Local West Confirms 2011 Is Year Of the Beer Garden

One year it's basement lounges. The next year its hotel roof bars. Consider 2011 the Year of the Beer Garden, a trend that is turning Gotham into a mini Munich. Joining Spritzenhaus, Eataly and Food Parc in the beer garden game is a new 6,000 SF beer garden that is being brought to you by the folks that run the MSG/Penn Station adjacent bar and restaurant Local West. The new beer garden opens in early June and will offer 16 different beers, communal picnic tables and "country-fair style food" (think kettle corn, sausages, soft pretzels) to customers who take in the beauty that is the corner of 33rd Street and 8th Avenue. Breathtaking.
