Moretti Lager

Image
This staple often found in Italian eateries without other craft options.  It's available at Joanne on the Upper West Side and in Tuckahoe at Casa Brusco.  Fine quality alternative to a light American lager for those hearty Italian pastas. 6 out of 10 Mambo Italiano's 4.6 ABV

Big Eye IPA - Ballast Point Brewing Company

Image
Big Fish?  Big Eye?  This interesting labeled brew is a solid scoring IPA, but doesn't break away from the pack.   Another entry from the San Diego brewery scene, but doesn't compare to the Green Flash line of ales.  Smooth, bitter flavor with hints of west coast hops provides a good balance with chicken, and BBQ beef sliders. American style IPA-7.0% ABV 6 out 10 Big Eye Fishes http://www.ballastpoint.com/
