From the Queens Courier:
Queens will soon be home to its first brewery in decades with the opening of SingleCut Beersmiths in Astoria later this year.
The company’s president and owner Rich Buceta said that the new brewery, which will be located at 19-33 37th St., is a natural fit for the borough.
“Queens has not had a brewery to call its own in a very long time,” said Buceta, 48, who was born in Jamaica.
SingleCut will feature a Tap Room with beer tastings and a stage for live musical performances, Buceta said. Visitors will also be able to take home half-gallon growlers. Though there will be no bar on the premises, Buceta said he may consider that option in the future and will hold several events a year utilizing the 5,000-square-foot-space and its stage.
If construction stays on schedule, Buceta plans to begin distributing beer throughout New York City in September.

That area needs a brewery like it needs a hole in the head. Can't they keep AT LEAST ONE neighborhood in Western Queens free and clear of pubs/clube/cafes/beer gardens/breweries etc? There goes the peace and quiet.
Yes, yes... the peace and quiet of the neighboring sewage treatment plant!

It might smell, but it is quiet.

yes, there is one neighborhood like that - where Vallone and his cohort lives.
surprise.
@anon1: It's an industrial area without a house for a block in either direction. No better place for a place like this. Bohemian Hall, in comparison, is surrounded by residential buildings and a grammar school.
What's wrong with a brewery ? Good beer is good business!
