The trend of the craft brewery is fast pacing amongst the city crowd. Bangalore has got its one of the biggest craft brewery and brew pub, Big Pitcher located on Old Airport road which offers a wide variety of beers, cocktails, and mocktails. Big Pitcher has got an exquisite space comprising of six floors with an outlandish food and drinks menu. Each floor (Big Pitcher, Club Kahuna, Splitwood, Sizzling Street, Star Lounge and Studio 4121) has got its own essence of delivering a distinctive gastronomic service.
If you want to groove, want to enjoy the trolley buffet, and would love to enjoy sizzlers and sea food with customized marinate-Big Pitcher have it all for you. Let me take you through Splitwood – East on food, West on mood. As the tagline suggests, Splitwood comprises of wooden decors and the cowboy accessories displayed on the big wall facing the entrance gives the feeling of the west end.
As I have mentioned earlier, this craft brewery has got a diverse menu, hence I preferred, to begin with, the cocktails and mocktails along with some crunchy starters.
- Tricky Mickey and Good Omen: If you want a refreshing drink with sweetening effects, Good Omen and Tricky Wicky would be a good choice.
- Mango Bango: Prepared by crushing ice, mango puree, aam panna for all the mango lovers, this mango season.
