222 W Houston St (btwn Varick & Bedford St), New York, NY
Beer Garden · West Village · 228 tips and reviews
Sparkie: Beers brewed in Greenpoint just for them. (It’s glorious.) Pilsners. Chocolaty porters. A wheat beer called Marco’s Wit that’ll pair perfectly with warmer weather (blood orange is involved).
38 W 26th St (btwn Broadway & 6th Ave), New York, NY
Gastropub · NoMad · 149 tips and reviews
Sparkie: Mahogany and lined with unmarked taps. The walls: adorned with faded paintings. The chandeliers: all halo-y. Greenpoint-brewed house beers, including a 12% ABV caramel-and-toffee-tinged Quad Bock.
Bavarian Restaurant · Lower East Side · 76 tips and reviews
Sparkie: This place is legit: the original brewery operation in Germany has been run by Bavarian monks for 375 years, and this location has six special beers to call its own
Chelsea Renaud: This is about as grungy as Park Slope gets, meaning it’s a tiny bit edgy but mostly clean. Come for the open-air space, stay for the beer selection and pinball machines. Bonus: they allow dogs.
