“You may not know it, but Brooklyn used to be the beer-brewing capital of North America. Williamsburg alone was home to some thirty-four breweries, including the Schaefer Brewing Company, the Brooklyn Brewery, Old Milwaukee of Brooklyn, and Hipster Brothers Brewing ‘Company’—the first sarcastic-style beer to be brewed in the United States (thought it was preceded by Canada's ‘Meta-Lager’).”
