Pizza? At A Brewery? Here's How Portnoy Scored Pies At This NJ Beer Spot Pizza? At A Brewery? Here's How Portnoy Scored Pies At This NJ Beer Spot
Pizza? At A Brewery? Here's How Portnoy Scored Pies At This NJ Beer Spot The Jersey Shore pizza tour continues. At a brewery. Barstool Sports CEO Dave Portnoy stopped by Alternate Ending Beer Co. in Aberdeen to try its pies. To be clear, the kitchen is run by Talula's, an Asbury Park-based restaurant whose website touts sourdough pizza. Portnoy, on the second stop of his "One Bite" review tour, said the pie was Detroit-style, and more of a winter pizza. "It looks heavy, it is heavy," he said. "It's good stuff — it's heavy." His final score? 7.2.

Pizza From Brothers' NJ Shop Leaves Crunch To Be Desired, Portnoy Says Dave Portnoy is kicking off another "One Bite" New Jersey pizza review tour in Old Bridge.  Barstool Sports' CEO stopped by Via Sposito in Old Bridge, where he said he had one day to load up on pies before his colonoscopy. That's besides the point. On to the pizza.
