Radegast Hall & Biergarten — a former candy, tobacco, and spices storage facility — is one of the more popular, and for good reason. A huge selection of quality draft beers that vary by season, Radegast also keeps their grill fired up, serving a selection of kielbasa, sausage, and pulled pork. Lorely, long in the Lower East Side, has also entered the fray, opening up a branch near the scenic Brooklyn\/Queens Expressway in East Williamsburg, and also offers a full German food menu along with 12 imported draft beers from Germany and wines from the eponymous Lorely region.
