George takes a look at thecity's best beer -- from the traditional Brooklyn Brewery kegs to the cocktail-inspired "bloody beer" at Blind Tiger Ale House .

Very cool story. The part about Kasteel Cru got cut out but if you'd like to try it please stop by Cafe D'Alsace on 87th and 2nd. Its a great beer from Alsace, France made with Champagne Yeast and they will pair it with some of their fabulous food!

A Votre Sante!
