Top Hops

NYC is a great place for the beer curious and another spot that I have heard about is called Top Hops.

They call themselves “merchants and advocates of great beer.” And with over 700 bottles and 20 taps, it is no idle boast for this hop spot near the Williamsburg Bridge. With the likes of Clown Shoes, Greenport, Left Hand, Troegs and Captain Lawrence available, it looks like a place you can while away many an hour.

Big Apple – Good Beer

I don’t care what side of the US it is on. When a new beer store opens up, I start salivating. If you are in a New York state of mind (oh horrible reference) then head to 422 East Ninth Street and visit the 900+ beers at Good Beer.

You can get meat and cheese along with the draft and botle of your choice.
