beer on tap
$6 Pint / 60 oz. Pitcher $20
Moretti (italy) lager style beer with light body, slight bitterness and a touch of sweetness. easy drinking and mild
Wurzburger Hofbrau (germany) a bavarian pilsner in all senses of the word, this beer is brewed according to centuries old laws. slightly tangy, with a full, viscous mouth feel that fishes with notes of honey and present (though mild) maltiness
Allagash White (maine) a belgian style white beer made with dried orange peel, which lends it a citric quality. a little cloudy and a little spicy, this beer has enough backbone to stand up to strong food flavors while maintaining a smooth, light drinkability
Sixpoint Brownstone Ale (brooklyn, N y) subtle aroma of fresh baked bread, malts contribute to a roasty, nutty, and mild chocolate flavor
Sixpoint Righteous Rye (brooklyn, N y) the usage of moderate amounts of rye offers haziness to the color of the beer and a unique sharpness. malt notes are quite noticeable, and the hops are not overpowering. this is a full-bodied beer that matches well with a broad variety of foods
Sixpoint lil' Frankie's Pale Ale (brooklyn, N y) we are proud to say that we are the only the only restaurant that has an exclusive beer made by them, the lil' frankie's pale ale. our house beer is the result of a very scientific model based on eating and drinking beer (very laborious work) and we are quite proud of the results! nice snappy hoppiness, with an underlying spiciness and acidity that pairs with our food perfectly!
beer in bottle $6
Peroni Nastro Azzuro (italy) clean, crisp, light. this beer is perfect whether on a hot afternoon to cool off or to wash down a snack!
Tappeto Volante (italy) blonde lager from the outskirts of milan. crisp taste with nice body and slightly heady aromatics
Menebrea Amber (italy) award winning lager beer from the italian alps. fuller bodied than most italian beers with beautiful hops
Paulaner Hefeweiss (germany) unfiltered hefeweiess with tangy, light and fruity body
Guinness (in a can) if you can't have it on tap, the next best thing is in a can! dark amber body, with the classic coffee colored head. biscuity head, with a hoppy edge. big dark roasted flavor, full bodied and rich
