It’s usually quite a challenge to get the crowd to leave. </span> <span style="font-family:arial;"> </span><span style="font-family:arial;">There are HD plasma TV’s everywhere, and the draft beer is some of the best in the city. Great beer selection, huge selection of Irish whisky and scotch (should you feel the need to jump start your day), great food (did I mention the sliders), and the owner Dan knows how to run a bar.

Admission also includes a complimentary app’s buffet, featuring NYC’s famous Scruffy Duffy’s wings, chicken fingers, mozz sticks, mac-n cheese bites (really, who says no to that) and the best sliders (mini cheddar cheese burgers) in NYC.

I love this place. Philly needs more places like this. This is one of the oldest bars in all of Manhattan. Try to imagine walking out the front door of the bar and being right on the Hudson River. Because that’s the way it was back in the 1800s, when this place first opened it doors for all the dock workers and longshoreman. The original bar is still intact as is a majority of the original floor. This is a bit more upscale then we’re used to (its more of a place for a nice glass of scotch) hence it being stop #2 before things get real sloppy. All of the drafts are served in 20oz glasses and the Guinness pour here is second to none. </span> <span style="font-family:arial;"> </span><span style="font-family:arial;">On a side note, the doors will not open til 1pm here, so don’t plan on getting here too early. </span> <span style="font-family:arial;"> </span><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />Drink specials:</span> $1 off all beers; draft or bottle</span></span><br /><br /><a href="http://www.thelandmarktavern.org/"><img style="float: left; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; cursor: pointer; width: 120px; height: 188px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnxHpAkXAVkGOSJ_T0dKE81hQOeRQa1jtEDCy4MjHaN9ps27P_kdQgrz4vNWwuVxBkz-ZKcEwlNHWYghLI1Ay_4PXI-GZIm6bF0ely6UrsAC6wwtxR0Nri2p92F7B9ua-UJZfq2g/s400/landmarktavern.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5541565767863606642" border="0" /></a><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />Landmark Tavern</span><br />626 11th Avenue (46th St.)<br />New York, NY<br />(212) 247-2562<br /><a href="http://www.thelandmarktavern.org/">TheLandmarkTavern.org</a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Approximate crawling time to next bar: 5.5 – 7 minutes </span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">(3) Hibernia Bar:</span> 2:45 – 3:30pm<br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:arial;">Back for its fourth year (or for long as they have been open), you may recognize some of the owners from their days behind the bar at Scruffy Duffy's (a moment of silence please). Already quite popular amongst the Hell's Kitchen residents, this place is sure to be one of your favorites after the crawl this year. I make it a regular stop when I head up to the city. Plenty of quality draft to choose from here, but the Guinness is top notch. I guess Aidan’s days of keeping me off the wagon at Scruffy's have taught him a thing or two. And they have tater tots!! And Aidan, sorry about the timing, it’s possible to run the marathon hungover you know. </span> <span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />Drink specials: </span>All draft beers are $3, domestic or import beers (it’s tough to leave here)</span></span><br /><br /><a href="http://www.hiberniabar.com/"><img style="float: left; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; cursor: pointer; width: 215px; height: 56px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhy_BF32pX3ufdovBMJ8J4yam79YRZMkdi2WyNpTqYXrhv6ZKAHWE_Svh4MNFTuaMIJbz8M-1Wlw_vUu8m8jr9s_er7eDobBp1lharMbJbDSD1MwtO5nTh1PrScyvdGt_OnLHPp/s400/hiberniabar.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5671387333973881506" border="0" /></a><span style="font-weight: bold;">Hibernia Bar</span><br />401 W. 50th St.<br />(bet. 9th & 10th Ave.)<br />New York, NY<br />212.969.9703<br /><a href="http://www.hiberniabar.com/">hiberniabar.com</a><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Approximate crawling time to next bar: 5.5 – 7 minutes</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">(4) Rumors: </span> 3:30 – 4:15pm<br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:arial;">It’s the 8th year in a row for this Irish pub in upper Hells Kitchen.

You may remember this as BB Doyles from years past. Back for its 11th consecutive year, and slightly off the beaten track, this cozy 2 level Irish pub is located just north of the theater district. If you’re looking for a beer that’s out of the ordinary, then you’ve come to the right spot. The 100oz beer bongs are always fun, but the <a href="http://www.houseofbrewsny.com/pdf/Beer%20Menu%202011_15918.pdf">selection of beers</a> (both imports and domestics) here is as good as it gets.

Whether you want to grab a bar stool, or kick back on a couch, this is a nice after-work type bar that’s always welcoming. The food is quite good as well. It’s a popular place for soccer and <a href="http://murphguide.com/football/college.htm">college football</a>, so if you’re feeling a bit claustrophobic, there are two floors. Be warned that this place is a huge Nebraska hangout, and they have a game at 3:30. Expect a crowd. </span> <span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />Drink Specials: </span>$3 domestic, $4 imports, draft or bottle (but it excludes Guinness, Smithwicks, Blue Moon, Bass, Hoegarden, Paulaner)</span></span><br /><br /><a href="http://theirishrogue.com/"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 152px; height: 124px;" src="http://www.murphguide.com/images/irishrogue.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://theirishrogue.com/"><span style="font-size:100%;">The Irish Rogue</span></a><br />356 W. 44th St.<br />(between Eighth & Ninth Ave.)<br />New York, NY<br />(212) 445-0131<br /><a href="http://theirishrogue.com/">TheIrishRogue.com</a><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Approximate crawling time to next bar: 4 – 5 minutes</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">(8) The Pony Bar:</span> 6:30 – 7:15pm<br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:arial;">So you are 8 stops in at this point (maybe more should you have snuck of the beaten path). You’re in the home stretch. And you’re thinking about some food, I get it. Consider this place optional. It’s an all American <a href="http://murphguide.com/beerbars.htm">craft beer bar</a>. I just wish this place was open when I lived three blocks away. By the time we get there, it’s probably going to be crowded with regulars (for good reason). This comes to you from the same owners as Lansdowne Road and the old Scruffy’s. Pat and Dan know their business. If you like quality beer, then stop in.

Absolutely no tourists here, this “off the beaten track” Irish pub caters to the real locals of Hell’s Kitchen. The owner, Tommy, couldn’t be happier to have us back this year. And this is only one of two spots to have made the cut all 11 years. That’s impressive. Silly cheap drinks here. Think of it as an incentive to make it to the end. This stop includes a full buffet, so there should be plenty of food out for everyone to soak up some of the booze. We will also be drawing the 50/50 raffle here, so remember not to lose those tickets that I know you’re going to buy.</span> <span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />Drink Specials:</span> $2 domestic drafts, $3 imports drafts, Real simple and real cheap.

More recently, he added d.b.a. in Williamsburg to the group in 2008. Although d.b.a. is well known in the craft beer community as <a href="http://goodbeerseal.com/bar-profiles/d-b-a-manhattan">a great beer bar</a>, Ray was also very proud of their quality whiskey, bourbon and tequila collections. Hence, the bars' website URL was <a href="http://drinkgoodstuff.com/">DrinkGoodStuff.com</a>.<br /><br />He was the co-host (along with Jimmy Carbone of <a href="http://jimmysno43.com/">Jimmy's No. 43</a>) of <a href="http://www.heritageradionetwork.com/programs/47-Beer-Sessions-Radio-TM-">Beer Sessions Radio</a>, heard every Tuesday night at 5pm on the <a href="http://www.heritageradionetwork.com/">Heritage Radio Network</a>. They described it as an audio ale salon exploring every aspect of the craft beer world.
