Brick and Barrel

Brick and Barrel Brewery
On Saturday I had to drive up to Dodd Camera in Cleveland to pick up a piece of photo gear. After driving all the way up there I didn't feel like coming right back home so I stopped at the new brewery "Brick and Barrel". They are located in an old building on Columbus Road in the Flats. They only had three beers on tap at the moment - talking to the bartender(the father of the owner/brewer) turned up that they kept selling out before they could fill the taps - good problem to have. Hopefully things keep going this well for them and they can get another fermenter installed to keep up with demand. It was a cool little spot, cozy feel, the brewery operation exposed in the back. The beers they did have on draft were solid offerings - they clearly know how to make beer. There is no food but there are three nearby restaurants that deliver. They also plan to make wine in the near future.

They said there will be a patio out in front of the garage door in the Summer. A patio is a must for me in the warm weather...

I was drinking the "Ambitious Blonde" here. A great yeasty, spicey, banana-y Belgian-style beer.

They do real ales(or cask ales) too - that is one on the bottom right.
