"The big, wood-paneled tap room at Wild East gets plenty of light, but it still feels like the cozy basement where that one kid with the cool parents would pass around a six-pack of Coors—minus the Coors, that is. The Gowanus brewery specializes in crisp Czech-style beers, especially lagers, but the huge U-shaped bar at the center also pours IPAs, farmhouse ales, and sours. Get some tacos from Nene’s Taqueria around the corner, grab a board game, and claim a booth with friends." - molly fitzpatrick, bryan kim, willa moore, will hartman, neha talreja
"Wild East in Gowanus is open for pick up from 12pm to 8pm daily, but it’s also delivering to most of Brooklyn. Check out their Instagram for more information." - nikko duren

"Before Laksa Shop landed at Bryant Park, Lam hosted pop-up events at breweries like Wild East in Gowanus, and I tried to stop by some of those events only to find they had often sold out of her shrimp laksa." - Emma Orlow

"Gowanus is home to some of Brooklyn’s best breweries right now, including locations of Threes Brewing, Strong Rope Brewery, and Finback. On a tour of the neighborhood, Wild East Brewing is worth a stop. The brewery specializes in lagers and pale ales with lower alcohol content. They have notes of honeysuckle, Nilla Wafers, caramel, and cherry cobbler." - Eater Staff
"The big, wood-paneled tap room at Wild East gets plenty of light, but it still feels like the cozy basement where that one kid with the “cool parents” would pass around a six-pack of Coors. The huge U-shaped bar at the center serves stouts, lagers, and IPAs that beer nerds approve of, along with some of those over-the-top sours that have become staples of most breweries in recent years. Claim a booth with some close friends, grab a board game, and share a pizza from around the corner. (You’re allowed to bring in outside food.)" - Neha Talreja
