What's On Tap New York - d.b.a.

A weekly look at the draft selection at beer-friendly bars across the country.

Wow. Haven't gotten a blog up in awhile: The holiday really wore me down. I was in Seattle for just 4 days and 3 nights (of which the Thanksgiving Day holiday was spent entirely inside a house) and still managed to hit up two breweries/brewpubs (Redhook and Pyramid), two wineries (Chateau Ste. Michelle and Novelty Hill/Januik) and a wine-centric restaurant (eh, we'll leave that one up to the imagination).

My flight lands in Newark just before midnight on Saturday, and shortly after 1am I find myself in d.b.a. on 1st Avenue in Manhattan. If you're worried I might have a problem, don't fret, I had a friend in town from down south and going to d.b.a. was my only chance to catch him before he flew home.

But it was also a great chance to see what d.b.a. had on tap. After the jump, see d.b.a.'s draft list from Saturday, November 29th...
  • O'hara's Celtic Stout
  • Boddingtons Pub Ale
  • Fuller's ESB
  • Sixpoint Righteous Rye Ale
  • Doc's Draft Cider
  • Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA
  • Jever Pilsener
  • Stoudt's Pils
  • Ommegang Witte
  • Brooklyn Flemish Style Golden Ale
  • Dogfish Head Raison D'Etre
  • Sierra Nevada Bigfoot Barley Wine
  • Dogfish Head Cherry Stout
  • Julius Echter Weissebier
  • Taras Boulba
  • De Ranke Guldenberg
  • Ridgeway Seriously Bad Elf (hand-drawn)
d.b.a. always serves up a great draft selection (and is even better known for their choice of whiskeys and bourbons). With locations in both New Orleans and NYC, you have multiple opportunities to "drink good stuff" as their website implores us. And speaking of their website: Live webcams fulfill your voyeuristic desires. But one negative note: Though at some point they must have kept the draft list updated on the site, those days seemed to have gone forgotten. It's a shame; bars that keep their drafts lists online should certainly be more abundant.

I had a Sierra Nevada Bigfoot Barley Wine (which seems to be about the hoppiest barley wine I've had in awhile, no complaints here) and multiple other members of my party enjoyed the Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA. I took a taster of the hand-pumped Ridgeway Seriously Bad Elf (seriously fruity) and was on my way. But as one of the more reliable beer-friendly bars in my general vicinity, I will certainly be back.

Keep an eye out for me in the webcam.

Next week, What's On Tap will leave the east coast, I promise! Check in on upcoming Wednesdays for draft lists from bars in Los Angeles, Chicago and Houston, TX!

d.b.a. is located at 41 First Ave. in New York, NY. www.drinkgoodstuff.com.

Tip of the Day

We can change the way we make eggs -- scrambled, poached, fried -- but what about changing the eggs themselves? Mix up your scrambling routine with quail eggs.
