Bridge and Tunnel Brewery

What a great spot! The owner and brewmaster is super friendly. The prices are great, easily $ 4 cheaper than the same sized growler at the next nearest brewery. The beer is awesome. I had a double black ipa which was perfect, and a sour that I really liked. Will definitely be back. Good beer and good company. Check it out.

I tried the beer flight so that I could get around the menu. They let me add kombucha so that’s a #win. The owner was very friendly and explained to me the history of «bridge and tunnel» and it’s not about jersey commuters. Who would’ve known? The actual brewery is inside the bar, so you feel like you are where the magic happens. There are a few games on hand (Jenga). It’s relatively new to this location and I hope they make it. It’s a true local microbrewery.

Small do it yourself microbrewery set on the border of Brooklyn/​Queens. Only 20 min L train ride from Union Square 14^th Street station & a short walk to the brewery from the local subway stop. Good beer at very reasonable prices on pints & beer flights. Have a chat with Rich, the owner, NYC native, he’s a man of a thousand stories — very engaging. 12 taps flowing during my visit. Cash only at the time of this writing.

My friends and I stumbled into B&T Brewery one Sunday AM, and it was really chill. It had a great neighborhood feel and top-​notch beers. All 12 beers on tap are brewed right there, and the bartender was generous with the tastings. The group at the brewery definitely included locals who appreciate beer, but there weren’t any obnoxious «aficionados.»
I really loved their ginger IPA, which had a nice balance of ginger with hops, as well as the Hazel Eyes, which had a sweetness and nuttiness.
I liked the cave-​like feeling inside, as the space is much larger but without windows, than it may seem from the outside. But they did have some lawn chairs by the entrance if you wanted to soak in some sun.
Pretzels for sale. Cash only.

Cool place with very good beers. I brought my beer club here and there were 36 of us and everyone had a nice time. The bartenders were friendly and were happy to explain any of the beers to you. They have beer flights, which is nice, because you can sample several beers before you commit (although some of the beers were pouring verrryyy slowwwlly when I was there so even filling up a small glass took some time, which led to backups for people waiting to get beers). There was nothing I didn’t like, but their brown ale and the saison (not the dark one) stood out as exceptional beers.
This place is very close to the L train, not even a five minute walk from the Halsey stop and although they don’t serve food other than pretzels, most people who wanted something to munch on went down the block and brought back pizza or calzones.
You can really taste the quality of this beer and I hope to see it distributed and sold in some of my local haunts but in the meantime, it’s definitely worth a trip out to Ridgewood. I got there in 33 minutes from my place in midtown on a Sunday so it’s an easy journey.

This place is a great place to hang out with friends and reflect on how freaking cool Queens, NY is. Come here ASAP.

I first came here with my boyfriend on Valentine’s Day because we had heard about beer and cupcake pairings as well as beer floats. Now we can’t stop coming back! Very cool vibe and great prices — $ 8 for a flight of 4 beers, $ 5 pint, as well as refillable growlers. We’ve tried practically every beer on the menu and you cannot go wrong here. Try the newest beer — the Tank Fund! So good!

So… I’m not a beer snob. Ok maybe a little. I’m from LA and we go to the many micro brews out that way. We also have Familia out in Colorado and have try the Mecca that is Colorado brews. I was not expecting much when it was decided to come to Bridge and Tunnel Breweries out in Queens. Let me tell you, that i left there wanting more. Ridge was sharing beer stories. Each beer (baby) has a story. The way he has balance the flavored, aromas, and taste with all the beers on tap. The Sewer Alligator was amazing, the balance of honey and unfiltered wheat! Was to die for. The subtle coffee taste of the Coffee Cream Ale I stop notch. He has it, and you must come out to try seriously one of the best micro brews in the city.

Holy crap. I’m from Boulder, CO visiting some family in Queens. Rich knows what he is doing. A lot of the the craft brews in the area are all flash and show. Every single beer I tried (the whole menu) was incredibly balanced. Rich spent 10 years home brewing following by 3 years of wholesaling 9 kegs at a time. Now he has expanded and all of Queens and Brooklyn is better for it.
Great vibes, great beers, awesome service. This place is just real.

After waiting for over a year Bridge & Tunnel finally opened. The place looks great and the prices are very low.
Rich the owner/​brewer makes some really creative beers and they all have a fun story attached to their names.
Stop by, have a pint or 3 and get a history lesson from Rich.

I visited this Thanksgiving weekend and enjoyed 2 unique beers — Bone Orchard Vanilla Porter and Phoenix on Starr IPA containing hot pepper, which was both tasty and interesting. My husband had kombucha which he loved. The place has a very laid back feel, with wooden benches, barrels and a dentist chair for furniture. There’s some cool stained glass above the bar area, which is pretty small. They serve popcorn and pretzels as snacks and you can order from the pizzeria next door if you like. The variety of unique beers will have me coming back again and again.
