The Brooklyn Brewery

This week the Brooklyn Brewery is the highlight brewer. Coming from New York, the brewery can be found on 11th Street in Brooklyn. For years, the Brooklyn Brewery has produced a wide variety of beers for the New York area. Among the breweries most popular brews are the Brooklyn Lager, Brooklyn Ale, and Brooklyn Brown Ale. For the most part, I would consider the brews to be on the lighter side of beers. Brooklyn Brewery produces many ales and lagers that would be liked by most average Joe people. The difference, however, is that they are much higher in quality and taste a lot fuller than most average Joe beers. Personally, I am an enormous fan of the Brooklyn Ale. Many people know it as the Brooklyn Pennant Ale '55. The reason for the special name is to honor Brooklyn's 1955 World Champion baseball team. The brew originally became popular in the summer of 2005 when it hit grocery stores in the New York area. All technicalities aside, I really really like this beer and suggest that people give it a shot. The Brooklyn Brewery produces more "user friendly" beers than some of the other companies that I like. For example, Guinness would be considered a less "user friendly" beer by my standards because most people feel it is too dark. Regardless, Brooklyn Brewery is responsible for many fine brews that anyone could enjoy. Furthermore, it is impressive that Brooklyn brews are made in Brooklyn, where there is not a very good brewing environment due to the water supply and hops situation. The bottomline is that Brooklyn Brewery makes some amazing beers that everyone should check out. I am a real big fan of this company, and Brooklyn Brewery deserves all the support it can get.
