Top Hops Beer Shop

"This shop/bar is a craft beer nerd’s dream (the walls are lined with fridges of six-packs), but it’s a fun place to hang even if you don’t know the difference between an I.P.A. and a Pilsner. We also appreciate any bar that takes its hygiene seriously – Top Hops marks each draft beer with the date that the line was last cleaned. Which basically makes us never want to drink draft beer anywhere else." - katherine lewin, hillary reinsberg

"This Essex Market beer shop has cans available for pick-up and delivery from 2pm to 7pm daily. To place an order, call 917-261-2561 or send them an email at deliveries@tophops.com." - nikko duren

"Between the sheer variety of options and the friendly staff to help you figure out what you like, Top Hops Beer Shop on the LES is the ultimate gateway beer bar experience. Even if you’re savvy enough to recognize the taste of galaxy hops, we’d still recommend asking the staff what they’re currently excited about. Considering there are 700 cans and bottles to choose from (not including whatever’s on draft), you might want some help narrowing it down." - hannah albertine, bryan kim, matt tervooren

"Top Hops is set to close its flagship beer store on April 18. Despite the closure, the business is actively looking for a new location in the neighborhood." - Luke Fortney

"Essex Market’s bottle shop and tasting counter is delivering within a two-mile radius. The selection at Top Hops includes local favorites from Grimm, Other Half, Brooklyn Brewery, and Six Point.

Orders can be placed through Top Hops’s online store, grocery delivery service Mercato, or through Drizly." - Luke Fortney
