Astoria Gastropub Offers Beer Tasting Road Trip

April 18, 2014 By Michael Florio

All aboard the Brew Bus!

Snowdonia Gastropub, located at 34-55 32nd St, is now selling tickets for its May 10 tour, named The Brew Bus.

Tickets, which are being sold at Snowdonia and on its website, cost $65. The organizers are offering brunch and two draft beers at Snowdonia–along with a 45-minute bus ride to Captain Lawrence Brewing Company in Elmsford, NY.

“The idea behind this is it will be like a wine tasting, except for beer,” said Matthew Callahan, Director of Marketing with Snowdonia.

Captain Lawrence’s beer is popular with customers of Snowdonia and that is why Callahan picked it for the inaugural tour. The short distance also played a factor. “It has a road trip feel, without being too far away,” Callahan said.

The brewery will offer attendees access to the tasting room, where there will be 17 craft beers to sample.

Snowdonia plans to organize brewery tours on a monthly or quarterly basis.

Twenty people indicted in Queens-based $4.6M vehicle theft ring after three-year probe: DA

Twenty individuals were indicted and variously charged in a wide-ranging scheme to steal cars in Queens, throughout New York City and its suburbs, following a three-year investigation by the Queens District Attorney’s Office, the NYPD, and the New York State Police dubbed “Operation Hellcat,” into the criminal enterprise based in Queens.

Some of the vehicles were stolen from owners’ driveways, some with the keys or key fobs inside. The stolen vehicles were often sold through advertisements on social media platforms such as Facebook and Instagram. The defendants are charged in nine separate indictments for a total of 373 counts, Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz announced on Thursday.
