HUNTERS POINT — LIC Flea and Food will return for its third season this month, and will include an outdoor beer garden serving only locally-made brews, according to organizers.

The market will run every weekend starting April 11, with more than 80 vendors peddling food, jewelry, furniture, antiques and other items.

The flea will also feature a beer garden that kicked off at the market last fall, which will now serve suds exclusively from Queens, a nod to the borough's growing brewery scene.

Beers on the menu will include those from nearby Rockaway Brewing Company, Queens Brewery, Finback Brewery from Glendale and Astoria's SingleCut Beersmiths. Wine will also be available.

The market, run by publishing company Schneps Communications, operates every Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the corner of 5th Street and 46th Avenue, a lot owned by plastics manufacturer Plaxall.
