McSorley's Old Ale House (VIDEOCAST)

The AA Hour has landed in Manhattan!  The East Village, to be exact, where we'll visit the oldest Irish tavern in New York City. McSorley's Old Ale House has been serving up cold beer since 1854 (arguably). Get ready for beer, lots of history, even more beer, and a house-made mustard that will blow your sinus cavities out! (Bonus footage: my choice for the Best Beer Snack EVER!)
