CLEVELAND, Ohio – As of Tuesday evening, Great Lakes Brewing Co. held the top spot in USA Today’s best brewpub competition.
Ohio’s first craft brewery is the only one from the Buckeye state in the top 20.
Voting runs through Monday, March 13, so the leaderboard can rotate based on incoming votes over the next month. Winners will be announced Friday, March 17. One vote per day is allowed.
Here’s how USA Today describes Great Lakes:
“Great Lakes Brewing Company was started by two brothers with limited brewing experience in 1986. Today, it’s one of Cleveland’s top destinations for good beer and good food. Located in the Ohio City neighborhood, the GLBC brewpub features an eco-friendly beer garden with a retractable roof, where guests can sip a beer while sampling from a menu of seasonal menu items made from locally-sourced ingredients.”
The brewery actually opened in 1988.
All 20 of the list’s brewpubs, which were nominated as the best in the country by a panel of beer experts, serve their own beers. Check out the leaderboard.
