Basil T’s Brewery and Italian Restaurant is preparing for the a celebration of local restaurants, Jersey Shore Restaurant Week. Running from November 5 -14, 2010, Jersey Shore Restaurant Week gives locals and visitors a taste of the food and drink offerings of various New Jersey restaurants and pubs along the Jersey Shore.
The first Restaurant Week in November 2009 drew 56 restaurants, the second in April 2010, 75. Thousands came out to enjoy specially priced 3 course meals at the Shore’s best restaurants and all Special Events sold out. November 2010 will be the third Jersey Shore Restaurant Week.

Basil T’s is no stranger to great beer and delicious food. The results of the 27th Annual Readers’ Choice Restaurant Poll recently honored the Red Bank brewery and Italian restaurant as it won best in Central NJ in both the Best Beer and Best Pub categories. The Italian restaurant in New Jersey offers six handcrafted beers (which includes a seasonal offering) by the Pint, Mug, Growler or Basil’s Sampler. Basil T’s is ready and excited to participate in this year’s Jersey Shore Restaurant Week. You can expect a full array of beer, wine and great Italian meals to be on hand during the entire event.

Brewmaster Gretchen Schmidhausler of Basil Ts Brewery & Italian Grill, one of the best bars in New Jersey, recently returned from a trip to Germany where she had the enviable opportunity to sample some locally-brewed varieties of beer.

During her stay in Bavaria, one of the world’s true beer meccas, Gretchen visited Wurstkuchl, a tavern situated along the Danube River . Wurstkuchl (pictured, right) has roots that date back to the 12th century when the location provided slow-simmered meals for stonemasons, dockers and crane workers.

Though now geared largely toward visitors, Wurstkuchl serves much the same purpose it did hundreds of years ago: providing its patrons with delicious food and drink.

While there Gretchen enjoyed Bavarian wheat beers, dark and golden lagers, and Rauch (smoked) beers. The tastes and aromas will serve as inspiration for future beers brewed at the Red Bank bar Basil T’s.

Never satisfied with producing anything less than the best, Gretchen is always looking for ways to improve an already award-winning selection of beers at Basil Ts.
