Ohio Brew Week 2023

Happy Ohio Brew Week!! The week kicked off with First Call on the first Friday. Two of our favorite local DJs, DJ Barticus and Muchi Nochi, played music on the street! I met up with Sarah, Heather and Mario to enjoy some brews and tunes.

Cheers!

Then of course, Wednesday was my favorite Brew Week event, Top Deck Dinner!

Another delicious evening of food from Cutler's Restaurant paired with brews from Jackie O's! The first course was a spinach salad with goat cheese stuffed grilled strawberries and almonds, with Jackie O’s Gose vinagrette. Paired with Apricot Vanilla Perpetum sour ale.

The second course was a chili crisp grilled cheese with local gazpacho, on wild sourdough with wheat from the chef’s garden and Snowville white cheddar. Paired with Piazza pilsner.

We made room for more courses by taking a picture break!

Love these ladies!

We love Top Deck Dinner!

What a view!

Course three was 36-hour sous vide smoked beef tongue tacos, paired with fan favorite Chomolungma.

The fourth course was a Nashville hot chicken thigh with koolaid pickles and pickled onion on a house biscuit, paired with Mystic Mama IPA.

Dessert was a “dirty” tres leches cake with coffee whipped cream paired with Horchata Bourbon Barrel Brick Kiln. Everything was over the top delicious!!

On Friday night, Abby and I volunteered pouring beer at the Brew BQ. We had a blast!

And then Saturday was Last Call. It was rainy but that didn't stop us from having fun!

We were sad because Sarah F. was supposed to join us and she was taking too long! We sent her this photo in hopes of getting her to hurry up. She arrived shortly thereafter.

It was a great crowd!

Sarah and Sarah and I went to Mucho Funky at Casa after Last Call, to see Neal spin!

We normally don't go out very late, so you can tell that we are proud of ourselves and excited to be there.

Look! There's Muchi Nochi!

And that's a wrap on another super fun Brew Week. Til next year!
