Description
Platform was founded in 2014 on the premise that collaboration should be at the cornerstone of everything that we do. Whether it be with pro brewers, the home brewing world or a variety of other industries, beer is special and should be shared.
From humble beginnings, brewing on a 3 bbl brewhouse in Cleveland, Platform has expanded to a second Tasting Room in Columbus, a Production Facility in Cleveland, a Cincinnati Tasting Room named LOCOBA and a Sour Beer Facility named Phunkenship

We brew high-quality craft beers for sale in our tasting rooms and distribute throughout Ohio. Expect a mix of ever-changing styles inspired by beer trends.

Sample at the Columbus taproom during the "Peach Fog Hazy IPA Release!" on 04/08/2017. The beer is a hazy orange-gold color with a medium off-white head that diminishes gradually to a film. Small patches of lacing on the glass. The aroma consists of peach, hops and malt. Medium body with flavors of citrusy hops, peach and biscuit malt. The finish is fruity with a peach and hops aftertaste. Pretty good overall.

Nondescript gray and white can, considering the stupid labels I’ve seen, this is refreshing to the eye. Smells like slightly malty pale lager. Decent co2. Medium sharp pilsner bite that doesn’t get on your nerves. Yes, like many other craft pale pils lagers. Not bad overall. Somewhat refreshing after a little yard work. From a pittsburgher’s point of view, I can appreciate the preamble.
