Stiff Drinks and FREE Shuffleboard at The Whiskey Brooklyn
The Whiskey Brooklyn, which just opened this past August, is modeled after its two brother bars, The Whiskey Tavern in Chinatown and Whiskey Town in the East Village. Not surprisingly, they offer a wide selection of Scotch, Bourbon, and whiskey divided by provenance, including (for relaxing times) Japan’s own Suntory
Brooklyn Pie Bake-Off Benefit
Another day, another food-themed charity event. What do Brooklynites love more than eating local comfort food?, showing off how well they can make said food.

Celebrate 5 Years of The Homestead
