We decided on Beer Revolution to celebrate IPA Day, and they had lots of options to fulfill our hop-head cravings.
On Thursday evenings from 4-6pm, they have a deal called 4 for 4. 4 appys - pretzels, small pizza, ribs and truffle fries were on for $4. 4 different beers as well as a red & white house wine were also on for $4. We took full advantage of the drink specials, and shared the pretzel appy. The pretzels were soft, buttery and salty. The dipping sauce was a tasty mustard aioli. Yum!
We shared a bunch of different 10x10" pizzas. The slices are cut into squares, and all of the topping options are dramatically unique... They aren't attempting to be traditional in any way!
- Hot Wing pizza (Grilled chicken, hot sauce, carrot, celery, mozzarella, gorgonzola, peppercorn ranch) was one of my favorites. It could have used a bit more chicken, but the hot sauce was flavorful and the gorgonzola wasn't overly pungent. Blue-cheese haters don't need to be afraid of this one.
- Blackened Saddle (Blackened steak, bacon, banana peppers, white cheddar, mozzarella, crispy onions, cajun remoulade, horseradish aioli, seasoned arugula) was another one of my favorites. It had a tiny amount of heat, and the arugula balanced the richness of the other toppings. Yum!
- Junior Boy (Prosciutto, grilled pineapple, roasted jalapnos, smoked cheddar, maple syrup, marinara sauce) is a spicy-Hawaiian lovers dream. If you are sensitive to spice: stay away, because this one has some serious kick if you happen to grab a slice with a few jalepenos! The maple and pineapple help to balance the kick of heat.
- Newton (Black mission figs, prosciutto, buffalo mozzarella, pecorino, basil, marinara sauce) was really different and great for the sweet & savory lovers at our table. Definitely a good one to try a slice of.
These pizzas were substantially different than anything I've had in town. They certainly aren't even close to authentic Italian, but I'll be back for sure!
