Communicator Guy here - In a true dash of Kismet, by a wonderful, strange coincidence, I'm in this fantastic place, which features great local food, wine, & some fine local brews on tap. AND, the Heritage Radio Network is in an adjacent building, where we will be appearing tomorrow, on Beer Sessions Radio! Life is good, Happy Hour Nation. Life is good.
Artsy guy here! Wow. What a day it was at Cookout NYC! Here are a few more photos from the festivities...
People and flames!
Mama's making little burgers, and the tunes are jammin'!
Lady Liberty.Again, make it a point to get to this event next year. Truly amazing! And even beyond this event, Governor's Island is a great place to visit on a summer weekend's day. The ferry is free. You can bring a picnic and rent bikes. Check out their site for their calendar of events. That's what's HOPpenin', y'all!
Artsy Guy again! Okay, here in the middle of the East River, the first food coma has set in. We've had pork belly, buffalo tongue, and shaved ice with fruity pebbles. Now it's time to pull up a patch o' grass an prep for another raid on the meat lockers. Here are a few shots.
Artsy Guy here. Communicator Guy gave you the deets on our adventure here on Governor's Island. Sheesh! What a day! Here are a few shots. Make this annual event a priority. Cookout NYC!
Hey all! Communicator Guy here, checking in from Governor's Island, (as in, why the F haven't I been out here before? Governor's Island) just a short FREE ferry ride from South Ferry at the southern tip if Manhattan. We're here today for FoodKarma's Cook Out NYC, a festival of grilled meat and craft beer like none we've ever seen. On tap are 4 varieties of Sixpoint Craft Ales, including the Righteus Rye, Signal Smoked Amber (!!), Belgian IPA, and the Brevity Belgian Wit flanked by meat meat meat from Incredible NY area restaurants literally as far as the eye can see! Jimmy Carbone (of Jimmy's #43, one of our favorite NYC bars) is hosting. A recommendation you can try at home: Sixpoint Signal with a barbecued pork Belly adobo. A can't miss summer treat. WOW!
Artsy Guy here! The Guys are back at Get Real NYC Belgian Fest for day two. Keep an eye out for some recommendations for some especially amazing brews to look for wherever fine beer is sold and poured. In the mean time, here are some shots from the day...
