Times' Brooklyn Brewery Typo Leads To Huge Coney Backlash

Times' Brooklyn Brewery Typo Leads To Huge Coney Backlash

Yesterday the Times' City Room blog reported that Brooklyn Brewery was rumored to be negotiating to open a beer hall in Phony Island -- which is what we're calling it from now on, thank you very much. The Post also wrote today that "sources said" Brooklyn Brewery was the favorite to operate a beer garden. But don't boycott the brewery just yet: An operations employee there, Brian Dochney, tells us (and we believe him) that it's absolutely not true, and indeed all mention of Brooklyn Brewery has mysteriously disappeared (without a correction) from the City Room post. "The article was supposed to read a Brooklyn brewery, not the Brooklyn Brewery," he says.
