So it's taken me awhile to write a review for Noble Beast, not because I haven't wanted to, I just wanted to get it right. So here goes...
Noble Beast is hands down my favorite brewery in Cleveland. Why? Let me count the reasons:
1. The beer. Shaun is unbelievably dedicated to the craft of brewing and it shows in his beers. They are all perfectly balanced and very creative. My favorite is his Strawberry Grisette. It's just the right sour level and the faint strawberry notes make it crisp and refreshing. With a ABV under 4 it's easy to have a few!
2. The food. Noble Beast has elevated bar food at a completely affordable price. Almost every time I go I get the veggie sandwich. It's full of fresh veggies on warm, chewy, grill bread. Delicious! Their wings are quite wonderful too. The miso honey ones are my go to and on Wednesdays they're $.75/a piece!
3. The atmosphere. Noble is located on Lakeside downtown across from Channel 3 and the FBI building. It's off the path from other downtown Cleveland bars/breweries so you find the crowd there tends to be more of the craft beer nerd type (my favorite kind of people). Most nights I've been there it is pretty chill and low-key. Tuesday's they do have trivia. They also have a small section of the brewery for hosting events. I can't forget to mention that the staff... they are all friendly, attentive, and super knowledgeable.
If you love craft beer and haven't been to Noble Beast I have one tip for you....GO THERE ASAP! You will not be disappointed!
