Cider Is Poetry For A Rainy Day

If the weather today has dampened your mood, stop by Jimmy’s No. 43 for friends, cider and food.The rain and the gloom will be checked at the door, because we have ciders all ready to pour.

In case you don’t know, it’s cider week in New York. Tonight there’s a food pairing (we’ll give you a fork). What do we have? A prix fixe three-course meal. You’ll want to join in ’cause that’s practically a steal!

We love the autumn and our Oktoberfest brew. So please come and drink; we want to see you!

You Want Sides With That? Pig Mountain Catskills This Weekend!

In case you aren’t aware, the Catskills are hitting their peak foliage right about now. Ergo, there is no better time to catch our first out-of-town food event, Pig Mountain Catskills. Offering up a pig roast celebrating all things local, Pig Mountain Catskills will take place on Saturday, October 15th from 1-6 p.m. at Bridle Hill Farm (190 Hemmer Road, Jeffersonville, NY). The event will feature chefs familiar to Jimmy’s community, including Heather Carlucci-Rodriguez (Print), Matt Weingarten (Inside Park at St. Bart’s), and Ryan Tate (Savoy) roasting eight whole hogs provided by Hilly Acres Farm and Stone & Thistle Farm. In addition, Chef Anthony Sasso (Casa Mono) recently announced his sides:

  • BBQ baked beans with pig trotters
  • Deviled eggs “pickle back” with some Jim Beam and homemade pickle juice
  • Tomato watermelon gazpacho salad
  • Grilled indian corn with pork manteca, some lime and chilli powder

This is a great chance to watch these fine city chefs in a country environment. Of course, beer and wine from New York state will be available, and proceeds will benefit Farmhearts, a non-profit helping family farms in the Catskills.

For those wanting to make a weekend of it, chefs will be digging their pits and starting their roasts this Friday evening, and a special Pig Mountain Catskills Brunch will be served up by Early Bird Cookery on Sunday (reserved seatings at 10 a.m and noon) at Hill’s Country Inn (6 Bethlehem Road, Callicoon Center, NY). The brunch menu includes trout hash, farmer’s market frittata and roasted corn fritters with candied bacon.

Post-Japan Society Benefit Landed At Jimmy’s No. 43

We were super excited last week when the folks at the Japan Society benefit to help brewers affected by this year’s earthquake brought an impromptu after-party to Jimmy’s No. 43. Luc Boivin from Dieu du Ciel (Montreal) and Brian Baird of Baird Brewing (Japan), along with some of the representatives at Shelton Brothers were hanging out and swapping tales (turns out, Jimmy loves Baird’s Angry Boy Brown Ale).

Of course, Jimmy’s No. 43 is no stranger to helping our beer brothers (and sisters) in Japan. We held a fundraiser earlier this year at Brooklyn Brewery. It was great to see another event to help these small breweries that lost everything after the tsunami hit, and it was better still to have the surprise visit from these amazing brewers. Thanks to Luc and Brian for coming over!
