New York Brewery Tour

There is an article in today's New York Daily News on page 28 that discusses a New York Brewery Tour. Interestingly, they mention Heartland Brewery prominently in the article. As many of you may know, Heartland no longer brews its own beer. It is now brewed at the Greenpoint Beer Works in Brooklyn. The brewmaster there, Kelly Taylor, used to work for Heartland. Greenpoint is also a contract brewer of Rheingold. For some reason Greenpoint Beer Works is not mentioned in the article at all.

Bar Man thinks an "I Love NY Beer" guide to state breweries is a great idea, but I hope they get their breweries right.

By the way, Greenpoint Beer Works' address is:

529 Waverly Avenue
Brooklyn, New York

My earlier posted information about the Typhoon Brewery was incorrect. For about the last year the Chelsea Brewery has been making their beer. Mea Culpa. I swung by to check it out and all of the brewing equipment has been removed as well.
