This weekend is the annual St. George Ukrainian Fest on 7th Street, and we’re hoping you’ll come celebrate before during and after with us! Jimmy’s No. 43 is part of the “brewmuda triangle,” as we share an address with two other bars. Jerry Kuziw built Burp Castle, Brewski’s (now Standings) and the basement that is now home to Jimmy’s No. 43 in the 1980s. It was the birth place of the new NYC craft beer scene that was formed here: home brew groups came together at this address; James Beard Award Winner Garrett Oliver’s first beers were discovered in this location.
Fast forward to 2014, Jerry has teamed with Greg Zaccardi of High Point Brewing to create a Brewski Golden Lager, which we’ll feature all weekend to coincide with the Ukrainian Festival. Greg is one of the better German-style brewers in the northeast, and we think this beer is perfect with both pierogies and shashlik!
And, of course, we’ll have a full slate of great American beers as we close out American Craft Beer Week at Jimmy’s No. 43!
