Have you ever wanted
54 SEPTEMBER 2 0 1 7
to tour local breweries
but never have the
time? Well now you
can do just that at LIC Flea!
On Saturday, Oct. 14,
and Sunday, Oct. 15,
LIC Flea & Food will
be hosting its second
annual Queens Beer
Festival.
The unlimited beer
tasting event will offer you an amazing assortment
of beer curated by an industry
expert. You will be able to grab a taste from
every Queens-based brewery along with a
curated selection of brews from Brooklyn,
The Bronx and Staten Island.
Rockaway Brewing Company is just one of
the brews that will be on tap for your tasting
pleasure. They handcraft every batch at
their Long Island City brewery with the
same fresh ingredients. Local favorite
Queens Beer crafts great brews for the
“World's Borough.” Included in their
selection is Queens Lager, an American
lager, dry-hopped with Summit,
Chinook and UK Pilgrim.
Once you've had your fill of Queens
beer, skip on over to Brooklyn where
Coney Island Brewing Company brews craft
beer that captures the spirit, flavor and romance
that is Coney Island. If your taste buds
are in the mood for a fresh pale ale, Greenport
Harbor Brewing Company has just what
you need. Their Harbor Ale is a blended pale
ale with a healthy base of barley and wheat
malt for a subtle sweetness.
In addition, LIC Flea is also kicking off its
fall season with an array of new vendors for
you to shop! For global eats, try Japanese/
American fusion cuisine from Tojo Kitchen.
Once you’ve had your fill, head on over
to get something sweet from The Unique
Foodie Witchery. They have delicious pies,
cupcakes and cookies that are baked with a
little bit of magic.
As always, the LIC Flea has plenty of unique
vendors selling all kinds of vintage goods you
won’t find anywhere else. Retropolitan NYC is
inspired by the energy of the city, incorporating
elements and styles from the past and
recognizing the importance of the modern.
This lifestyle brand encourages others to
bring out their dainty yet mighty sides.
