Got Burgers? Brew? CT District Tells You Where

It’s that time of year again when it comes to summer eating, hamburgers and beer.

And the Connecticut’s Central Regional Tourism District (CenterofCT.com) is offering a free pocket guide featuring the best places for burgers and microbrews in its 65 towns and cities.

The “Burgers & Brews Trail” guide is a free brochure available in print and online at  www.CenterofCT.com. With information about more than 70 great eateries and breweries, it is a handy resource for visiting tourists and local residents alike, according to the district.

“America’s first burger sandwich was cooked up right here at New Haven’s Louis Lunch more than a century ago – and the restaurant is still going strong,” explains Anne Lee, Executive Director of the Central Regional Tourism District. “Today, a wide variety of restaurants in our region serve up fantastic burgers, from grilled to steamed to bison burgers to ‘build-your-owns’. Add to that, some of the finest microbreweries in all of New England and we have our very own regional burger and brew trail.”
