This Month’s Beer Release Roundup
February is a rough month. It is that point in the year where I’m definitely done with winter, but winter is most certainly not done with me. It’s cold, snowy and we spend a lot of time locked indoors because of it. One of the good things that comes from that, though is that I tend to spend a little more time cracking open some packaged beer, and lucky for us there’s a ton of it to try.
This is a list that I put out each month in an attempt to keep track of all the packaged beer releases here in Cincinnati. That’s quite a daunting task some months with how many beers are hitting taprooms and shelves across town. With that being said, then, you’ll understand if you see something that is missing, or isn’t quite right, right? If you do, please shoot me a message and let me know!
