The cidery section will offer\u00a0curated flights of New York cider, including pours of\u00a0still, dry, semi-dry and pet-nat sparkling cider. Over at the winery, you can explore vino selections hailing from\u00a0Long Island\u2019s North Fork region, which you can enjoy by glass, by flight or alongside some tasty charcuterie. (There are also\u00a0winery tours and tastings experiences available if you really want to get your\u00a0oenophilic freak on.)\u00a0<\/p>\n

As for the upcoming distillery, which is set to debut later this year, the operation will produce a large line of small-batch spirits, from gin to whiskey and every boozy bottle in between.\u00a0<\/p>\n

All of that alcohol requires food to pad your belly (and stave off your hangover), and the Barrel Yard will take care of\u00a0those drunchies courtesy the nearby revival of Lundy’s restaurant, which is also owned by The Red Hook Barrel Yard founder Mark Synder. Here, Lundy’s head chef\u00a0Steve Mannino has developed a special “Lundy’s on the Waterfront” menu of crab cakes, creamy bisques, crisp raw-bar items\u2014basically, the exact kind of food you want to be snacking on while guzzling a golden-hour glass of ros\u00e9\u00a0on a North Brooklyn patio.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve been quietly working away down here in Red Hook to produce some specular wines and ciders from New York. We\u2019re now expanding the space to bring more people in on the secret and allow them a chance to discover the quality of what New York can produce from a food & drink perspective,” Snyder said of the expanding project. “Lundy\u2019s has long held a special place in my heart, so to partner with them and bring them back to the waterfront, continuing this tradition of good, honest food in a waterfront setting is really something to celebrate. There\u2019s so much to discover and explore here and more to come as the summer progresses.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Red Hook Barrel Yard will be open from May 9 at\u00a0185 Van Dyke Street, with hours of operation currently set at noon to 10pm on Mondays through Fridays.
