Ohio Breweries

• sportchampps

  What are your favorite breweries in Ohio.
  
  Number one for me in four strings in Grandview. They actually just opened a area to sit inside the brewery and order a couple beer while you watch them brewing the beer. I've tried a few of their beers and never been disappointed. I would recommend the backstage blond (Belgian style blonde) and the Big Star ( a white IPA or any of their seasonals.
  
  Second Jackie Os in Athens. All of their beers have been great and they recently started selling in giant eagle in Columbus.
  
  I havent been to wolfs ridge in Columbus since it opened but I'm hearing good things.

  I'd have to go GreatLakes strictly because they make Christmas ale. Never had Jackie o's but heard good things. Market garden in Cle has some solid beers also.

  I hate GL Christmas. St. B Christmas is GOAT. Not my opinion, it is a fact.

  MadTree is in Cincinnati. I love their Happy Amber and the Gnarly Brown...and their PsycHOPathy IPA is fantastic.

  Been there many of times. Solid beers and the people that serve them are very knowledgeable with beers overall. They have a dedicated sour tap. This month they are featuring home brews on tap one day a week. They just upgraded their brewing equipment to larger tanks. I believe they sold their older equipment to Blank Slate here in Cincy, who makes some great beers too.

  I've been nearby and only in Weasel Boy once. I love eating at Muddy Miser's.
  
  I think I have heard about the hipster's coming around later hours.

  Haven't made it to MadTree yet, but I have had their beers. I've been to 50West a couple of times. Great food and solid beer. They even have a few one off beers you will only have once.. and for you Hipster Vinyl lovers they have a few. Nice outdoor area.
  
  Mt Carmel is nice. Nice views and a pond in the back of the brewery.
  
  I've met Justin at Listermann's/Triple Digit. Small area, but great beers.
