Hey ho, let's espresso? Marky Ramone stopped by ¡Adios Amigos! on the Bowery at First Street Friday evening for the launch of Bowery Beat, a new coffee collaboration with Dark Matter Coffee.
The roast is available here in bagged coffee and super-caffeinated cold brew cans ... you can also pick it up online.
According to the organizers, a portion of proceeds from Bowery Beat will support the Bowery Beat Foundation, a recently developed nonprofit initiative focused on preserving and expanding access to music education in public schools, particularly in the face of proposed cuts to arts funding.
Friday’s event included limited-edition Bowery Beat holiday tins and a Q&A between Ramone and New Noise Magazine (below with the Dark Matters team)...

Ramone also graciously chatted with fans and posed for photos.
¡Adios Amigos! (the name from the 14th and final studio record by the Ramones) celebrated its first anniversary here earlier this month.
Marky Ramone joined the Ramones in 1978. Over the course of his two stints with the band, he played some 1,700 shows and recorded 10 studio albums.
