Brewery cats and the Grateful Dead highlight this week’s News & Brews.
After a run of (mostly) malty fall beers, the switch was made this week to a classic golden ale — Seventh Son’s Assistant Manger, named for the brewery’s beloved brewery cat. Did the can art play a role in the beer’s selection? Of course it did.
In addition to praising the aforementioned can art of Seventh Son and other local brewers, this week’s talk dives a little bit into wet hopped beers and rotating hop IPAs, spurred by Columbus Brewing Co.’s recent decision to dump a batch of a popular seasonal IPA that didn’t meet its standards.
Columbus Business First is launching a Grateful Dead Networking meet-up, the first of which will be Tuesday Oct. 29 at Columbus Brewing.
News-wise Land-Grant Brewing has an interesting collaboration beer, Saucy Brew Works provided and update on its Harrison West brewpub and one of Ohio’s largest wineries has a new Columbus-based owner whose name might ring a bell.
In News & Brews great tradition of plugging podcasts that aren’t our own, Office Ladies gets a shout-out this week before the discussions turns toward Millennial love for The Office television show, but otherwise tangents mostly stick to the topic of local alcohol news.
