Some new NYC bars we want to visit

Numerous bars have opened recently, or are about to open all around NYC.  Some of the spots we hope to include in an upcoming NYC pub crawl: On the Midtown East/Upper East Side border is The Jeffrey (311 E. 60th Street), another beer bar from the owner’s of Long Island City’s Alewife.  Further south in Manhattan’s Gramercy nabe is a new wine bar called Vitis La Vineria (284 Third Avenue).  Even further south on Manhattan’s Lower East Side, though not yet open (but we expect to be opening soon) Paulaner Brauhaus at 265 Bowery.  And over in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, we look forward to the opening of Dirk the Norseman at 7 N. 15th Street, supposedly a brewpub/craft-beer bar.  As always, we will have reviews of these spots.
