Moonshine brings grit (the good kind) to Red Hook
Gabrus | June 19, 2007
As the name infers, this Red Hook bar is a DIY kind of place. Not in a pour your own rack whiskey and Shop Rite brand cola style, but in a good way. Moonshine may be a bit out of the way for all you Smith and Court Street-ers, but for us who live on the West-Syeed, it’s a quick jaunt south. Now that I have overly explained how to get there, let me get to the meat and potatoes, actually more like meat and beer of this place. Moonshine is known for its deals on cans. A bucket of 4 cans costs 5 bucks. Brands include PBR, Ballantine, Piels and all your favorite swills. If you had a particularly good day at work, you may want to upgrade to some Old Chubb for just two dollars more. “Oh god! If I spent seven dollars on beer, what will I do for dinner?” Well look no further my friend, Moonshine is equipped with two grills and a smoker making it also a BYOM kind of bar. Yup, bring your own meat. As if that’s not enough to tempt you, Moonshine also has a swell pool table and Big Buck Hunter. So next time you are looking to have a meat party just head on over, and invite me, because I love using meat as an adjective as often as possible.
Moonshine is located at 317 Columbia St. in Red Hook

Yes! This place is awesome. Who wouldn’t love bring your own meat!? Plus there’s a pool table! Great place to do a write up about, keep em’ coming.
As a fan of the blog, I was quick to notice that this “Gabrus” character has not contributed before and I therefore surmise this Moonshine bit to be his debut. To which I say - Bravo! I can tell by the wit of his/her prose that he/she must be extrmemly good-looking. And so I am on the prowl. If he/she has a boyfriend/girlfriend/roommate, they had better watch their ass.
Moonshine is superb. Not only can you bring your own meat, but you can bring your own tender.
Yes, I attended a literal “sausage fest” here a few months ago and the backyard, buckets of PBR, and playful Golden Retriever someone brought made for a fine afternoon.
