- From my guide, updated September 2026.
A relative new kid on the block (opened in 2020), Wild East Brewing Company’s success can be attributed to the simple fact that they serve some of the best beer in New York City.
Specializing in “beer that people want to drink”, you’ll find mostly lower ABV beers in Wild East’s taproom including mostly lagers, a handful of IPAs, sours, and farmhouse ales.
The spacious taproom with a giant horseshoe-shaped bar is irresistibly inviting and oozes industrial-chic farm. It’s the only place you want to be during a relaxed weekday. Moreover, Wild East offers brewery tours and tastings. If interested, you can sign up here.
Specializing in traditional Czech beer, this the place to go for saisons and the best sour beers in Brooklyn. Combining classic European brewing techniques with the patience required for properly fermented creations, Wild East’s sours can turn the most ardent beer enthusiast into a regular.
