I’m a little bit terrified of Belgian beers

Remember my rant that Bushwick which once produced 10% of America’s beer is shamefully lacking any local breweries today?  Well, Marshall Thompson and Eric Feldman are stepping up to fill our neighborhood’s dark, brewery-less void, with plans to open Braven Brewing Company on Bushwick soil within the next year

I love the small, Gowanus-based gypsy brewery, Grimm Artisanal Ales, which I wrote about last November for a Bushwick Brews column

We are fast approaching the one year mark of Bushwick Brews!  It’s hard to believe that one year ago I was shooting the shit with Maria Gotay (our lovely Music Editor) telling her in way to much detail the scoop about the beer I had brought in a growler to our rooftop BBQ

A few years ago Rich Buceta was a New York digital advertising executive with a homebrewing habit and a stellar collection of Les Paul guitars

The good news about Bushwick’s new brewery Braven Brewing Company just got better

The weekends are never long enough, so that’s why we’ve listed a whole workweek of free and cheap events happening in the neighborhood.

What could possibly be better than an ice cold beer, especially in this sticky sweaty sweltering summer heat? How about

Can we all agree that these warmly fresh days are the best time of the year? Let’s enjoy it out in the open air with friends, beer, and good literature and music
