On Saturday, February 24, 2018, NYC Beer Week began with an opening bash at Brooklyn Expo Center in Greenpoint. The well attended event featured 60 brewers in attendance with half from the New York City area. I arrived just after 6PM and it took me about 30 minutes to actually enter the center as the line was over three blocks long.

Photos of the event, which I covered for BTRtoday can be found in the above gallery.
