WHERE: One Stop Beer Shop 134 Kingsland Ave (off the Graham stop on the L)I would like to invite you personally to the opening of my bar – One Stop Beer Shop on Dec. 20th at at 134 Kingsland Avenue, Brooklyn.
One Stop Beer Shop is designed to be a warm community bar. In addition to an exceptional beer selection, it will also serve beer mixology drinks. We use a variety of beer blends and in many instances adding quality spirits to creatively do more with beer. Moreover, a collection of signature cocktails created by top mixoligists from Moonshine will be revealed at the opening.
Any coverage would be hugely appreciated. Please let me know if you need more information for your calendar listings or broadcasting through your blog. I have attached the press release* for reference.
Thank you and look forward to seeing you on Dec. 20th.
I am pleased to announce I will be getting a sneak peek at One Stop Beer Shop before it opens. When this comes to pass I will share my findings here for all to see. In the meantime, mark your calendars Greenpointers!

From The New York Shitty Inbox, Part II: Open!
On December 8, 2011 I wrote (in this post):
But alas, our Parks “Advocate” (and Parks Supervisor) are not reasonable people. This is why we have a “pop-up park” on my fair burgh’s waterfront which— while purported to have been “ready” in June (per the Deputy Director of OSA) and available to Nuit Blanche/East River Ferry patrons in October— is still closed to the general public.
Well gentle readers, I have some very good news to share! The newly-appointed gatekeeper of Java Street Park writes today, December 9, 2011:
I am the gatekeeper of that park at the end of java between india st pier entrance and java. you can announce that it will be open most days, depending on my sleep/work schedule, from about 7:30am to about 6pm
Bundle up and get down there Garden Spotters! NOTE/CAVEAT: As I learned this afternoon, you can only gain entrance via Java Street.

From The New York Shitty Inbox, Part II: India Street Cats Poisoned?
Filed under: 11222, Asshole, Criminal Activity, Greenpoint, Greenpoint Brooklyn, Greenpoint Magic
I have received word that someone has attempted— and in one case, succeeded*— to poison the feral cats who call the end of India Street their home. If any of you, dear readers, see suspicious activity please call the police. Otherwise here’s what a commenter in the know has to say about animal abuse:
Poisoning Cats in New York State is a Felony
Punishment for this crime is 2 year in prison and/or a $5,000 fine
