Rattle N Hum & Cafe D’Alsace 

To celebrate international IPA Day, two of Manhattan’s top craft beer joints are teaming up for a global showdown of Old World Vs New World IPAs.   Patrick Donagher of Rattle ‘N Hum and Gianni Cavicchi from Café D’Alsace are collaborating by offering New Yorkers some of the best IPAs from around the world!   French brasserie Café D’Alsace will naturally showcase the Old World brews and will have on hand 20 special IPAs such as Meantime IPA, Thornbridge Jaipur, Nogne-O IPA,  Evil Twin Before, During and after Xmas and Mikkeller Willamette Single Hop.  The restaurant will even offer menu items prepared with IPAs and the showstopper will be Beer Sommerlier Gianni pouring table-side fresh hop infusions.  Oh and all brews will be available for just $5!

Rattle ‘N Hum will be showcasing 25+ lines of American

hoppy deliciousness on tap plus a Cask Ale Festival featuring some really rare IPAs!  Patrick – who is known for always having his hands on the good stuff – once again is bringing out all the stops!   Some examples of IPA’s he will offer are Barrier Ruthless Rye, Undarum, Dunegrass, Oil City & Medula, Smuttynose Big A, Two Brothers Hop Juice and Stone Ruination just to name a few.
