Profile

This inviting basement brew bar has a gourmet secret. In addition to dark-wood tables, beer regalia, and 50 brands of mostly German, Belgian and Brooklyn suds, the dive has a tiny hot-plate-equipped kitchen turning out seasonal, locavore grub.

Welcome bar-food liberties include nightly whims like parchment-baked “octopus confit” and razor clams steamed in sake and cider.
