Careful touches such as posted keg-change dates and a rotating selection of luscious hand-pulled ales give hops enthusiasts little reason to leave their stools, save for wandering over to tables occasionally laden with Middle Eastern treats. Also worth noting is a solid range of single malts that may leave many... more

The Brazen Head scarcely needs a listing here: Anyone who would want to drink here already does. Although immensely popular with a neighborhood crowd of over-thirties (some way over 30)—many of whom look like it wouldn’t occur to them to check out the scene on Smith Street: The nightlife-seeking visitor to this stretch of Atlantic Avenue between Cobble Hill and Boerum Hill wouldn’t find the hip... more

Nightly specials don't skimp on quality. All pints (including hand-pulls) are $3.75 Tuesdays; special martinis are $5 Saturdays. Two bucks come off the best single-malt Scotches on Fridays.

The Scene There are a few standard notions of what exactly constitutes a good neighborhood bar. Ideally, it's got a convivial, comfortable air, friendly bartenders, decent drafts and an eclectic jukebox and a couple of bar snacks. Envy the denizens of the Atlantic Avenue area, because the Brazen Head has all that in spades, plus some truly stellar extras. The Draw The... more

I was there the night the bartender who always smiles alot was working. I put my pet waterbug on the bar to give him a little drink and he hopped over the bar and scurried away. I have not seen him since.

The bar is understaffed/overworked and the only bartender that night... more
