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.

Growler on the RBWG 2014 bus. Pours a near clear deep amber with a tan head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has sweet gran, toffee and caramel note with hints of bitterness and bourbon. Flavor is sweeter with caramel, sweet grains and bourbon throughout.

Sample at the brewpub. This brew pours a hazy bright yellow color with a medium white head that evaporates quickly to an outer ring. Spotty lacing on the glass. Aroma of yeast, banana and wheat. Medium-bodied with flavors of peppery yeast, fruity esters and sweet malt. The finish is fruity with an earthy yeast aftertaste. Decent overall.
