The Scene – There are a few standard notions of what exactly constitutes a good neighborhood bar. Ideally, it's got a convivial, comfortable air, friendly bartenders, decent drafts and an eclectic jukebox and a couple of bar snacks. Envy the denizens of the Atlantic Avenue area, because the Brazen Head has all that in spades, plus some truly stellar extras. – – The Draw – The atmosphere is corner pub updated with Brooklyn small-batch fetishism. Careful touches such as posted keg-change dates and a rotating selection of luscious hand-pulled ales give hops enthusiasts…

I lost my pet
by Redheadedmidget
I was there the night the bartender who always smiles alot was working. I put my pet waterbug on the bar to give him a little drink and he hopped over the bar and scurried away. I have not seen him since.
- Pros: Great Beer selection
- Cons: there are no women here

A real disappointment.
by amvnyc1978
Dropped by on the night of August 16, 2008 after watching "Tropic Thunder" at the UA Court Street. What a let down from other reviews I've read elsewhere. It was a tiny space, with an awkward layout and very uncomfortable wooden lounge seating. On the night we were there, there was a general lack of decent seating altogether. The bar is understaffed/overworked and the only bartender that night was frazzled; warm and gracious at first, but then pushy about a tip for one bottle of beer and one glass of Cabernet. Ruined the mood of the evening. We finished our drinks and gladly moved on to one of the other numerous bars on Atlantic Avenue.
- Pros: Ambience
- Cons: Service
