First Annual Oyster & Beer Festival In NYC Delights Event Attendees

The first annual Oyster & Beer Festival included unlimited samples of oysters along with other seafood, live music, beer, wine, and spirits.

NYC welcomed the first annual Oyster & Beer Festival at the Tunnel in West Chelsea this past weekend. The event featured unlimited samples of oysters, seafood, beer, wine, spirits, and live music.

The gamut of raw oysters at the event came from both east and west coast, including Empire (NY), Chatham (MA), Mantunuck (RI), Penn Cove (WA), and Bajamotos (Mexico), just to name a few.

In addition to raw oysters, the event served New England Clambake with lobster, clams, garlic, potatoes, corn, kielbasa, and red onion, as well as Southern-Style seafood boil with shrimp, clams, mussels, and garlic.

Attendees also enjoyed a wide selection of beer, wine, and spirits, such as the Pumphouse wine, which stores its wine on top to retain freshness.
