Kenji Arakawa: The ladies who run this tiny but packed, closet-sized joint know their beers! Get a cold one or two to drink on the train or a growler for the road but you'll need your own bottle opener (laws.)

Brew York: You won’t have to trek across town anymore for big, boozy, and unusual craft beers now that this bottle shop has opened in the West Village. And you can get a growler filled here from their ten taps.
Jeff Petriello: A newly hidden gem of the West village. Hundreds of awesome beers and last minute party supplies like solo cups, pong balls, and mixers. Also growler taps are always changing with the seasons.
Dan E: Carry some excellent beers including Shiner and Abita
Erin Mclaughlin: Get a cocktail at the growler bar, Jacob will make you your favorite cocktail you never knew you had!
Brew York: Patrick Donagher has done it again. 30 rotating tap lines at two bars, growler fills, well-executed food, and a big backyard. Grab an NY brew ($5 from 11-7) and marvel at the bad-ass draft system.
Sean Fleming: Absolute delicious rotation of craft beers. So just tell the staff what type of beer you like and they have it. They also have growlers. The staff is A+
