This is the latest in our series on the venues featured in the Brokelyn Beer Book. The Charleston in Williamsburg is a Brokester’s dream: a pizza comes with every beer.
THE CHARLESTON
174 Bedford Ave. between N. 7th and N. 8th Sts., Williamsburg, 718-782-8717
What it is: About as rough and tumble as a bar with gorgeous handmade tables and black-shuttered windows overlooking Bedford Avenue can be.
Why we love it: It’s the cheap-o haven that doesn’t feel like a cheap-o haven. Drinks come with a whole personal pizza.
Who to bring: People watchers, those friends who love to try to eat until they puke, a friendly partner to facilitate sharing a table with strangers on a weekend night.
What to order: Beer and pizza. Period. Make sure there’s parmesan and red pepper at hand.
Charleston fun fact: It’s one of the longest-standing bars in Williamsburg.

We’ve been keeping track of everyone’s Brokelyn Beer Book travels through the Twitter hashtag #BrokelynBeers (because drinking + tweeting = always a good idea). But Examiner blogger/photographer Clay Williams, aka Ultraclay, is more ambitiously tracking his adventures through The Brokelyn 25, with descriptions of each bar and some great photo slideshows to go along. He’s started with The Charleston, the punkalicious Williamsburg joint that slings free pizza and cheap booze. Read the rest of this entry »
[UPDATE: Due to popularity, the deal has been extended throughout August!] Fried food and beer go together: we know it, your old man knows it, the Brits know it, and even the folks down there in Bay Ridge know it.
Reader Allie passed on this great tip about Longbow Pub & Pantry in Bay Ridge which is offering a summer special: every order of fish and chips comes with a pint of any of their 12 draft beers.
The deal lasts through the end of the month August and is good every day, all day long. It’s sort of like a reverse of the pizza-and-a-beer deals we’re all used to (which is no longer available at The Charleston, btw. Sad face).
