Greenpoint Beer & Ale Co.

Worth it, says Antonina. Don’t sleep on the food menu, the German-inspired fare always hits the spot, I’m a sucker for the bratwurst but you can’t go wrong with the giant Bavarian pretzel either.

We met a friend at the rooftop last fall and had a blast catching up over brews while enjoying the great vibes. We noticed tons of folks playing cards and made a note to bring some next time.

The light ales pair perfectly with the German fare on offer, think warm pretzels (so good) and hearty brats served with a generous helping of sauerkraut. If it’s chilly, you’ll find groups of folks huddled around communal tables, pints in hand. The ambience alone warrants it a spot on our list of the best breweries in New York City.
