"Wow, First sip of the gridlock hazy IPA made me snap to! Was not expecting the substantial mouth feel from this hazy IPA with a great balance of oat malt and grapefruit hop. I expected it to be lighter. But it almost felt creamy. Not heavy, but much more mouth feel than I’m used to when I’m not drinking an imperial/double ipa. This IPA delivers. I’m buying in Long Island supermarkets and this baby was in ShopRite! 🙏 This one will join my rotation."

"I visit new breweries whenever I can and decided to pay a visit to Five Boroughs during my stay in New York. The brewery has a single indoor space with no separation. No food is present except bagged snacks. They have a table with boardgames and a small area for kids to play. It felt like the area is not insulated well as it was pretty chilly inside. The beers are just OK. Nothing more. They are not bad, but also they do not add anything new to the craft beer scene. The tap list is heavy in IPAs and has several European options as well. You can order a beer flight of 5 to try multiple beers. I was not impressed by any of my choices. If you do not search for craft beers, they should be fine - the beers are really safe and generic. This is a nice place to hang out with your friends, but if you're looking for anything new in the beer styles - you might want to look elsewhere."

"I discovered Five Boroughs Brewing during a walk in the neighborhood of Sunset Park. I veered off my normal path saw some folks hanging out outside of a well lit place and went in to check it out. The weekend vibe in this establishment is very professional and casual at the same time. The taproom was absolutely spotless and filled with patrons enjoying themselves. I was there to late to take a brewery tour, but got the chance to try a few different beers. Overall I found this to be a great place to grab a drink and hangout with good company. They dont have much in terms of bar snacks, but you are encouraged to order or bring your own food. Totally looking forward to returning soon."

"Large tap room and a 30-barrel brewing facility located in an old steel factory. 12 house-brewed beers on tap, served as a full or half pour to stay, and in growlers to go. Prices starting at $5. Complete with an elevated stage for live performances and a gift shop. Oh and it's dog friendly!"
