    There's a reason that everyone in here is a regular customer. After your first, then second, then tenth time at the bar, you will be too. No shortage of beer (good beer) and wings at this awesome spot

    My only complaint is the food is a little too good. I ate my own weight in wings, grilled cheese and tomato soup and anything else that I could annihilate, maybe someone's hand that got in the way.

    Solid spot for quality craft beer on tap with a huge selection. You can keep track of the beers you've tried; just ask the bartenders and you can create your own card for when you come back!

    See, I'd tell you what beer I like, but by the time you read this tip, the entire beer list will have changed, and that's how you know it's an awesome beer bar.

    It's pouring outside so the fireplace was the obvious choice for our night out! Cozy up by the fire with a cold beer, what more to ask for on a cold night such as this?

    Over 20 choices of fresh and unfiltered IPA’s with an amazing diversitiy of recipes and hops from Other Half Brewing. I’m not sure how often the menu changes, worth checking every once in a while!

    Great selection - the cask stuff is always more interesting. If you're lucky you might get some vintage stuff e.g. 2010 Dogfish head olde school. I like to chill by the fireplace.

    Excellent and constantly changing craft beer list. The wings are great too. Can get crowded, but there is no shame sharing tables with strangers.

    What needs to be said about BT that hasn't been said already? Old school bar with one of the best beer lists in NYC. Stop playing around and come in already!

    Nearly every Wednesday, this bar opens its taps to a single brewery with an epic list of mainstream and rare beers. Don't miss the food, either - especially the grilled cheese and tomato soup!

    Tons of craft beer on tap and a cozy atmosphere. Love the bartenders too. If you're lucky, they'll offer up a free refill.

    Always busy at anytime of day. A constant presence in the neighborhood. Live music with cover at the door in the evenings.

    This is a hot spot for day drinking. They have a great beer selection and they have grilled cheese with tomato soup which is one of my favorite lunch options.

    The ultimate place to stop by for a brew. The beer selection is pretty extensive, which makes deciding on just one to wash down the tasty food pretty challenging.

    Murray's Cheese food and craft beers. An amazingly great mix. Often packed with limited seating but near the fireplace in the wintertime can be a great place to relax.

    Blind Tiger is known for its craft beers, but enjoy one at 6 p.m. on a Wednesday and you'll also get free access to a selection of cheeses from Murray's Cheese Bar and fresh baguettes. Read more

    You’ve got to be crazy to stand out in New York. Near fanatical. Like this place is about their beer—draught, aged, vintage, cask. Luckily the help on hand can keep you sane while you try to order.

    Grilled cheese, tomato soup and a great beer (or two or three) makes a great lunch.

    Great selection of craft beer. Inside is very cool and friendly atmosphere. Always come here when we come home and always drink too much and buy the same damn shirt. Love it

    There's a secret drink called the Hurricane, invented during Sandy when they were rapidly trying to get rid of warming tap beer. Includes cider, slightly sweet and soo delicious

    My favorite bar to visit when I visit New York! Super cozy atmosphere, lots of great microbrews to choose from, and yummy food. The deviled eggs (yes!) and veggie chili were on point.

    A great bar on the best block in NYC. Beer is a no brainer with the amazing selection, but I've had some good glasses of wine by the fireplace too!

    The BT in the winter next to the fireplace or in the summer next to an open window is one of my favorite places in the city. Great bartenders.

    Can't be in the West Village without a stop here. Awesome variety and selection of craft beer. Small place, so it gets crowded. Try to grab a spot at the bar.

    Get some beer or super fresh-tasting cider and sit by the windows post-brunch. Friendly bartenders, but there can be a wait for a table.

    Very famous beer bar with a good selection. With the fame comes large crowds, and that can be frustrating when you actually want to order one of the many beers on tap.

    Awesome rotating and seasonal craft beers. Check your brew's ABV on the chalk board before you order. Go for the gold! Barley wine is always in season! Food is great, too!

    Go on Wednesdays for the gratis cheese plate from murray's! But go early - they put it out right at happy hour and it disappears fast!

    I love this bar! You can grab a drink by the fire in the winter, or enjoy the open air feel of it in the summer. 🍻
