Drinks in Downtown Brooklyn

Six thousand square feet on Lawrence Street with the tanks visible behind the bar, a long list of its own beer and a wood oven turning out pizza. It opened as Circa Brewing in 2016 and renamed itself Sound + Fury at the end of 2023 with a reworked beer lineup, same building and same brewery. It is big enough that a group walking in after a show does not have to wait.

Mon to Thu, 3pm to 10pm. Fri and Sat, noon to 11pm. Sun, noon to 10pm

Up the stairs on the second floor above Gage & Tollner on the Fulton Mall, fitted out like a ship's saloon with brass, dark wood and a long rum list. It takes no reservations at all and runs first come, first served, so going early is the way to get a seat. It is 21 and over after 7pm.

Sun to Thu, 5pm to 11pm. Fri and Sat, 5pm to midnight
