Greenpoint's Beer Wonderland to Open Luksus on July 16

Momofuku (and Noma and The Fat Duck) vet Daniel Burns joined forces with Danish gypsy brewer Jeppe Jarnit-Bjergsø to open the serious bar mecca Tørst in Greenpoint earlier this year. Part of this concept was the inclusion of a 26-seat tasting menu restaurant in the back called Luksus, but since the bar opened fans of Scandinavian-influenced tasting menus and beer pairings have had to wait patiently. Well, wait no more: reps send word that Luksus will open on July 16. At first it will be open for dinner Tuesday through Thursday nights, serving a five-course tasting menu from Burns, with optional beer pairings curated by Jarnit-Bjergsø. The hours will expand later.

For more on the concept and Burns's goals for Luksus, do go back and check out Eater's interview with Burns and Jarnit-Bjergsø from March.
