I consider myself a beer connoisseur of sorts. I make it a point to seek out new beers and rarely buy a 6-pack of the same beer twice. The Cleveland Brewery, however, slipped through my consciousness for the longest time. It has limited open hours (6-10pm Fri/Sat), does not distribute outside of the brewery and has a less than prime location on 185th St.
When I finally heard about the brewery and made it in, boy was I positively surprised! The beer was great and was a reminder of how superior the taste of small batch beer can be. I had the imperial stout and seasonal pumpkin offering which were both fantastic. Although the location is a bit away from me, I plan to make it back here again due to the quality of the beer.
