Every bar we track

All 3264 bars in our NYC beer-price database, grouped by neighborhood and sorted cheapest-first. These are real beer prices, accurate to the best of our knowledge — but a "beer" means whatever that bar pours, so sizes vary. Prices change often, so call ahead. Prefer the live view? Open the map.

This directory is for browsing and checking details, rather than a definitive ranking of identical pours. A listed price may be for a can, bottle, draft, or a happy-hour special; read the note and source on each card before making a trip.

Lei

$60.00

15-17 Doyers St, New York, NY 10013, USA

Lei ("Chinatown Wine") is primarily a natural-wine bar, but its official wine list PDF includes a dedicated "Lambic" section (page 55 of 56) that lists actual beer: spontaneously-fermented lambic/farmhouse beers from Brasserie des Voirons (Bourgeons de Sapin, Sureau, Pinot Noir x2, Bitter Orange, Chenin, Framboise, Terre, Aligoté — all $60) and Cantillon (Vigneronne, Saint Lamvinus — both $100). $60 is the cheapest beer on the menu. The source does not specify bottle size, so per the task's serving-size fallback the $60 figure is reported as the standing bottle/serving price for the cheapest beer rather than an assumed pint.
