The beer that Steve and I had was the Red Band which is a lager which I enjoy the majority of the time. Flavors to find with hopefully fun involved are malty, sweet (a natural sweetness probably from the flaked corn involved), hoppy, crisp and clean in the finish. Typical for this beer type it was light bodied also. Swag was indeed purchased here as I knew the likelihood of this happening was high and I got a very nifty t-shirt from the transaction.

It seemed like a risky choice but it is in the top risotto favors I've ever had. I was shocked at how fantastic it was. The egg roll burger was a special, that was also so good. Our service was perfection, I almost don't like going out to eat anymore because service is so poor everywhere. But this place delivered in every single way. Oh ya... and the beers were good That's why we came.

Food came out promptly despite it being late on a Friday night. Highly recommend the Brussels sprouts appetizer (not pictured unfortunately) as they definitely do them differently than most places and they were great. Burgers were fresh and delicious. Wife always has her's without the bun and asked for jalapeños which were also fresh and very HOT!

Honey buzz(taste no honey-dont let the name fool ya), Have a nice IPA and the west coast ipa (finish is not smooth). Yep I have tried some seasonals. Just not a fan.

Noble Beast is a great brewery in downtown Cleveland. This one felt more like warehouse breweries all over, but with its own urban jungle vibe of vines growing down from every skylight. Their beer is great quality, which is easy to see by all the awards they have displayed behind the bar akin to high school championship banners. The place was packed, but the bartenders were so nice, even chatting a while about the place. They have seating inside with picnic tables, small tables and chairs, and standing room around the bar and on the back small porch. Just based on our visit for one beer each, I look forward to returning sometime soon!

There was ample parking and the farm was easy to find. The beer was very refreshing considering the heat. Red Wagon is a unique experience in that you are sitting at a bar with a farmer's market right next to you. They offered typical bar food. My partner ordered a flatbread and it was good. The IPA was good also. The staff were friendly and helpful. You can also walk outside and order ice cream at the ice cream window. It is somewhat of a one stop shop.

She went for the pan seared salmon (sweet Thai chili, rice noodles, scallion, carrots, crimini mushrooms, snow pea, Fresno peppers and a sesame glaze. I went for the center cut pork chops (bacon balsamic glaze) with brown rice and asparagus. Great location in the middle of town. Big place, but pretty busy all the time. Excellent service (forgot her name, sorry) but definitely a great place to stop if/when you're in the area.

We had reservations during Oberlin's graduation weekend. The reservations were easy to get, we were seated promptly, service was attentive, and the menu had a large enough range for everyone in our party.

As you enter, it seems like more of a farm. They have ample free parking and overflow parking so that's never going to be an issue. As you approach the main building, they have signs about the different outdoor areas and whether they're open or closed based on the weather or events. If you explore the grounds, you'll find concert areas, forested areas, fields, places to play games and be outside. The large patio area also has more bars and an event space. Plus the namesake twin oasts outside that serve as fire pit relaxation areas to drink as well. We went inside, which was also super busy for a weekday. There are lots of campgrounds and other lodgings nearby, so it seems like a regional hangout. We each got flights at the bar, all the bartenders were friendly and efficient, even with the constant flow of customers. The beer quality is solid and prices are reasonable. They have a merchandise area near the restrooms. Indoor has bar seating, tables, and cozier living room like areas with big open windows to enjoy the outside on cold or wet days. If you're a beer fan in the area, this is a must-visit. Even if you just like nice places to eat and enjoy nature, this is also for you.

That added a nice touch to the room. I enjoyed the large windows in the dining room. The staff were nice and helpful. We don't get out that way often, but would stop in if we are in the area.
