Bronx’s Craft Brew Night Taps in Morrisania

Morrisania foamed last night with the Bronx’s Craft Brew Night, pouring NYC’s spring suds. Brewer Jay Patel tapped ales as 150 sipped, a $10 taste fest at a rec hall. It’s borough brews—pure BX vibe, pints hot. A kid nabbed a pretzel; a pro chugged IPA. ‘Bronx pours—this is it,’ Patel says, kegging stout. The room turned taproom.

The night’s fresh—March 27’s kickoff, it tripled since RSVPs, packing tables by 7 p.m. Patel’s a Fordham malt; last night’s crowd hit max—foam flew. A line snaked for lagers; cash buzzed—NYC grit glowed. Runs one night—beers ruled. #BronxBrew trended; Queens wants a pint.

Some griped—’Too hoppy,’ sniped a newbie, dodging IPA. Trash piled—cans rolled; swept quick. A rival’s pitching a Mott Haven tap, splitting kegs. Still, 200 stayed—brews reigned. Morrisania’s never poured so bold.

Patel’s teasing a monthly run, maybe a park if spring bites. ‘NYC’s thirst—this quenches it,’ he says, wiping taps. The night’s a Bronx win—grit meets gulp. It’s a beer bash; catch the next. Bring a glass—foam flows.
