The Good Beer Seal was started in 2009, one year after the founding of NY Craft Beer Week. It's comprised of a committee of local craft beer professionals, including bar owners, brewery reps, and writers, who meet each year to nominate and vote on adding bars to the now 52 craft beer outlets in the metro NYC area that sport the Good Beer Seal in their windows.

Jimmy, the proprietor of Jimmy's No. 43 bistro located at 43 E. 7th St. in the East Village, is one of the busiest people in the NYC craft beer scene, organizing countless events, like last week's NY State Craft Beer fest in Williamsburg, and hosting a weekly live podcast on beer called Beer Sessions Radio each Tuesday at 5pm.
