Visited in June 2025. Small beer store nearby Barclays Center / Downtown Brooklyn. They have around 150 or so cans and bottles in 8 fridges, as well as 12 beers on tap. European beers and styles are prominent. A couple of snacks also available. There is a long bar on one side with a few tables at the back. Darkish, minimalist design, ambient music. A trendy place and no children allowed after 7:30 pm.
