The Bite:
Looking to score some local brew? Get served Sixpoint Craft Ale's latest creation on tap - the gingery, spicy Paul Saison ale - exclusively at the MoMa resto, The Modern. Order up a pint (SCA never uses wasteful bottles) after catching the awesome Tangled Alphabets exhibit. Or tour the Red Hook brewery and taste the stuff plus other hearty, bold beers, like SCA's Sweet Action blonde ale and the mellow Bengali Tiger pale ale. You'll love-love.
Why Care?: 
Drinking locally crafted, draught beer means heavy glass bottles aren't traveling all over the place, leaving a trail of CO2 emissions in their wake.
When summer hits, we crush hard on Sixpoint's rich, caramel-y Bengali Tiger IPA at Jimmy's No. 43 in the East Village.
Wanna Try: 
Sixpoint Craft Ales, 40 Van Dyke St., Brooklyn. Free brewery tours available by appointment. Paul Saison Ale and other Sixpoint beer available at The Modern, 9 W. 53rd St. (212-333-1220).

Cocktail Fact

Wimbledon used yellow tennis balls for the first time in 1986.

Small Changes Add Up

If 10,000 NY Biters chug a pint of local beer each day instead of an import, we'll save 224 bathtubs full of diesel fuel each year.

BOTTLED locally! Yes, locally bottled products are much, much better than imported ones, but we still need to remember that unless the product itself is local the ingredients could still be shipped in from all over the globe.
