Beer lovers get the short end of the stick in this town, especially if said lover is looking to grab a cold one in an establishment that doesn't involve styrofoam cups or dirty sawdust-covered floors. For those afflicted with the lack-of-sleek-beer-hall blues, here's the antidote you've been looking for: reBar. Tucked away in a revamped factory loft space in DUMBO (is there any other kind, really?), the atmospherically sexy reBar has over 15 beers on tap, plus all the bottled American microbrews and Belgian ales you could hope for — and for your companions who may not be so hep to the hops, there's an extensive list of wines by the glass, featuring organic and bio-dynamic varietals. A tapas menu is also available.
