Hi all, Heading to NYC for a couple days this week. Looking for a few things: 1) Best spots to go to by times square 2) Best spots to go by MSG before a Knicks game 3) ANYWHERE by either spot to find Peekskill brewing company beers Distro in the city is pretty close to what we have in Syracuse, but I am still looking for what the experts think about the best spots are down there. Thanks in advance!
I don't think you will be able to get Peekskill, there is some in city now, but that is because of NYC beer week.
Question 1: Pony Bar Question 2: Ginger Man Question 3: Agreed beermenus is your best shot. Peekskill wasn't a one off just for beer week it just so happened to coincide with their launch in the city so far as I know.
For 1 and 2, Rattle N Hum, Ginger Man, Beer Authority, and Pony Bar are all top contenders.. They're all witihin a 10 minute walk to MSG for Times Square. I'd recommend checking all 4 beermenus on their websites the day you want to go and see which one has more brews that interest you. If you plan on eating there too, I'd recommend Beer Authority or Rattle N Hum.
For #3) Don't know how bad you want Peekskill Brewery beer.... but you can take Metro North Train out of Grand Central to Peekskilll Station(It's the Hudson Line which is a nice train ride along the river and you can drink on the train.) Train ride is about an hour... You can walk to the brewery from there. Only a 5 min walk (if that). PB beer is definitely living up to the hype. #AMAZEballs. Not to mention the brewery usually has great guest beers on tap too.
Peeksklil's Brewery Ambassador Mike Benz says they have 20 accounts in the city. Check out the Simple Sour!
