A review of Wogie's in Manhattan's Financial District

Located at 44 Trinity Place in Manhattan’s Financial District, Wogie’s opens its second Philly Cheesesteak / craftbeer location in NYC.  This location opened in February and, so far, is our front runner for best new NYC bar of 2014!  Larger in size than its West Village location, Wogie’s in the Financial District offers several different types of cheesesteaks, bar food and other fare.  The space is half bar and half booth style seating.  Five TVs for sports watching and the space gets crowded at lunch time.  A solid addition for the Financial District NYC craftbeer bar crawl.

A review of Brazen Fox in Manhattan's Greenwich Village

A new addition to the Greenwich Village NYC beer bar crawl!  Taking over the former Hea space at 106 Third Avenue, Brazen Fox is a 24-tap craft beer spot that is a welcomed addition to the stretch of bars along the southern-most portion of Third Avenue.  Bi-level and fairly spacious, Brazen Fox rotates its taps every two weeks or so (a must for a good craft-beer bar).  The bar snacks (chicken wings, pretzel bites and risotto balls, to name a few) are excellent.  Add in the friendly staff and this place must be included on any craft-beer focused NYC bar crawl through this part of town!

Two suggested Brooklyn Distillery pub crawls

A recent Thrillist article (http://dld.bz/dhGww) outlined two suggested Brooklyn pub crawls, featuring the recently-opened distilleries in the borough.  Both bar crawls sound intriguing.  The first pub crawl highlights Greenpoint/Williamsburg and the second bar crawl traverses Red Hook.  Of the seven distilleries across the two NYC pub crawls, we’ve had the pleasure of visiting Cacao Prieto Distillery and the New York Distilling Co.  The latter of which we highly recommend visiting.  It’s a good stop for any NYC bar crawl around Williamsburg.
