Red Wine & Burgers, Meet the Grains Farmer

Burger2We’re launching a new theme night this Thursday, March 3rd, as we pair our Best Burger with wines by the glass from Cœur Wine Co’s Aurélien Chatagnier. We’ll be pouring “Les Mortars,” a 100% Syrah, organic wine from the commune of Charnas in the Northern Rhone region of France.

It’s all part of a regular series of offerings we’ll have as we offer wines and ciders typically only available by the bottle. We believe our Best Burger (featured in The NY Times) with a custom grind from Fleisher’s Craft Butchery pairs amazingly well with red wine, and we are very excited to have reps from the company joining us this Thursday to talk about Aurélien Chatagnier and his winery.

Also coming up late this week is another meet-and-greet with Don Lewis of Wild Hive Farm in Clinton Corners, NY. Many of the NYC SMASH (State Malt and State Hops) beers for last week’s NYC Beer Week were made using his grains. He’s stopping by for a meet and greet this Friday, March 4th, from 5 PM, where you can ask him about the grains/malt for the beers we’ll be serving using his crop.

We’ll have on tap beers from KelSo, Sixpoint, LIC Beer Project, Greenpoint Beer and Ales and others that feature Don’s grains.
And it’s still #LiquidLent our annual themed beer drinking challenge to #DrinkLikeAMonk during Lent. We will have several tastings and one very special “Last Supper” on Thursday, March 24th, featuring Belgian Beers from Artisanal Imports and a whole roast “Lechon” hog. Tickets are available here.
Our regular bar and restaurant service will be available during all these themes and events. Hope to see you at the bar soon!
