The Total Smith Street Immersion

By


Drink, shop, brunch. Next Saturday, June 18, we’re inviting you to do all three on the cheap when our roving, summer-long block party sponsored by Brooklyn Brewery comes to Carroll Gardens/Boerum Hill. During The Total Smith St. Immersion from noon to 6pm, you’ll find specials at over 20 shops, bars, and restaurants on Smith St. (and a bit of Bergen), including complimentary cups of beer all brewed here in Brooklyn: Brooklyner Weisse at 61 Local, East India Pale Ale at Angry Wade’s, and The Concoction (a new special ale brewed with peated malt, lemon, ginger and honey!) at Bar Great Harry. You’ll also find the Brewery’s brand-new cans of Summer Ale at Gowanus Yacht Club.

Not only is the immersion a chance to sample a few styles of Brooklyn Brewery beer, it’s also an opportunity to explore great shops, bars and restaurants in a neighborhood that’s not your own. We lined up plenty of incentives for you, including specials like 30% off at Home & Haven and complimentary bottles of Local 1 during brunch at The JakeWalk. (A detailed list of the 20+ deals is below.)

Within the stretch of Boerum Hill and Carroll Gardens spanning this immersion, you’ll also find a few of our favorite art spaces: The Invisible Dog, Muriel Guépin Gallery, and the Micro Museum, which is actually inaugurating a new stage for music, readings, and solo acts with a kick-off musical event on June 18 from 6-7pm. June 18 also falls within the 10-day long BoCoCa Festival, with a full slate of live music and arts (for kiddos too) scheduled in Carroll Park from 11am-5pm.

To be a part of this all-day bar, shop and restaurant crawl, you’ll need to pick up a free immersion card at one of two participating shops: By Brooklyn (261 Smith St.) or Brooklyn Tattoo/Urban Folk Art Gallery (99 Smith St.) starting at noon on June 18. There will only be 500 in circulation, so appoint a responsible friend to pick up yours if you can’t get to Smith St. early. (They go fast!)

RSVP on Facebook or email us to stay posted on new participants. We expect a few great last-minute additions. And be sure to join us on the remaining immersions this summer: We’re coming to 4th Ave. July 16 and Vanderbilt Ave. August 20.
