FAMILY STYLE. z i m m a n s . c o m 64 DINE OYSTERS B R I N E The intimate bar space at Brine was specifically designed to showcase oysters, which are shucked in the front corner of the bar for all to see. And they play it up, even devoting the month of March to "Shuck Madness," where participants buy cards to sample 16 oysters in four brackets, eventually naming one the best. Through- out the year, order cards have thoughtful descriptors, and the knowledgeable staffers are happy to recommend a libation, from beer to wine to cocktails, to pair with each delectable slurp. 25 State St., Newburyport, 978-358- 8479, brineoyster.com R E A D E R S' C H O I C E B R I N E PHOTOGRAPH BY KATIE NOBLE Brine
