| - Imagine that your sport fishing grandfather bought a loft space in the city, and invited you over for esoteric draft beers. That's the vibe I got when I entered this chic brew space on a Friday around 5 pm. Soft hues and warm tones draw you into this hip yet comforting space. Mounted fish taxidermy and retro lounge chairs are a creative juxtaposition against the cool, minimalist lines.
The beer and cheese plate perfectly pairs unique and unusual beers with their cheese soulmates. A tad on the pricey side, but you gotta pay for the staff and the space as well.
The lobster roll was not great -- all you really need is lobster and mayonnaise. No need to mess with that winning flavor combo. I dig trying new things, but this lobster roll was over-adorned with non-essential herbs of some sort, which masked the natural perfection of the lobster flavor. Also, the kale salad should be called, "romaine salad, with a little kale".
But alas, this is a four star review. Great space, very friendly service, off-the-beaten-path beer choices, and good (but not amazing) food are the strengths of this fine establishment that will definitely see this customer again.
