Cincinnati brewers meet to create special beer

By Rick Published: December 28, 2011

Cincinnati-area brewers are getting together today at Mt. Carmel Brewing Co. to collaborate on a special beer: Cincinnati Brewmasters' American Barleywine. The beer is slated to be released in six-packs in mid-January, according to Fox 19. The first-ever Cincinnati Beer Week -- a weeklong celebration of beer -- is set for Feb. 2-9. "This is an incredible opportunity to show the strength of this city's brewing heritage," Mike Dewey of Mt. Carmel told the television station. "We've long been overdue for Cincinnati to host its own beer week and this town's brewers want to do all we can to make it a success." In addition to Mt. Carmel, the participating breweries are: Rivertown, Christian Moerlein, Listermann, Rock Bottom and Red Ear. To read the Fox 19 report, click here.
