The Fourth of July festivities have died down. You have a post-holiday hangover from the sugary, patriotic cocktails, and you are completely hot-dogged and hamburgered out. I get it.
While I partied with some pretty fantastic people in the Poconos this weekend, I am suffering from all of the above. But what I’m really not happy about is the selection of beer we had on tap. The local beer barn closed (unbeknownst to me), and instead I was stuck with a generic beer in my hand at the beach, longing for an ice cold glass of something, well, more unique. Lesson most certainly learned—I should’ve swung by one of my my local favorites to pick up a small keg. And then I remembered, all is not lost… Big Brew NY is Saturday.
If you haven’t been to Big Brew NY yet, this is the probably the best-case scenario for you to jump on the bandwagon. While this post includes photos from previous events (hosted in the Westchester County Center), this summer’s event is hosted outdoors at the Lyndhurst Mansion in Tarrytown.
Beer lovers, unite! There are over 200 beers to try, including local favorites from The Craftsman Ale House (Harrison), The Oath Craft Beer Sanctuary (Tarrytown), DeCicco’s & Sons (multiple locations), Captain Lawrence (Elmsford), Peekskill Brewery (Peekskill), Broken Bow (Tuckahoe), and Yonkers Brewing Company (Yonkers). Tickets are on sale for $70, but check out the Big Brew NY promo code below to save $10.
Stuck being the designated driver? Don’t worry—there is plenty for you to do. While your ticket will only cost you $15 for the day, you can enjoy the beautiful outdoor venue, music, a variety of food options (see more on that below). If all else fails, ride the mechanic bull—you’ll do a much better job taming the beast than your beer-tasting companions.
Eat, drink, and be merry! Big Brew NY paired up some incredible food vendors with the beer tasting! Check out the pulled pork from Handsome Devil, tacos from Ma & Pa’s Tex Mex BBQ, lobster rolls from DeCicco’s & Sons, and German-Style bratwurst and sauerkraut from Kath’s Catering.
