Pradeep Gidwani at The Pint Room -Panchkula Finding it difficult to catch up with an old pal or acquaintance over a glass of beer just because you don't like the existing bars in the city? Or because they are too loud and the dim lights make you feel low? Head to 'The Pint Room', a newly opened beer café at SCO 350, Sector 9, Panchkula. The café offers clients the widest variety and choice of ales and lagers available anywhere in the country and a unique beer drinking experience where consumers can pour their own ice cold beer directly from taps. Making fine beer as familiar and as accessible as favourite cup of coffee remains the aim of this place. Beer enthusiast and the man behind the launch of Carlsberg, Tuborg and Foster's in India Pardeep Gidwani, Coach and Founder, the Pint Room said, "My aim is to make The Pint Room the perfect place to meet, mingle and discover the intriguing beverage that even Noah made sure he could brew on the Ark-Beer!" Adding further about the uniqueness of the café and about the distinct interiors Gidwani said, "Unlike most other bars and pubs in the city, The Pint Room steers clear of very loud music, dim lighting and the nightclub vibe. It offers a relaxed meeting place where you can unwind with friends or colleagues after work or take a break between chores during the day. It is a casual meeting space over beer." Apart from wide range of beers available at the cafe, The Pint Room houses a huge collection of glasses. Each glass has a different technical feature which is used for different kind of beers. "Temperature plays an important role in the taste of beer and hence we have specialized glasses that keep the taste of the beer intact from bottle till you smell and sip it down," quips Gidwani. The café houses tap beers that include Weiss from Bavaria, Germany; classic lager from Belgium; Witbier from Belgium; Pilsener, North Rhine — Westphalia, Germany; bitter ale, burton upon Trent, England; and various brands from European Lagers, Bavarian Weissbier, Belgian Witbier, Lager from Down Under, Asian Lagers, Irish Stout and non alcoholic beer. http://www.sunday-guardian.com/young-restless/chandigarhs-new-watering-hole-is-all-set-to-serve-emerging-tastes-in-ale
