New York beers to try

[badlee]

Dear all,
I live in Thailand, but will have a friend in New York to bring me some cans over. If you were to reccomend 10 ipa,iipa,ris, brett beers or sours that are easily obtainable in NY, what would they be?
Cheers very much in advance.

Brooklyn Brewery is the Sam Adams of NY, pretty good line up. 5 Boroughs and Sixpoints have good beer available in cans, too. You can also ask him to bring NJ like Kane

Grimm Artisinal Ales 110%
Other half
Sand City
Tree House is hard to find but if obtainable you don't want to miss out it's awesome stuff
Two Roads Two Juicy is great and easy to find
Those are who's IPA's you want

RIS
The only one I know I can recommend is Spider Bite Brewing Boris the Spider RIS

Sours are not my thing but I do try them 2 or 3 times a year just in case


Hope you enjoy whatever you end up with

I assume you mean the Evil Empire New York City. I tend to stay away but

Other Half IPAs
And I hear Suarez distributes to NYC. I think cans/bottles for sours and they have some good lagers too


Edit: they currently distro to Brooklyn. They lost areas at the bottom

Go to Other Half Brewery in Brooklyn and buy every canned IPA on offer that day.
