Brewery Profile

Bridge And Tunnel Brewery

In a New York beer scene with many neighborhood breweries competing for attention, this Ridgewood microbrewery stands out for its scale and backstory. Built from the ground up by its founding family in 2012, Bridge And Tunnel Brewery gives visitors a direct connection to a small producer rather than a large, polished beer hall model. A stop here is less about checking off a national brand and more about seeing how an independent brewery fits into the everyday fabric of Queens. When you walk in, the main draw is the beer itself and the sense of being close to where it is made, with the brewery’s recent recognition adding context to the visit.

Travelers drinking around New York City often look for range: neighborhood taprooms, small-batch brewing, and places that reflect the borough they are in. Since specific house styles and beer names are not provided here, it is best not to arrive with a fixed expectation of one signature pour. Instead, the appeal is in tasting what the brewery currently has available and understanding why it has earned wider attention beyond Ridgewood. Its Gold Medal and 2023 NY State Governor’s Cup, which recognized it as having the “Best Beer in New York State,” give beer-focused visitors a clear reason to include it on a Queens or greater New York beer itinerary.

For planning purposes, treat this as a straightforward brewery visit and verify details before going. Current hours, tap list, seating arrangements, food options, events, and policies are not specified in the available information, so the taproom is the place to confirm the day’s pours and any visit-specific details. Because it is tucked away in Ridgewood, it may be better suited to visitors who enjoy seeking out neighborhood breweries rather than those looking only for highly visible tourist stops. Build in enough time to ask what is fresh, sample thoughtfully, and consider the brewery in the context of its 2012 DIY origins and recent statewide recognition.

Tucked away in Ridgewood, New York, Bridge And Tunnel Brewery is a true testament to DIY dedication, having been built from the ground up by its founding family in 2012. This microbrewery’s passion for quality has paid off spectacularly, culminating in a Gold Medal and the prestigious 2023 NY State Governor’s Cup, recognizing it as the "Best Beer in New York State." Stop by to taste the excellence crafted by this celebrated local institution.
