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.

Sample at the Brews Cafe "Spring Forward" beer festival on 03/09/2013: This brew is a mostly clear amber-gold color with a medium off-white head that dissipates steadily. Strings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of citrus, hops and malt. Medium body with a moderately bitter hops character and notes of grapefruit and toasted malt. The finish is hoppy with a fruity aftertaste. Above average overall.
