Yum! So delish, great gluten free options, and the staff was so friendly. We had a reservation during busy busy busy graduation weekend, and they were able to sit us right away. Great experience!
Super chill spot that almost feels like you are in a different city once you step inside. They have take out, outdoor seating, and have reintroduced indoor dining as well.
Everything I tried was delicious and very flavorful. Lots of Seafood, vegetarian, and gluten free items on the menu. Loads of different noodles and rice dishes.
Berlinetta is a European microbrewery in downtown Bridgeport, CT. High ceilings, understated decor and classic vinyl records makes this a comfortable place to call your local. Crisp, clean and well crafted these beers are well worth the trip if you are following the CT beer trail up I-95. Ample street parking is available but keep your eyes peeled as the brewery sign is easy to miss from the main road.
You can order tasters, flights, and full pours. At the time of our visit they had a 4 pack of 16oz cans of the Kolch available to go.
The beer:
GOLD COAST LAGER this amber lager is dry-hopped with Citra. Huge citra in the nose but not a juice bomb or bitter. This was the most popular beer at our table.
The WESTPHAL KÖLSCH-STYLE ALE features Weyermann malt and German hops with a lower abv this is a clean beer.
BERLINETTA ROSSO VIENNA-STYLE LAGER made from a combination of Vienna, Munich, and Pilsner malts with a fuller body but still ending with a nice dry finish.
GOLDEN HILL PALE dry-hopped with classic Cascade Hops
The VELVET PILSNER a Czech pale lager. The Noble hops were clear and matched with nice maltiness and dry finish.
HARD SELTZER is gluten-free and served in the manner of a Berliner Weisse in Germany where they often add raspberry flavored syrup. Today they were adding mango or passion fruit to the unflavored base seltzer. This resulted in a thicker more fruit forward seltzer compared to what you would get from the can sold by the national brands.
