2. Videology screens a locally-sourced mystery/comedy, The Confabulators (Monday)

3. Brooklyn Brewery takes over The Owl Farm, a bar we love. Presumably not by force, but we never know with these microbrew wars anymore. Don’t forget your beer book! (Tuesday) (more…)

We’ve previously handed out some free advice on how to break into the food business in Brooklyn, but there’s a ton of competition out there, so you can always use some more info. Especially if it comes from people who’ve made a name for themselves on the basis of their own tasty food. Tomorrow, Edible Brooklyn and the Brooklyn Brewery are bringing you just that, gathering successful foodies to dish on how they made it here. (more…)

If your liver is still functioning after three-month Hurricane Sandy-to-Drynuary holiday of sad winter intoxication, then you have one final chance to finally kill it off. The 5th Annual NYC Beer Week starts today! The New York City Brewers Guild has taken over 120 venues across the city (32 in Brooklyn) for all kinds of sudsy New York beer-related events through March 3rd. The big kick-off party is tonight from 7-10 p.m. at Galapagos Art Space in Dumbo, and we’ve included some hot BK events below. Just remember, when you gaze long into a beer glass, the beer glass also gazes into you.

We previously brought you news of Brooklyn Brewery expanding their operations to Sweden, of all places. Was it because Steve Hindy really loves Robyn, or wants to get in good with the Swedish National Bikini team? Both are possibilities, but the only confirmed reason for the move right now is that Sweden is the new Brooklyn. And not in a “Stockholm is cool according to Forbes” way. New York Magazine went across the sea to check out the scene there and it turns out everyone has beards, flannel and listens to Sigur Ros. Well OK, maybe they have more of a claim on that last one.

These are the kinds of people you want to watch football with

So what are you doing for the Super Bowl? Heading to a bar to watch it? Eating vegan wings in your friend’s apartment and gambling on every single play? Those aren’t bad plans, but we’ve been alerted to a new place to watch the game that just might blow all that out of the water: Brooklyn Brewery is having a private party with Tumblr and Food Republic. Ordinarily we’d all be out in the cold for this one, but they’ve decided to hold a contest with the prize being two tickets to the party. (more…)

Cornhole. To those of you raised on the coasts, it sounds like some weird, Urban Dictionary sexual slang. For those of you from Pennsyltuckyhio, you know cornholing is not as filthy as it sounds. It’s in fact a game where you toss bean bags into a board with holes in them. It’s fun, and since Brooklyn Brewery likes fun, they’re hosting, along with Five Hole Cornhole, their own tournament on the last Tuesday of every month, starting tomorrow. (more…)

Before it had a great brewing scene, Brooklyn had an even bigger one back in the days of our grandparents. But then some geniuses decided banning alcohol would be a good idea and the scene started to dry up and die. But now some enterprising filmakers are telling the story of how we went from Miss Rheingold pageants to nothing to Brooklyn Brewery setting up shop in Sweden. (more…)

Gone on any dates involving too many martinis and a traipse around the Brooklyn Brewery? Well, hate to break it to you, but so has everyone else in Brooklyn. So say the data miners at first date factory HowAboutWe, who’ve released figures based on helping setting up one millin dates around the country. The breakdown for New York? We lead the nation in grabbing drinks and going somewhere to soak up some culture. (more…)

There’s not much crossflow in cultural knowledge between Brooklyn and Sweden. Thanks to them, we’ve got Vikings, Swedish Fish candies, meatballs, Ikea (obviously), and this one songwriting competition about the G train whose winner was sent to Sweden. It’s not a very extensive list, but now we have a big bragging right that we can tag onto it: the building of a Brooklyn Brewery in Stockholm. Hopefully they don’t take our champion, The Defender, with them. (more…)
