By the end of this weekend, expect to find a new craft beer and artisanal liquor source in Berkeley. It’s called Northbrae Bottle Shop, and it’s a joint effort byGioia Pizzeria’s Art Kinsey andCafé Rouge’s Ryan Murff, in the space next door to Gioia at 1590 Hopkins Street. Up until recently this place has been the less-than-artisanal Monterey Liquors, and Kinsey tells Berkeleyside that they hope to reopen by Sunday or so as Northbrae, with a fresh coat of paint and a new product array.
