So this is the last stop on our New York mini tour and we were hoping for some sort of grand finale but unfortunately, we are a bit disappointed. After stopping for some wings at the world-famous birthplace of the wing, Anchor Bar, we expected to find another rockin’ brewery offer all kinds of great beers but instead, found something posing as a brewery. Although they had an extensive offering at first glance of their memu, we quickly discovered of the 24 listings, 13 were fruited sours, one was a seltzer and 5 were cans-only leaving 5 draft beers to choose from. The beertender got a little offened when were told her sours weren’t beer after she said their sours tasted like smoothies. WTF? Since when is “brewing” a smoothies a craft beer? I thing the industry is getting a little off track trying to offer something for everyone. If your don’t like craft beer, go to a bar and order a wine cooler! Regardless, we drank the Terp Sauce triple IPA, Frothsty Birthday Cake desert sour, Juice Life hazy IPA and Pastry Works coffee & peanutbutter stout. The IPA’s and stout were pretty good but the sour was, well, not beer.
