Sure, we love our Belgians and our hyper-local brews, but we also enjoy the chance to celebrate the great state of beer in America. From California to Maine or Portland to Tampa, craft beer options have never been so rich. During American Craft Beer Week, we’ll be offering lots of amazing beers, including new launches and a Prix Fixe Market Dinner with all NYC Brewers Guild beers.

Among our events and tastings for ACBW:

  • *New Beer Tuesday (5/13): We’ll be tapping a keg of Ultramagnetic, a 6% ABV amber ale that is a collaboration brew between Proletariat, The Other Half and FoJ (friend of Jimmy’s) Brian Strumke of Stillwater. Brewed with German malts and spelt, fermented with a French farmhouse yeast, bittered with Zythos and dry hopped with 22 lbs of East Kent Goldings, this ale is perfect for ACBW.
  • *Wednesday’s Prix Fixe Market Dinner with NYCBG beer pairings (5/14): Guest chef Annette Tomei will hit the Union Square Greenmarket this Wednesday for a fresher-than-fresh dinner that will be created only using ingredients available that day. So we’re pairing the market basket meal with the freshest of beer options: all NYC-made beers! Tickets available here.
  • *The launch of Brewski’s Lager, made by Greg Zaccardi at Ramstein/High Point Brewing in NJ.
  • *Plus some of our favorite beers from Evil Twin (The Cowboy Smoked Pilsner, brewed at Two Roads in CT), Carton’s Red Rye Returning, Singlecut Beersmith’s Billy Half Stack IPA, with many others to surprise you this week.

And, of course, our craft beer kitchen will be open to serve you great food to pair with your American beers. Join us this week and toast ACBW!
