Is a Beer Factory in store for the former Spice space on 2nd Avenue?


[EVG photo from June]

The Spice location on Second Avenue and East Sixth Street closed at the beginning of June.

Now Goggla spotted a sign from the new tenant — Beer Factory LLC...



So the sign does say "store," so perhaps it's a retail-first operation (like Good Beer on East Ninth Street or ABC Co. on Avenue C) ... The LLC is registered to an attorney's office in Astoria.

Or maybe it's a wacky fake sign like Robot Daycare or a laundrobar (oh, wait that was real!) to throw off the neighbors and assorted bloggers to what is really coming next.

    thank god
    we don't have enough places to buy beer in the "east village" now.
    maybe this will be locavore, organic, raw, artisanal, assembled in china.
    can't hardly wait.

    what do you think the rent is here?

    My bet is on artisanal, IPA, non-GMO, beard and flannel plaid shirt friendly.

    There are only about 6 places to by alcohol within spitting distance of that corner, so BRING ON THE DRUGS! I maintain alcohol is a form of chemical warfare being perpetrated against the citizens. It is a dominator chemical that is an inTOXICant.

    The whole neighborhood is a beer factory.

    Your crappy car spewing CO and almost killing pedestrians is worse than any beer store in the community.
