Last week, to check off an item on Kristen’s epic ‘Goodbye NYC’ bucket list, she and I went on a tour of Brooklyn Brewery. And it was awesome.
It was fun to see the facilities and it was fun to meet and hang out with the other tour-mates (there were 6 of us on the newly-instated Tuesday tour, which surely beats the hundreds they get on weekends).
And it was especially fun to have the beer tasting, where I was surprised to find that I can like hoppy beer and will now be on the hunt for Brooklyn Brewery’s reserve beers wherever I go. I haven’t gone so far as to think about brewing my own beer though. At least not yet.
I’m not a beer drinker, but I’ve always loved the atmosphere and food at the local micro-breweries. If you ever go out to Omaha, Upstream Brewery is really cool.
