Microbreweries have been sprouting all over the place and Big Pitcher was one of the couple that we had not been to. So on one of those Sundays when I had craft beer on my mind, we decided to drop in there. (map<\/a>) Five floors on Old Airport Road, I thought that was indeed a brave business decision! The first floor was closed during lunch time, so we made our way to the second floor. The place has a theme straight out of some old western movie, complete with guns, Chuck Norris posters and swinging doors!<\/p>\n

Our first choice of brew – Adjust Maadi – wasn’t available. In fact, they had only 3 out of 5 brews available. We asked for a “Czech that Pilsner – Wild Cat Slav Lager” and a “Sarava – Suspiciously Brazilian Witbier” to begin with. I liked the subtle herbal notes and the mild caramel flavour in the first. The latter had a citrus, mildly sweet mix that D preferred. Later, we also tried the “Kingslayer – Medieval Dark Wheat Ale”, but since neither of us are malt fans, this was largely ignored. It didn’t help that the minimum serving was 500 ml.<\/p>\n

From the food menu<\/a>, we asked for the Carne Espinaca and Captain Nair’s Pork Fry. They somehow managed to confuse themselves and brought us a beef version of the latter, which we politely refused. The actual order took a while to get to the table. The beef tossed in Mexican Pepper sauce had a mildly spicy sauce and well cooked meat. The dips did a great complementary job. The pork was quite spicy but we didn’t mind since we were also guzzling beer. We then asked for a Greek Buffalo Soldier pizza – feta cheese and fiery chicken chunks playing lead roles. But we didn’t really like it a lot, mostly because we could still taste the (raw) flour a bit. We were stuffed reasonably by then and despite an interesting sounding Rasmalai Chocolate Terrine, had to skip desserts.<\/p>\n

The service disappointed with the mix up, but was otherwise pleasant. All of the above came to a little over Rs.2300. I think the place really works well for larger groups because of the beer, cocktails and plenty of starters. Worth a visit if you’re in that area.<\/p>\n
