As always, our first stop was at McSorley's Old Ale House. After consuming 2 rounds of McSorley's light and dark ale, we had and a plate of cheese, crackers and onions with hot mustard. Corned beef hash was the lunch special. We were later than usual arriving in New York and found McSorley's packed for lunch. |

d.b.a. can always be counted on to have a wide variety of interesting beers on tap. We tried the cask conditioned Victory Old Horizontal Barleywine which was excellent and Fuller's ESB. Because of our tight time schedule, we weren't able to stay longer and try more beers. If you are planning a trip to NYC check out the d.b.a website to see what's new on tap |

We like to take advantage of d.b.a.'s outdoor seating when the weather permits |

We tried some excellent beers at Heartland including Farmer Jon's Stout which was a Silver Medal winner at the 1999 Great American Beer Festival. TheCuyahoga Brown Ale was very good and had a nice hoppy finish. We also sampled the the Harvest Wheat, Indiana Pale ALe, Red Rooster Ale and Cornhusker Lager.

The Ginger Man was our last stop of the night. There were over 60 beers on tap making a decision quite difficult. We eventually settled on Boddington's Ale and Brooklyn Monster (2000) Ale. We will definitely include a stop at the Ginger Man on our next visit |
