Brooklyn Homebrew Tour

Brooklyn Homebrew Tour

Despite New York's gnat-size apartments, NYC homebrewers refuse to let space limitations detract them from their mission: crafting some of the city's tastiest beer. On this tour, you'll venture inside the homes of three of the city's finest amateur brewers, who will display their set-ups, discuss their craft and, most importantly, open up their stash of superlative beer.

Today, we're going to be swinging through Williamsburg and Greenpoint. We're starting at the loft of ace homebrewers Chris Cuzme and Mary Izett, before making our way down the road to meet Chris Prout (of Brouwerij Lane) and Jeff Quinn. Today's list is shaping up to be amazing: sours, meads, kvass, Brettanomyces-dosed beers, a hibiscus pale ale and likely an IPA or two as well.

There will be three stops in all with around 10 beers to sample. And it'll all be on foot!

Eat a big lunch. Your guide is NYC beer journalist and Brewed Awakening author Joshua M. Bernstein.
