The craft beer tour is a must! http://www.urbanoyster.com/tours.html It was really informative and a lot of fun. When we went in October 2011, it began at Muggs which had a great selection. Barcade is a wicked venue with a great selection in Brooklyn and a short walk from Spuyten and Fette Sau (whic...
