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.

Bottle from a trade with alexsdad06. Pours black with brown head. Aromas of roasted malt and chocolate. Big roasted malt flavor with bittersweet dark chocolate and some dark fruit and coffee. Full body with minimal carbonation and a slick mouthfeel. Thanks Brad.

Sample at Daily Growler UA. The beer is a clear copper-gold color with a medium off-white head that recedes steadily to an outer ring. Aroma of hops, citrus and malt. Medium body with flavors of resiny hops, grapefruit and malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a citrusy hops aftertaste. Pretty good overall.

Sample at Daily Growler UA. Pours a crystal clear pale yellow color with a medium bright white head that burns away steadily. Spotty lacing on the glass. Pineapple, wheat and malt in the nose. Light-bodied with a pineapple and tropical fruit character, with some herbal wheat and doughy malt flavors. The finish is fruity with a refreshing pineapple aftertaste. Pretty good overall.
