  Amazing, friendly, local, neighborhood brewery. Very personable and relaxing. Great beers. Focus on ales. No lagers. Specialists in the darker ales and historic ales.

  The ultimate New York brewery, born and raised. A true family brewery! Totally a DIY brewery. Its all about great beer and family here. Nothing pretentious or high brow. Just great beers with a great respect for the neighborhood that its brewed in.

  a small, quirky place with a sense of humor. for example, i could not bring myself to try the cheekily named newton creek oyster stout. there's also all sorts of dive bar style decor: antlers, boxing belts, a colorful bar. there's plenty of board games, and the owners are very chatty and friendly , so you feel like you are at someone's backyard barbecue. the beers are well-executed, with lots of styles to pick from, and there's always about 12 taps, which is remarkable given the small brewing rig.

  Food: You can bring your own treats to pair with their beer. I recommend buying a pie down the block at Houdini Pizza Laboratory; they make delicious food fire pizzas. They also sell soft pretzels for $3 if you're looking for something lighter. Brew: This place is your definition for mom and pop shop. I love the craftsmanship the owner put into this place and of course his beer. In this garage/warehouse space he built the tables and chairs, recycled milk tanks to ferment the beers, and has everything set up in the back behind a low-key gate for you to see the magic happen. So rustic and DYI feel you got to appreciate what this place is doing for the craft beer movement. They have a great selection beers and 3 Kombucha options for their non-alcoholic guest. You can do flights, pints, and growlers here. All the beers were not heavy on the palate I feel they all range between 55 - 60 on the ABV scale. Bridge and Tunnel Brewery is a Queens based nano-scale micro-brewery, launched by brewer/proprietor: Rich Castagna. At the present time, the brewery is operating as a one-man brewing operation, with the help from Rich's wife Lisa with the various additional tasks necessary to keep a brewery afloat. Rich has been brewing for over 10 years, and enjoys brewing and drinking darker beers, and beers with a flavorful kick. So the current line leans toward beers that are colorful in the glass (as well as on the palate). Rich was born and raised in Western Queens, and spent most of his life in the New York area short of about 8 years living and traveling around the U.S. and overseas. Over the past 15 years, he's lived in the Ridgewood/Bushwick area, Long Island City, Astoria, and Maspeth. He has 3 kids, 3 cats, a dog, a fish, a large amount of brewing equipment, and a very patient wife. Since meeting bar owners, and discussing the brewery and beers, the question has been asked a handful of times about the name of the brewery itself. It's a great question. A blog post was set aside for an explanation - but to put it into a nut-shell: Bridge and Tunnel Brewery - because it's the bridges and tunnels that unite this city, not divide it.
