About Us
Top Hops is a unique beer obsessed hybrid — We're a tasting bar meets well curated brick and mortar/online retail shop with depth and breadth. We are a beer classroom and event space. We are based in the Essex Market, a historic landmark in New York City's vibrant Lower East Side neighborhood. And, just in case you want to take your libations on the road, we recently introduced a mobile extension of our curated craft beer business, The Top Hops Tap Truck. Our three wheeled baby is available for Private Event Rental. We guarantee toothy grins when we pull up and the libations start to pour.
We are the kind of place where seasoned beer geeks can share their enthusiasm and new craft beer fans can learn a bit more about the magic combination of hops, yeast, barley, and water. Join us at our tasting bar where you can sample our freshly poured beer or try a bottle from the fridge, all while enjoying some beer-friendly bites and camaraderie with fellow beer lovers. Interested in learning more about beers with a tasting event? Look no further.
More than a bottle shop, more than a craft beer bar, Top Hops is a celebration of beer and the good people who brew it. We foster an appreciation for the craft and history of great beer. We are merchants AND advocates.
