Brubeck is a Mongrel2 handler which makes it effectively a ZeroMQ Framework. But it is built with web serving in mind so I (I wrote it) attempted to also bring many of the customs we're used to with web frameworks to the Python + Mongrel2 world.

There are many python frameworks and each serves a different need. If you are a Tornado user but find the blocking / nonblocking paradigm confusing, you would probably get a lot out of Brubeck because it replaces the IOLoop (like Twisted's reactor) with a simpler system, eventlet.

I'm glad you think it's hip! It's only a couple months old.
