Brewer's notes

Fresh citrus and stonefruit aromatics light up your senses, while smoothness, like a velour tracksuit, covers your tongue, and then disappears. Two huge dry hop additions featuring inimitable Citra hop.

Our philosophy and process are pretty simple:

1) Use the things that inspire us every day from the SF/Bay Area as the foundation for each new beer we make.

2) Inspire our merry band of super-talented brewing comrades (which includes our head brewer, the founders, and some of the bay area’s best homebrewers) to create new beers.

3) Just like in regular competitions, we pilot-brew a select group of the best finalist beers and ask visitors to the brewery to cast their vote for their favorite beer. May the best beer always win.

We believe that this approach will lead to some incredible beers, and we hope you are eager to help us try some of them.

Osteria Procaccini

The air was warm for December and with all that is going on at the office (I'm on vacation but there were some organizational changes), I decided to take a walk along Route 27 in Kingston. I had hoped to get some photos of the Kingston Flour Mill House but the river water was quite high and rapid and the path through the forest was under water.

I continued walking along through Kingston until I got to the little mall housing some local shops one of which is Osteria Procaccini. My wife and I had attempted to eat here a few times before but we always seemed to come by when they are closed. I walked in an looked at the menu. I decided to sit and order lunch - it was about noon - but then changed my mind and decided to take my order to go. I had a chance to talk to the wait staff about the restaurant. It's not a pizzeria. So what is it?

The restaurant's menu describes an osteria thusly:

Osteria: a humble village eatery where a warm welcome awaits you

Well, I think that's true. The inside is non-pretentious - a welcome break from the stuffiness of Princeton - and the wait staff were quite friendly and tolerant of the many questions I had. The restaurant is family run and from the looks of the menu, they take great care to choose local organic and fresh ingredients for the food.

So what did I order and how was it? I ordered Tino’s Margherita Pizza and ate half the pie. I saved the other half for my kids. I enjoyed my pizza and I'll be back to try the Ruchetta e Prosciutto. I expect I'll be FourSquare mayor soon.
