Thursday Tap™ – Yeastie Boys’ Bye Bye Badman

We’re going back down under (where we’re pretty sure it’s the start of summer!) for today’s Thursday Tap™. It’s Yeastie Boys from New Zealand and their British Style Brown Ale (4.8% ABV), Bye Bye Badman. We’re tapping early, because we’re heading out to Hudson Terrace for our Modern Beefsteak & Spirits Benefit for the Rockaways (you can still come out tonight: Ticket link live until 3 p.m., or $45 at the door – cash or check made out to Rockaway Beach LLC).

And our regular bar/restaurant menu is available all night!

Help Our Neighbors & Support Downtown

Jimmy’s is back open post-Sandy. Join us for a few craft beers on election night to support our local bar, and donate $10* at the door for $5 domestic drafts. There will be snacks and a TV in the corner if you want to follow the polls (easy to ignore if you don’t).

We’ll be drinking the last of the Barrier Brewing Company beers we have on tap; Barrier was severely impacted out on Long Island and probably won’t be producing more beer this year. We’ll be rotating the following Barrier draughts:

  • Barrier, Mare Undarum Belgian Style IPA
  • Barrier, Rembrandt Porter
  • Barrier, Le Pete Smoked Wit
  • Barrier, Bulkhead Red IPA Plus
  • Plus, Wandering Star, Red Oktober

As an added bonus for the night, Baby Cake with Chris Cuzme, featuring vocals by Mariella Gonzalez will be playing throughout the evening.

Of course, our regular bar/restaurant service will be available. No $10 Tuesday Tastings this week.

*Suggested donation.

Halloween Night At Jimmy’s No. 43

After the trick comes the treat: Because of Hurricane Sandy, we weren’t able to have our annual Halloween celebration on the 31st. So it’s gonna be Halloween in November. Come in costume and celebrate the treat of having the power on.

Also, we’ll be restocking the kitchen today for a limited menu. We’ll have award winning cheeses and bread from Bobolink farms, assorted sausages from Flying Pigs Farm, burgers made from beef sourced by Fleisher’s Grass-Fed and Organic Meats, and veggies from Todd Hardie’s farm in Vermont. We’ll also have our Bahn Mi Hot Dogs and Grilled Cheese from the regular menu.

All 12 draught lines are up and running, plus we have a nice selection of wine and ciders. Join us!

WE’VE GOT THE POWER!!!

Where was Jimmy when the lights went out? Who cares? We’re open. Full bar service (tap/bottle beer + wine) and free pretzels. Tyler is tending bar. Show him some love and buy a pint (or 3). You won’t walk home in the dark!
