I have a feeling we'll be spending most of our time in Brooklyn. We're staying 10 min from the Brooklyn Bridge.
Spyuten Devul's on our to-do list, but I'm wondering if there are any pubs or beer stores that we can add to our list.

I'll need that 1 liquor store that I can go to that will be guaranteed to have the good stuff to fill my suitcase on the way home. Also, shouldn't be out of the way. Does this exist?

My rule of thumb when in the US is when you absolutely want to find good beer but don't have the time to find obscure places, is to go to Whole Foods. They're all over the place and always have a good selection of craft beer.

The big Whole Foods at Houston and Bowery has a great beer room.

If you head over to Manhattan, we had a really great brunch at Spitzer's Corner near the Williamsburg Bridge. The truffle mac & cheese was fantastic and the beer lineup was great too. Russ & Daughters is nearby. The other must is Rattle 'n Hum. Just be aware that if there's a live band playing it's uncomfortably fucking loud in there. The beer lineup at Gingerman is great but we didn't like the atmosphere. When we eventually go back to NYC we'll try Gingerman again but earlier in the week.
