Alphabet City Easy Blonde

-
I discoverer this new brew at the outdoor cafe at Pier 1 in the new Riverside Park South near the Trump development.  This refreshing light summer ale is a perfect fit for baking in the sun on the Hudson River pier!  ABCB is located down on Ave C and offers growlers to go from their east village local.  It was also a good pairing to the old bay fries and chicken fingers.   FYI- you can refill free water from coolers to help wash down your beer.

Talea Penn District (Now Open!)

Talea opened up a third Manhattan location just a few weeks ago!   Conveniently located near MSG and Penn Station, this latest installation of the women owned craft beer culinary infusion delivers a vibrantly colorful experience!   The menu is a nice blend of tap beer, wine, and crafty cocktails with all the Talea favorites just a block away from the Knicks and Rangers.     We visited on December 4th and our group had a great time, and ample seating.  One word of caution is that there is no kitchen or food offering yet, just some light prepackaged snacks.  Perfect for a place to grab a drink before a concert or event at MSG. Cheers! 160 West 32nd Street New York, NY, 10001
