Just tonight picked up a six-pack of Hebrew--The Chosen Beer: Messiah Bold. It's a dark ale, which I tend to favor. They went out on the packaging. The letters in "Hebrew" are shaped to look like, well, Hebrew letters. There's a picture of a guy I'm guessing is supposed to be Hassidic, although it looks kind of like Trotsky starting a rap career.
The flavor is strong, again, which I like. It's also strong enough alcohol-wise so that drinking a second isn't a great idea on a weeknight. Three and you're on your way to a lost weekend.
Pretty good, although I wouldn't start any beerhall putsches with it. (Too soon?)

Well, I just had to look it up after reading your description and I agree the He-Brew dude looks much as you describe. I like the idea of a Coney Island brewery. A few months ago I spent some interesting time reading about and watching some old (very old) video about Coney Island in its heyday. It was pret-ty wild - better than Disneyland for sure. As for beer, I don't drink it anymore but there are some excellent pubs around here should you visit.
From what I've seen, the Coney Island of old was just like you describe it. I wonder if that kind of thing is still possible.
