CHB Reviews: Der Schwarze Kolner

Fort Greene's beer garden is open, on Fulton at South Oxford.  I checked it out last night.

On the summer's first true steamy day, Der Schwarze Kolner was perhaps even hotter on the inside than on the outside, despite large, open windows.  It was also loud -- we wondered if the bad acoustics were attributed to the lack of wall decor.  But the prices were not too bad- I had a fancy filtered wheat beer for... $5?... and a kielbasa on a toasted roll for $4.  Both were delicious.

Not bad for being open for just a few days (dude!  cash only, again!).  But before I'd go back, a ceiling fan would be nice -- that is, if summer is here to stay,
