Description
Located in a former roadside speakeasy on US Route 50 heading west into the city of Cincinnati, Fifty West Brewing Company first opened its doors in November of 2012. Since then, one thing has remained the same. Every time you have a Fifty West beer, you know it was handmade in small batches with a focus on the four virtues we hold closest to our hearts: craftsmanship, tradition, innovation, and patience.

Clear pale golden pour with a thin white head that burns away quickly to an outer ring. Spotty lace. Floral hops, fruit and malt in the nose. Light-bodied with flavors of floral hop, citrus and roast malt. The finish is mildly bitter with a fruity hop aftertaste. Decent overall.

From City Brew Tours, canned March 14th.
It pours a hazy orange with a small head of foam that lingers, leaves some lacing.
The smell is fruity, peach seems vibrant and tasty, light tartness, light sweetness.
The taste is peaches, both sweetish and light tartness, wheat, pretty simple but packs good flavour.
Good lightish mouthfeel, very easy drinking. I like.
