Lou leads Mark and Jimmy on a tour of the Brazen Head, which admittedly has a strange name with a fantastic pedigree; the Brazen Head also features some great year-round events including Cask Ale festivals (three a year) and their Spring Clam Shuck. This years Clam Shuck is on April 18th (saturday) from 5-10 PM, and the Spring Cask Fest is on May 1-3rd. No visit to Brooklyn should be complete without a stop at the Brazen Head. Cheers!

Video #64: Jumping the shark at Spring Lounge!

Spring has sprung, and so have we! Join us as we explore one of NYC's surprise bars. The Spring Lounge has history, craft beer, daily specials, and rewards for being the first one of your friends to begin drinking each day. Really, it does. Full of good people and good drinks, the Spring deserves to be on every list of top bars in the city. We'll show you why:

Video #62: The Guys get 'planked' at 773 Lounge!

Sometimes the best bars don't show up in guide books or history lessons. Sometimes the best bars are right around the corner and right under your nose. Attracted by a group of friends who consider themselves to be a family, Mark and Jimmy trek to Brooklyn and find that nothing beats a bar full of good people in creating a sense of community. Even when a few surprising bits of historical information pop up, it cant overshadow the wacky good times created by The Gang. Free peanuts, wheel of fortune and a spanking? Yeah, its all here.
