I'll see you bright and early at Alewife?

In all likelihood. Final call to be made when taplists are posted, but given that Alewife has more space, more taps (including probably some non-sours to break things up), and a full food list, it's very likely where I end up.
 
i wonder what led it back to being at Alewife?
I was kinda hoping Mikkeller NYC was gonna get it over FG or AW. spuyten is locked in forever

My guess is Patrick wanting to get some more Alewife awareness now that they're a brewery as well. Expecting a few Alewife beers on the taplist.

ooooooh right. forgot about that brewery thing. would be funny if it's 5 loons and the rest Alewife brewing beers. though i don't think they have nearly enough beers.

i did (late) zwanze in 2014, i think, at alewife.
it was really pleasant. probably won't be as chill as that but it's a much better space than FG.

ideally, i would like to get out of nyc for zwanze this year but in all likelihood, i'll just degenerate it up with the rest of the usual degenerates at spuyten.

Last year at FG it was a few draft lines of Cantillon, a bunch of other good stuff, a fun bottle share, Patrick popping bottles from his own stash left and right, and somehow not at all a shitshow. Bringing it back to Queens, to me, even further decreases the possibility of it being a shitshow.

Staying at the JFK Marriott on Sunday night. Are there restaurants near by that have solid tap lists that are also kid friendly (ages 11 &14) .

I don’t think there’s much of anything in that area, let alone a good taplist. You’ll probably need to head west to Brooklyn.
 
Shameless promotion time:

On October 14th my homebrew club (The New York City Homebrewer's Guild) will be throwing a 30th anniversary party at The Well in Brooklyn. Many New York brewers from the old guard (Garrett Oliver) to the new kids (KCBC and Fifth Hammer) came up through the Guild in their homebrew days, so in addition to many homebrewers, including myself, pouring beers and other beverages, we'll be tapping guest kegs from alumni who have gone pro. Tickets are $30 and include glassware (sorry Nathan, don't think it's going to be a teku)

I think Nathan is more concerned if he can legitimately tick all the homebrew on untappd.

to sum it up:

ticking > tekus
 
Hey guys! This Saturday, Beers With(out) Beards is going down at The Well in Brooklyn. 20+ breweries from around the country will be pouring for one session starting at noon, with the focus being on women in craft beer.

The fest is one part of Beers With(out) Beards Week, which is the first female-focused beer week in NYC, with events all around the city. Definitely hope to see some of y'all there!

I'll be at Spuyten as per usual, sharing **** outside and hoping no idiotic mooches try to steal bottles off our table again.
It's seriously my favorite day of the year.

I am sad you are not in the photo.
I have something planned that am, but might try to swing it if I'm not passed out in a corner somewhere.
 
I need more Mure. I deactivated most of my beermenus notifications because I know longer need to know that every place in the city has Mexican cake. But was pretty surprised to see Mure pop up in my email. Hopefully I’ll grab some tomorrow before work.

Hahaha this is the same exact reason I deactivated mine.

Anyway I ended up at Threes and bought two mures and a quetsche. $18 each. Not bad.
