Approach
The 1st Brewhouse is a bar located at The Corinthians resort of Pune and offers a dazzling view of the Western Ghats. It is situated in the Kondhawa region of South Pune and has a well connected network of transport, making it easily accesible. The airport is only a forty minute drive from here.
Ambience
As the very name suggests, this place offers a brewery and its own craft beers. The bar and restaurant has both an al fresco dining area and an indoor area. Walking into this place, one is immediately greeted with the scent of freshly brewed beer heavy in the air. The interiors are mostly adorned with wooden furniture, the highlight of which are the pitcher shaped chairs and the brewery accompanied by bar stools. It is dimly lit during the night time, which makes for a perfect ambience to indulge in the crafted beer. Outdoor area exhibits a gorgeous view of the resort and lush green mountains that make up a very calming ambiance.
Food and Service
This place is mostly known for its beers. It serves the Doolally hand-crafted beers created by the famous German brewmaster Oliver Schauf. The food mostly consists of starters and sides (both vegetarian and non vegetarian) that go along with beers and a few main course dishes as well. The menu also features some traditional German dishes like Bratwurst and a variety of other pork sauasages that come flavoured with rich herbs and served with grilled veggies. Both Indian and Continental food is served but they are limited, which is reasonable since its largely a brewhouse. A cherry on top is the cordial staff who are always ready to assist.
