- Sam BrownOctober 10, 2012If the blackboard of 20 tap beers isn't enticing enough, head up the back to the fridges where you can sample over 700 kinds of beer from all over the world. Unbelievable!
Courtney KleinNovember 26, 2015The staff are amazing and the rotating draught beers mean there's always something new to try. The chillers in back also offer a copious selection, and I'm always fond of places that do growlers.
Eitan LidergotSeptember 1, 2014Can't decide? Get a flight of beers. You can choose from like 20 drafts or hundreds of bottles to have in house. Awesome place on the LES for after work drinks. The bartenders are cool, tip well.
Great beer bottle shop and bar. Always a great selection of rotating taps and friendly service. Free pretzels to snack on too. Sold.
Caroline LeDecember 15, 2014such an awesome bar in the LES. they have the most craft beer I've ever see ...I love it. grab a draft or beer from the back and drink it at the bar ($2 extra to bring beer from the back up to bar)
Check the board for new kegs which are tapped and roared regularly. They also have a great selection of cider and gluten free beer in the back!
Love this place. Huge selection of beers, and you can make your own flight. Don't forget about the unique beers in the back coolers. Lots of them are under $4, plus a $2 cap fee.
Mahesh BahuleyanApril 8, 2018Exhaustive beer list. I found beers I had been looking for that I couldn’t find anywhere else in the city. You can easily spend an entire day here just trying new and tasty beers.
AmateurConciergeFebruary 5, 2017I never drink beer but this is a great experience for anyone. Beer flavor profiles have gotten so complex and enjoyable and the vibe in this shop/tap room is just great.
The Brew NoobAugust 10, 2015Come in to try a beer or two on draft from their rotating selection of craft beer, then bring a beer of your choice home from the extensive fridge selection in the back of the bar!
Angela DumadagJanuary 25, 2015Rotating local and craft beers on draft. Nice bar snacks from local purveyors. Bring home a growler or a selection of unusual/imported bottled beers from the package goods section.
20 Fresh Tapped Beers, Friendly Staff, nice hole in a wall place to hang out, n if that's not Enough.... Head to the back n pick a bottle of u'r favorite beer, from all around the World...
- DoubleDeuceMay 15, 2017This place is amazing. Search out a beer in the cooler and pay $3 extra to enjoy it on the spot. Cheaper than you'll pay anywhere else and a phenomenal and global selection.
Rob AtkinsonJanuary 18, 2016Great for trying new beers, esp if you need to pick something up for a dinner party/try with friends. Have a flight and then buy a growler of your favorite
Dave SFebruary 7, 2012Awesome place for trying some new beers at decent prices. Dogfish Head, Allagash, The Bruery, whatever you are looking for. $2 corkage fee to drink there or pick up a six pack or growler to go.
Andrew ChoiMarch 15, 2014Craft beer shop meets taproom. Try their "flight" to taste four different beers. The bartender who sounds like he just got off the football field will expertly pour them for you.
Christopher DanellaJanuary 17, 2016Insanely good variety of beer both draft and bottled. Friendly staff and free pretzels. What's not to love?
Brew YorkJanuary 17, 2012This LES beer shop and taproom offers 20 beers on tap (including, strangely, Budweiser) for pints and growlers, plus an extensive selection of American and European beers cold and ready to take home.
Juli Foranna JulieroApril 26, 2014Fill your jars with Seison (Belgian style saison) & Yonkers larger (viena lager). Both taste really good!!!! You will LOVE Them! Cheers!
Lower East Side PartnershipNovember 23, 2015Play catch up with the fam with one of 600 imported and domestic beers offered in Top Hops grab and go section. While you’re there, sit down on a stool and relax with a brew.
Elvis RodricksFebruary 8, 2015Not your typical pub. A great place to grab a draft or for that matter a beer bottle selection from their fridge. A casual sit down with no frills.
Laura OrtizSeptember 28, 2013Get a beer flight! 4-4oz beers for $10. Tell the bartender what you're into and he will make you a custom set from start to finish!
Mike McBryanJanuary 7, 2015Excellent selection organized by origin (Belgium, California, etc) and a surprisingly fun bar scene. Will be back. Look out Good Beer!
Shawn BouchardJune 10, 2013Great selection of beer from across the US and the world, friendly and knowledgable staff and you can take your favorites home with you. While here check out the Tenement museum across the street

Get a flight for a good sampling of four, and then grab a bottle in the back of whatever you like.
Jason BrewAugust 6, 2015Impressive selection of craft beers. Even had the hard to find in NYC Boulevard Radler! 🍻
Alex MetzlerAugust 28, 2014Really awesome range of local and craft beers on tap. I can't recommend enough that you try one of the beers by Third Rail Beer... Very worth it.
Alec McDowallNovember 16, 2014Try the Innis & Gunn, the most typical beer from Edinburgh, Scotland. It's so different from anything else!
A good selection on tap and a phenomenal selection in bottle. Enjoy a pint while you pick out some bottles to take home.- The Sandwich Enthusiast 🍔April 28, 2016Great selection. Get a draft, or any of their $2 cans plus a $2 opening fee. Free wifi!
Todd DragooJanuary 19, 2015This place is my personal heaven. Awesome selection of hard-to-find beers on draught and 700+ bottles in fridges.

Ben YoungOctober 18, 2014The great thing here is that you can buy any of the beers they stock and drink at the bar.
Good draft beer selection and cans/bottles. Service can be a little slow.
Régis PouletApril 6, 2016Lovely beer pub with a "a bit too hipster" vibe. But great choice of beer and lovely staff
