“We’re excited to welcome Threes Brewing to the NYCRUNS Brooklyn Experience Half Marathon family,” said Lastoe. “This event is authentically Brooklyn, just like Threes, and our mutual passion for sharing the sights, sounds, and flavors of Brooklyn connects us. This event brings the best of Brooklyn to over 25,000 runners, both on and off the 13.1-mile course, and successful Brooklyn-based businesses like Threes are a huge reason why.”

“Our spaces, especially our home base in Gowanus, have always served as a clubhouse for Brooklyn’s active and athletic communities,” said Zach Smith, VP of Hospitality at Threes Brewing. “We’ve had a natural kinship with NYC’s running community since we opened our doors. Whether you’re planning your next run or celebrating a personal best, Threes is about bringing people together to honor both the journey and the achievement. This partnership feels like a perfect extension of what we’ve always stood for—creating spaces where people who push their limits can come together, kick back, and find community.”

The new partnership with Threes is the centerpiece of the Brooklyn Experience Local Business Initiative, a NYCRUNS program designed to support small, Brooklyn-based businesses and the Brooklyn running community. Threes was chosen to receive the partnership valued at $150,000 from a larger group of worthy, small Brooklyn businesses. In addition to the official partnership with Threes, a dozen other Brooklyn-based small businesses will receive free promotional opportunities through a marketplace hub available to runners and their supporters.

Threes Brewing will be supporting runners throughout race week, including two events at their flagship Brooklyn brewhouse in Gowanus, just steps from the NYCRUNS Brooklyn Experience Half Marathon Expo.

Race week festivities kick-off Thursday, April 24, with First Mile @ Threes. Runners picking up their race bibs and shirts at the Expo’s opening day can stop in for a taste of Brooklyn and a great deal when they show their bib.
