Brooklyn Brewery 'Tour'

I got up early one Saturday morning and went to see the All Blacks vs England game @ Baker Street bar. Then I went back to the apartment before making my way to Brooklyn Brewery for their tour which just involved a worker standing between a couple of vats talking about how beer is made and a history of the Brooklyn Brewery. It wasn't overly educational tho you had an opportunity to ask questions if you had any.
What was quite good for the locals is the drinking area- they had a fairly decent sized 'bar' with tables where people could sit and people could BYO their own food or order from some of the local joints that had menus near the entrance. It was very popular and therefore very hard to find a seat.
Anyway, I'd bought 6 tokens ($20) before the 'tour' and I had to do something with them didn't I?
I cued for ages and got a Pilsner and a Wheat beer which were both solid.
I cued again and got the East India Pale Ale and the Blast which were good aswell.
On the way out I got 2 t-shirts.
