We asked our tweeps, FB buds, and friends about some of the best spots to get craft brews and that had the best variety. What followed was an awesome research project that led us to create our newest post for CBS Connecticut. We start at Coalhouse Pizza in Stamford, then head over to Monster B’s, then end off at Norwalk’s very own The Ginger Man. If you haven’t been to any of these spots and you love beer, prepare to love it more. Yes, start preparing now.
Here’s the leadin, along with the first sentences from each beer spot. Click here for the entire article, please. ;)
“Any restaurant can sell a few beers by the bottle and offer up a few beers on tap, but those are usually the kinds of beer that you can find at your local corner store.

To help you on your quest for that perfect brew, we’re giving you a guide to some of our favorite watering holes that have the best beers on tap and by the bottle. Sorry, but Budweiser just won’t cut it here. We’re talking craft, micro, and all-around-awesome beers. Pull on up to the tap and pour in some brew, this is going to be a tasty one.

Yeah, I think we both felt the same kind of way. We wondered, what can this place really offer? But, we were both really surprised at how amazing the beer selection and knowledge is. We’re going to get ourselves to one of those blogger meet ups, too!
