October News from Jimmy’s No. 43

ciderlineupWe’re so excited to have Cider Week NYC return to October this year, and we have a week-plus of programming, bringing cider makers and their great beverage to Jimmy’s No. 43 during the annual event that takes place Friday, October 21st, through Sunday, October 30th. As in years past, we expect Jimmy’s No. 43 to be the hang-out spot for the many cider makers (and cider lovers) who visit the city each year during this 10-day celebration of great NY State (and beyond) ciders. We’ll have pop-up tastings and programming throughout the week, but among our featured events will include (all subject to change):

  • A very special cask tap kick-off for Cider Week NYC at 5PM Friday, October 21st, with John Reyolds of Blackduck Cidery

Red Wine & Burger Thursdays

Burger2Welcome back fall! We happen to love red wine when the days grow shorter and the temperatures give us energy anew! What better time to celebrate the grape than October and what better place than Jimmy’s No. 43 where we like to pair our Cabernets, Merlots and Table Reds with our Best Burger with a custom grind from Fleisher’s Craft Butchery.

We are offering special pours by the glass every Thursday this month starting tonight. So drop on by for red wine and burgers (or, you know, just the wine!).  And if you prefer beer with your grass-fed beef, well we have a couple of autumn favorites on draught right now, including Crooked Stave’s Colorado Wild Sage, an unfiltered Zwicklbier from Catskill Brewery and two hoppy beers from Industrial Arts.
