On a recent Sunday afternoon, I visited the self-proclaimed “World’s Smallest Brewery”, located in Coney Island (right next to the entrance for the Coney Island Circus Sideshow, aka Freak Show), near the southwest corner of Surf Ave & West 12^th Street.  Run by Shmaltz Brewing Company, this location makes several beers of the Coney Island Craft Lager line.  They weren’t joking, the space is very small!  The size of a small storefront, the place is a basically one-person operation that brews in one-gallon batches.  Beer is available for sale, but technically, they are not allowed to offer on-site tasting.  If you want to drink their beer while visiting Coney Island, there are several nearby spots including the café/bar at the corner of Surf Ave & West 12^th Street, Beer Island and Bratva. The storefront will be open through Halloween on Thursdays through Sundays, noon until 6 p.m.
