ROAD WARRIORS
By Nicole Zappone The Citizen
A restaurant well-known to local foodies and beer connoisseurs is coming to town. Hop Häus, which bills itself as an "upbeat, casual craft eatery that features locally-sourced food with craft beer and cocktails from Connecticut’s best brewers and distillers," is set to open its third location in late March, at 9 Steele Blvd. “I used to work in Berlin for a number of years and spent a lot of time growing up in town,” said Hop Häus owner Mike Miller, a Meriden native. “I spent much of my youth here, so I know it’s a good town and geographical location for the restaurant.” See Hop Häus, A7

While Platt’s Thomas Gonzalez had the upperhand on Berlin’s Hiram Sepulveda at times during their match on Feb. 1, Sepulveda would come away with the victory, as would his Redcoats. Sepulveda pinned Gonzalez late in the first period of their 145 pound tilt and Berlin bested Platt 44-30 in Meriden to improve to 17-3 on the season. Bill Shettle, Special to the Record-Journal
Officials hear from cannabis entrepreneur
By Nicole Zappone The Citizen
The Town Council and Planning and Zoning Commission held a special meeting on Jan. 31 to discuss the possibility of welcoming cannabis businesses to Berlin. On Jan. 10, adult-use cannabis sales began at seven dispensaries in Connecticut; the closest to Berlin being Fine Fettle on the Berlin Turnpike in Newington. See Cannabis, A9
