    A good place for draft beers and being just off the manic Time Square makes the location great.

    Check out the barrel tables at the far end of the bar. Right near the bar, bottles to go, and bathroom.

    If someone tells you they have your favorite beer on tap get off your ass and go. It might not be there tomorrow.

    Beer Culture has the distinction of being something near Port Authority that’s not the absolute worst. As you’d imagine, it’s a beer place.
