Son of Booze and Schmooze with The City Reliquary

WILLIAMSBURGH You know the drill. January storms its way into our city, leaving our hearts filled with cold gray slush and our minds with endless dreary skies. Well, the City Reliquary is saving its year-end benefit for the start of the New Year with an unbelievable line-up of local libations and friendly foodsters that we can only call SON of BOOZE and SCHMOOZE with the City Reliquary!

Please join us on Saturday January 26th, at the Brooklyn Kitchen for an evening of awesome alcohols and delectable edibles. Since the last Booze and Schmooze event (Ahh, February of 2011...) Brooklyn has been beneficent enough to play home to a dozen new distilleries (!!) some of whom will be on hand pouring their tipples for your tasting pleasure.

Local booze providers will include: Kings County Distillery, Industry City Distillery, Greenhook Ginsmiths, Cacao Prieto, The Noble Experiment and NY Distilling Company will all be present to pour samples of their heavenly hard stuff.

For those who need their beverages bubbly, beer from three of the five boroughs and three different types of NYC brewing Micro, Nano & Cellular - will all be represented. Magnificent Micro Brooklyn Brewery will send Master Brewer Jimmy Valm, member of the Worshipful Company of Brewers, who will provide beer unavailable anywhere else in NYC. Alongside BK Brew & scaling a bit smaller, we'll have fledgling Nano brewery Rockaway brewing Co. of Queens, currently brewing in LIC. Then, yet again, even SMALLER, we'll have HOME BREWER and native Staten Islander Dave Z, pouring Cellular Brewed beer, one keg at a time.

Food providers include the always-awesome Meat Hook, the gals from Saltie, snacks from Lodge, Pizza from Best Pizza, Vietnamese delicacies from Nha Toi, southern somethings from Pies and Thighs, Coffee from Oslo AND MORE tbd.

Goody Bags will be provided to all. All proceeds will benefit the City Reliquary Museum and Civic Organization, a non-profit museum in Williamsburgh, Brooklyn.
