Good vibes abound here. Bonus points for positive and queer-affirming energy from the patrons, staff, and owners. If you’re a serious beer drinker, Alewife offers a rotating cast of drafts, bottles, and cans that speak to the diverse flavors and sensations of beer in a laidback setting. On the one hand, because they frequently change offerings, some may find that the brewery is highly experimental in character, though if you’re serious about beer this is the soul of what I feel a brewery is meant to be; ever expanding, ever experimenting, bold with what’s on offer. True story: My partner who is generally against beer tried one of their aged bottles and was converted. Confused the beer for a sparkling rosé! This deserves some applause. Also deserves praise for the bands on display on Fridays and the weekend, great to see in our neighborhood. A very welcome presence in Sunnyside! Keep it up folks.

Great beer. Great location. Always lots of fun events. Should be a regular stop on beer lovers tours of NYC.

A bit disappointed, tried glong around 10pm and they were closed, even though the sign says open till 12.

The beer is good. But had an unpleasant encounter with one of the male band members playing on Monday night open mic. Aggressive and belligerent towards me and my girlfriends for being “not from the neighborhood”. Disappointed and felt unwelcome.

Nice atmosphere to watch a game, have a few beers or any other drinks, and even play some 90s arcade games.

Very nice. Great drink selection. Also they have hot dogs. My only request is that they need a quarter machine so I can play the ninja turtles game.

This is a great bar. So why only 3 stars? Every time I go, it's swarming with children. And, I understand that parents want to drink and figure the space is big enough to let their toddlers roam, but it's also a bar.

Loved this place. Was in Queeens on unrelated business and afterwards googled breweries near me, and it was really close by. Once we got there I was amazed at how cool this place was, all the little details here, and there they let you sample before you buy and they all taste great to be honest. I always like buying merch at breweries and bought their last camo trucker hat. Fire!! They also have pinball and a few arcade cabinets only things it was a 90° summer day and they only have fans inside... but I can picture this place lit on a cool summer night.

The place is very large and has a wide variety of beers. They have programming and happy hour. The inside is very spacious with mechanical games, however in summer it is very hot there and customers prefer to be at the outside tables.

Wonder place to see live music, drink artisan craft beer, and experience quality theme nights that include food from guest vendors.
