https://endeavorbrewing.com/

Hofbrauhaus Columbus

800 Goodale Blvd. Columbus, OH 43212 • 614-294-2437
http://www.hofbrauhauscolumbus.com/

Show Information

This corner of Grandview Yard channels Oktoberfest all year. One of just five modeled after the legendary 400-year-old Hofbräuhaus in Munich, Germany, it’s a fun and festive place to meet friends and try something new.

Raise your bodacious glass stein to the lively (and live) accordion music in the Bier hall or snag some seats in the welcoming Grandview Heights Bier Garden. In typical Deutsche Biergarten tradition, it’s filled with long tables and benches where you might end up chatting with newfound friends by the end of the night. If you’re not up for all that fellowship and Biervergnügen though, you can grab a booth or a high-top table.

All the Hofbräuhaus Biers are all brewed on-site following the original recipes developed by the Duke of Bavaria in the 1500s, and that’s not all; everything from the rafters to the authentic German doorknobs meets the stringent specifications of the Stäatliches Hofbräuhaus in München. Even the head brewer was brought in from Düsseldorf, where breweries and Biergartens are institutions comparable to churches and city halls. Biermeister Robert Makein oversees the brewing of four year-round varieties and seasonal specialties like Oktoberfest, Maibock, Pilsner and Hefe Weizen Dunkel—biers that are refreshing and easy on the palate. Makein also conducts tours for groups of 10 or more if you call ahead.

Seasonal Keg Tappings are held the first Tuesday of each month and feature a parade of the 17 German state flags, as well as Hofbräuhaus’s nightly festivities: traditional German accordion music. You can usually spot a few ex-pats in dierndls or green Tyrolian hats.

Lunch buffet, happy hour & late-night menu, group sales, and meeting rooms are available.

Knotty Pine Brewing Co.

1765 W 3rd Ave., Columbus, OH 43212 • 614-817-1515
http://www.knottypinebrewing.net/

Show Information

The Knotty Pine Restaurant has been a Grandview landmark since the 1930s. Owner Jay Kessler reclaimed the nostalgia of this old-school neighborhood hangout and upped the ante by building his own micro-brewery on-site.

Kessler’s favorite house drafts are the easy-pairing Knotty Pine Mirror Lake IPA and Cherry-Smoked Porter, which go well with the scratch-made pub food that you could call American with an Italian influence: pork tenderloin, veal short ribs, stuffed pepper sliders, pizzas, and turkey ragu. Chef Bret Perichak is devoted—he also makes his own burger buns, pasta, mozzarella and ricotta cheeses.

You’ll find a revolving selection of beers brewed on premises. It might be Hoppy Mandarin Wheat Ale, Double Bitter Resolve IPA, or Third EyePA, brewed in collaboration with The Ohio Taproom. Kessler even crafts a house root beer, Third & W Root Beer Ale, and serves select crafted drafts from fellow Columbus micro brewers.

House beers aren’t the only thing on tap; on weekends, you can belly up to the Bloody Mary Brunch Bar and make your own Mary. Try it with a stack of blueberry pancakes or biscuits and gravy.

Closed Mondays for brewing, patio seating available.

The Ohio Taproom

1291 W. Third Ave., Columbus, OH 43212 • 614-487-9224
http://theohiotaproom.com/

Show Information

Beer is good, and Ohio-made craft beer is really good.

The Ohio Taproom growler shop carries only Ohio craft beers. If you know just how many great beers are brewed in the Buckeye State, you’ll appreciate the 50-cent samples that will help in your pint or growler selection. The Taproom recently started serving on premises and added a patio in front of the landmark barber-shop-turned-growler-stop. Homey and inviting, the old armchairs inside are hard to resist as you ponder your options, watch the game, or chat with owner John Evans or the other congenial bartenders. If you’re craving something salty, try some Ohio-made pretzels or jerky. The Ohio Taproom also hand-picks Ohio BBQ sauces, sodas, mead, cider, Kombucha, and a Grandview favorite, fresh-baked Honeykiss pies. When it’s time to go, grab a refillable glass growler or plastic gameday howler. They’ll fill it up fresh and seal it to keep for a surprisingly long time—temptation notwithstanding—thanks to the patented counter-pressure fill system that fills fast and is environmentally friendly.

Take home your growler to enjoy with your family and friends. Rinse. Repeat.
