66 THE QUEENS COURIER • BUZZ • JANUARY 23, 2014 FOR BREAKING NEWS VISIT www.queenscourier.com buzz FINBACK BREWS SURFACING BY LIAM LA GUERRE lguerre@queenscourier.com Glendale’s new Finback Brewery won’t open for a few more months, but the beer is fi nally going to surface. The brewery, which was originally supposed to open in November last year, faced setbacks due to construction issues, but founders Basil Lee and Kevin Stafford are introducing three Finback beers at three bars around the city. The brewery will have launch events at The Owl Farm bar in Brooklyn on January 22, Jimmy’s No. 43 in Manhattan on January 23, and Forest Hills Station House in Queens, on January 28. The three beers are Pilot X IPA, a citrusy drink fi lled with summit, chinook and columbus hops and hints of pink grapefruit; Puffi n Smoked Porter, American porter fi lled with roasted hazelnut aroma, cherry wood smoked malt and hints of chocolate; and Double Sess Wit, brewed with Szechuan peppercorns, ginger and chamomile. Finback Brewery owners Kevin Stafford and Basil Lee are ready to introduce their beer to local bars. The pair hopes to introduce the beers at other bars in the city, including The Queens Kickshaw in Astoria, and are aiming to open the Brewery’s tasting room in late February or March, according to owners. “We’re working hard to finish the tasting room and open the brewery for beer and tours,” the owners said THE COURIER/Photo by Liam La Guerre in an email. “We wish we could welcome you all to the brewery right now, but alas, NYC contractors have their own way of working, or not working ... Rest assured we’re busy making beer and getting it out to our favorite local watering holes. Hopefully we’ll get the tasting room open in the next couple months.” FLUSHING MOTEL Services • New Motel • Special Day Rate • Newly Renovated Rooms • Free Parking • Fast Speed Internet Free WIFI in each room • Air Conditioner • Cable TV (HBO, Cinemax) Free Movies • Free Coffee & Tea • Mirror Rooms • Business Accounts & Groups are welcome Services • 25 inch TV and Work Desk in Room • HBO, CNN, ESPN, DISC, Disney, Nickelodeon • High Speed Internet Service in all guest rooms • In Room Safes, for storage of your valuables • Massage shower heads • Non-Smoking Rooms • Outdoor Limited Free Parking • Television with Cable Dish Network • WIFI Internet in all rooms-FREE Welcome to Flushing Motel.
