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.

Sticky small patches of lacing on the glass. Aroma of yeast, fruit, malt and spice. Medium to full body with flavors of fruity yeast, sweet malt, cloves and a touch of hops.

Can from Bayshore Beverage Sandusky. Pours a slightly hazy deep yellow color with a decent sized bubbly white head with moderate retention. Spicy earthy with a hint of yeast on the nose with lots of juicy citrus in there. Not as hoppy in the flavor and the yeast seems to take over. Lightly sweet bready with a somewhat dry finish that seconds later is filled with resinous bitter hops. This is a pretty good beer but with a few tweaks could be outstanding. I’m thinking a touch more malt backbone and some juicy late hopping.
