Reprinted in full, here’s an item from Brooklyn 11211 this morning: “On Tuesday, the Executive Committee of CB1 Brooklyn voted unanimously to institute a moratorium on new liquor licenses in Williamsburg, Greenpoint and the rest of North Brooklyn. The vote was a response to what the leaders of CB1 see as an over saturation of liquor licenses in the area. The Board’s Public Safety Committee, which reviews liquor license applications, met last night to discuss the issue, and left with more questions than answers. The Committee did not vote on a moratorium, but the issue is sure to come at next Tuesday’s full board meeting.” Whoa! Will be interesting to find out what the full board has to say about this.

Yeah, 1000 different wheat beers. Not one of them tasting any different from the other. Makes you nothing more than a poser.
Add St Pauli Girl, Pacifico & Sol, and of course Henry Weinhard’s Private reserve.

tybur all kinds of fugazy stuff happens with licenses… landlords hold them, people ‘rent’ them, staff has them (tho that is unusual)

I also heard the same story from some guy on Cortelyou Road.
So, apparently true, but with the caveats that my sources are the internet and some random guy on street.
Oh man, I love me some Old Speckled Hen. Mmmmm.
tybur6 – no.
“Harp, Guinness, Boddington’s, Pilsner Urquell or Hinano (guess)”
