Details

Once home to 48 breweries, this ancient and tasty trade disappeared from the borough in the 1970's, only to be reborn in recent years with craft breweries leading the way. We'll take a behind-the-scenes look at how beer is made at one of Brooklyn's three present-day breweries, explore the pre-prohibition era as we check out 19th century brewery buildings, and share stories of the German immigrants who worked and lived in the neighborhood, and, of course, have plenty of good beer and food!

I was part of a group of retired educators who took part in the Brewed in Brooklyn Tour. It proved what we always knew, that learning should be fun. We learned about the Beer industry that flourished in Williamsburg and its role in German immigrant life and about how a "new" beer industry is taking hold to meet today's tastes. At the same time we enjoyed tasting a variety of beers and the food that compliments it at several neighborhood establishments. A worthwhile adventure...knowledgeable guide.... a great way to spend an afternoon.
