On November 17th, Brew City Grill & Brew House officially introduced their newly updated menu with a three course Cask Ale dinner featuring local craft breweries. Participating in the event were Central MA’s own Wachusett Brewing Company, Shipyard Brewing Company from Maine and Harpoon Brewery based out of Boston.
In a tradition of excellence that has kept Brew City Grill & Brew House on top of the “Best of” list in Worcester, Massachusetts, Brew City now features forty beers on draft and a phenomenal bottle selection exceeding 120 beers. The highlight of the bar experience is three newly installed Angram beer engines, imported directly from England. This elegant centerpiece delicately delivers the beer into your glass through the use of a hand pump. “As poured in England, it’s truly the most natural way to drink beer,” says co-owner, founder and genuine beer enthusiast Jerry Azzarone. “We spared no expense having this system custom built to suit out customers needs.” On a typical night you will find yourself amazed by the display of beers running through this hand-crafted system from craft breweries across the country. Recently featured breweries include Allagash Brewing Company out of Portland, Maine, Dogfish Head Craft Brewery from Milton, Delaware and Smuttynose Brewing Company out of Portmsouth, New Hampshire.
With the draft beer selection well covered and an ever growing bottle list, Jerry and his team are dedicating more and more time to the food at Brew City Grill & Brew House. “Our restaurant has a great reputation for accommodating the sports fan or the businessman, but we didn’t want to get away from the core values which have made us so successful,” states Azzarone, “that’s our family atmosphere and eclectic menu.” A trip to Brew City will have you amazed at the menu which includes items such as the ever popular Smoked Chicken Baked Macaroni, Grilled Mediterranean Tuna and Beer-BBQ Brisket. Be sure to try Brew City’s “burger bar concept” menu…there are over 38 trillion possibilities. Beer dinners will also be conducted on a regular basis to increase awareness about beer’s place at the dinner table. “Beer and food is the perfect match, sometimes people don’t stop to think about it,” he adamantly expresses. “That’s where we come in.”

A drive down Shrewsbury street and you will see some construction on many businesses creating comfortable outdoor seating. In the past, simply throwing a table with a couple chairs on the side walk would be all that was needed for “outdoor seating.” No more. Outdoor seating has really become popular in the city, try some of the newest outdoor seating (and we really mean that it is meant to be outdoor seating for comfort) at: Red Lantern, La Scala, or Flying Rhino. Of course, we anticipate many more restaurants to construct new outdoor seating as the heat begins to rise.
