Ginger Man - 11 East 36th Street
Visited this place after dinner in Midtown. Impressive selection of beer, and I was able to watch the Celtics beat the Pistons. Tried the Allgauer Buble Bock, Saison Dupont Foret, and Jenlain Ambre all on tap.
Spuytn Duyvil - 359 Metropolitan Ave, Williamsburg
The place was quiet when we arrived around 10, and packed when we left around midnight. Hipster atmosphere, some eclectic decorations including a collection of whiskey decanters and a pregnancy poster.
McSorleys- 15 East 7th Street
Sawdust on the floor, waiters that look like barbers, only two types of beers served in 10oz mugs - two at a time. This place is classic, the beer was good, the atmosphere sold the place. The high point was the cheese platter of sliced cheddar cheese (american was the other option) that came with a sleeve of saltines.
D.B.A - 41 1st Avenue
Wandered by here after McSorleys. Another impressive beer selection as well as whiskey and the other hard stuff I don't tend to drink. Cantillon Iris (for $21!) and an espresso stout cask. Also tried my first Japanese whiskey - Suntory 12, not bad, a little on the sweet side.
