The Licensing Board on Tuesday approved the transfer of the liquor license from NAH Bar LLC to 413 Bistro LLC. The Richmond Grill in the hotel has been closed for at least a year. Berkshire Palate opened on Main Street in Williamstown three years ago a family affair involving Paul Brassard and his sons Zachary, Nolan and Aaron. Paul Brassard told the board that the entire operation would be moving from Williamstown and a second location was being planned in Pittsfield. This is going be 413 Bistro, which is actually what the LLC has been all along, he said. But we won t be in Williamstown any longer. . . As soon as North Adams is open, like, pretty much the day we get the license, we ll probably be up and going within about 48 hours.
The Planning Board on Monday and the Licensing Board on Tuesday both approved the request, pending a final OK by the state s Alcoholic Beverages Control Commission. Attorney Lisa Adelman, representing OSJL Spirits LLC, said a 279 square foot space would be carved out for the retail area in the Curran Highway store and another 260 square feet would be secured and locked cage for when it is not on display. There will not be any coolers but rather wine bottles and six-packs would be sold off shelf. It is wine and beer and the product that we typically engage in sales, not solely, but the primary product that is sold are closeouts or a product that is specifically made for OSJL Spirits almost like your Trader Joe s brand, Adelman said. We have specific products that s made for OSJL Spirts.
