A new season

Hello everyone! The new art season will soon be upon us with lots of free drinks and tons of contemporary art. Also, this is a place to review almost every beer that I come across and its location.

Last night was O'Hara's an Irish Stout on draught at the Bushwick Country club. This is a must try if you like full bodied stout full of flavor, which seem to be mostly chocolate. Not to mention this is an award winning beer since 1886, has alot of history behind it. So go and try this smooth stout.

Friday night, was the first time I experienced a Blueberry ale at the Public house. They have an array of different beers but this one stood out mostly due to being blueberry, it was a taste that I would soon like to forget. If you love blueberry's and ales this might be the drink for you. It was an overpowering taste of blueberry which at first was very refreshing but awful for a whole American pint. I was glad to venture in there Wednesday afternoon to see that it was being replaced. If you missed your chance to taste this ale, I will keep my eyes peeled for you all.

Enough for beer, I did get to see some wonderful realists showing last season, one to note was David Kassan's recent work at Gallery Henoch. David combined both abstract images with realistic portraits of beautiful females, self-portraits and well rendered drawings of all kinds of objects. His work can been seen online both on Gallery Henoch or atDavid Kassan.

Another realist painter to note was Yigal Ozeri: Genesis at Mike Weiss Gallery, if you never seen his work its amazing. He has an upcoming show early this fall, it should be a sight to see.

Gallery Openings to attend for the upcoming season.

1. Mckenize gallery - they always have scotch and very interesting abstract art, generally geometric in nature.
2. P.P.O.W. - you will be able to get your screw driver fix or a Cape Cod
