We'll have plenty of New York Comic Con's official beer, Brooklyn Defender IPA, as well as Brooklyn Lager and Brooklyn Sorachi Ace.

The Defender is constantly vigilant, standing guard over all those who dare to create, to dream, and to drink great beer. Defender IPA is a bright, juicy, West Coast-style IPA takes on a reddish twist from a dash of roasted malt. Bold, fruity, hop bitterness and an intensely resinous nose lead the way into a dry finish that blazes the trail for your next sip.
Defender IPA has been a part of New York Comic Con for four years. Brooklyn Brewmaster Garrett Oliver is a huge fan of classical comics, even maintaining a collection of near-mint condition comic books from his youth to today. He made sure that the Defender was full of bright, sharp flavors and just a bit of funk to capture the fun and energy of comics and comic fans alike. This year is the first time that the beer will be available to drinkers across the country, and everyone is excited to be bringing the Defender to new locales.
Keeping with the C2E2 spirit, we're inviting guests to show off their cosplay skills and come dressed to impress with their favorite Good or Evil character. We'll have some games throughout the night where teams Good and Evil will compete against each other to see who will be crowned champion of the night!
