Led by James Beard award-winning brewmaster, Garrett Oliver, Brooklyn Brewery is one of the oldest breweries in New York City. Pioneering Brooklyn’s craft beer revival since 1988, you can find these brews in most US states and over thirty countries around the world.

Their iconic Brooklyn Lager, a tribute to classic London pub brews, put them on the map, but this NYC brewery is anything but static. Brooklyn Brewery’s Williamsburg taproom buzzes with life, offering tours, tastings, live music and loads of delicious beer.

With more than 20 rotating beers on tap, the lineup is highlighted by a mix of classics, rotating seasonals, and fun collaborations. The commitment to innovation and historic significance makes Brooklyn Brewery a place you need to try brewery in NYC.
