Berkley Beer Company

Great stop for lunch and likely for an evening out. Went to lunch on the first really great day where the patio was open for seating. favorable first impression - the place was absolutely spotless. Somewhat of an industrial vibe, but tempered with nice woodwork and art on the walls. Ample bar space and seating with varied tabletops that can be rearranged for larger groups. hostess seating - both prompt and polite. Excellent waitstaff - attentive and unobtrusive. Beer on tap was a god cross section of everything the brewery makes. They stick to the knitting - only one brew classified as "experimental". So it's not a huge selection of beers on tap, but the four we tried were good to very good. Dinging selection is pretty much nit-picking in that regard - I'd rather have a few good than a lot of mediocre. Flights are four ounce pours. The menu features pizza ("coal fired" style but I think the oven is gas), sandwiches, an array of appetizers and several entrees for dinner. The wife had a Cuban sandwich and took half of it home and I have a Korean reuben. Both flavorful and worth the price compared to some other local establishment. The do some specials during the week and I believe they have live music in the evenings. Teh place is always packed in the evening. It reminds me somewhat of a small version of Jack's Abby. Nice to have a place like this less than five miles from my doorstep - good to see a small entity do things right.
