Seen recently just outside the entrance to the outstanding seasonal outdoor bar Oculus Beer Garden.

We are happy to report that we recently visited the re-opened Mugs Ale House, located at 125 Bedford Avenue in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. The space feels mostly the same as before. Gone are the TVs, pinball machine and jukebox. The draught beer selection remains solid. We look forward to our next visit here.

The 16 draught beers available during our recent visit to the craftbeer bar River Crest, located at 33-15 Ditmars Blvd in Astoria, Queens. We look forward to returning here on our next pub crawl through Astoria.
