Brooklyn Kura was one of the first sake breweries in New York, and for one evening it pours bottles from more than 50 producers alongside its own. Brewery tours show how rice becomes sake, while a DJ and courtyard food pop-ups keep it social. If you have only ever had house sake with sushi, this is a fun, low-pressure crash course.
What to expect
Tasting stations spread through Brooklyn Kura and into the Industry City courtyard, where food pop-ups set up for the evening. Brewery tours of the production space run through the night, a DJ keeps the energy up, and raffles give away sake classes and merchandise to a lively after-work crowd.
