Threes Brewing Gowanus
Threes Brewing Gowanus
Threes Brewing Gowanus is a brewery and private event venue at 333 Douglass Street in Gowanus, Brooklyn — our flagship location, and the largest of our Brooklyn event spaces. Four bookable spaces, from a 25-person dinner to a 250-person indoor/outdoor buyout. The centerpiece is the Yard: 3,200 sq ft of outdoor event space anchored by a 16-ft steel trellis wrapped in hops, ivy, and wisteria, with hornbeam apple trees along the south wall. In winter, heated tents enclose it entirely, making it a genuine year-round option rather than a summer-only one. Indoors, the Main Bar runs a 24-line draught system and full bar against warm lighting and industrial accents. Corporate planners book us for team offsites, all-hands, holiday parties and end-of-year celebrations, summer company events, client dinners and receptions, product launches, team happy hours, recruiting mixers, panels and fireside chats, and guided beer tastings as a team activity. Past clients include The New York Times, HBO Max, and Food Bank for New York City. Every on-site event includes a dedicated event manager, AV and sound system, a customized floor plan, all furniture, glassware and flatware, white linen tablecloths and napkins, votive candlelight, personalized bar menus, and personalized welcome signage. No vendor restrictions apart from our in-house bar and catering — bring your own DJ, florist, or photographer. Food comes from Grand Army, our exclusive catering partner: passed bites, stationed spreads, family-style mains, large party platters, and dessert, with vegetarian, and gluten-free options throughout. Beverage packages range from Threes draft beer to draft plus wine, standard open bar, premium open bar, and an all non-alcoholic package of mocktails, N/A beer and wine. Custom signature cocktails on request. The beer is ours — IPAs, lagers, and mixed-culture ales, brewed by Threes. If the team can't leave the office, we also run offsite events: guided beer tastings and full offsite bar service at your workplace or venue. Gowanus, Brooklyn 11217 — walking distance from Park Slope, Boerum Hill, and Carroll Gardens, and close to Downtown Brooklyn and Barclays Center. Reach out for availability, a guided tour, and a customized proposal.
