Description
Wine snobs be damned: Phinney's Brouwer's, with its 50 taps and 200 bottles (not to mention the 40 scotches) proves that beer-and-food pairing can be an elevated pursuit. There are literally hundreds of brews available, mainly Belgian but also ales from the Netherlands, Germany, Poland, and across the U.S. (Whisky is the second love here; the selection of single malts is sizable.) A hearty Lost Coast accents the rib eye and Belgian fries, the Piraat matches up with a robust Gruyère and ham sandwich, and the invigorating Duvel helps even slight delays in service speed by. In the converted warehouse, a surrounding balcony of tables overlooks a bustling main house with stonelike walls, concrete floors, a friendly level of music and clanking, and the determined eating of lamb burgers.
