Dear Friends and Loyal Readers,
I apologize for not keeping you up to date on the superb beers flowing from our taps! No, I wasn’t nursing the world’s worst hangover from our staff party – although it felt like it!
Rather I was crunched by one of our friendly Brooklyn drivers (right on 5th Ave no less!) who was friendly enough to drive off before asking me if I was ok. Well I am ok (aside from the broken leg, busted shoulder, and freshly scarred forehead). So if you don’t see me behind the bar for a time, this is why.
But I pledge to keep you, loyal readers, up to date on what my fellow barkeeps are pouring from our taps for your gustatorial pleasures.
Without further ado, our beer list this week:

How's about updating the list? It's supposed to be weekly, right?
Just getting to the list. Weekly is my goal, but if you read this post you can understand how my recovering body might be a higher priority (temporarily) than beer. So for the time being, biweekly will be the schedule.
Pete,
You've got to learn to prioritize. You look good enough in the pix.
When are you around? Drop me a note...
