Columbus Brewing Company is the oldest craft brewery in Columbus. And for more than 30 years, Columbus Brewing Company has been serving the best beer in town, making it one of the most recognized breweries in the Midwest. Archie welcomed Director of Innovation, Tony Corder, to the Qfm96 studio for the brewery’s debut “I’d Tap That” edition of the Joe Show Drive at 5! Archie has been a long-time fan of Columbus Brewing Company, especially its American Lager. It’s just a great all-around beer to enjoy any time of the year. In fact, many of the world-class brews that Tony brought in to sample are great year-round. Check out what he brought in to sample:
- American Lager: (4.6% abv) This award-winning brew is an instant classic that’s crisp, clean and perfectly crafted.
- IPA: (6.3% abv) IPA sets the standard for the India Pale Ale category with an impeccable blend of hops from the Pacific Northwest with aromas of freshly-peeled orange, grapefruit and soft tropical notes.
- Bodhi: (8.3% abv) With a cult following of its own, this double IPA has big, bold tropical aromas with notes of mango, grapefruit, pineapple and citrus. Bodhi is balanced with a bright, clean and smooth finish.
- Margarita Playa: (4.6% abv) A refreshing, tart ale to put you in vacation mode with aromas of freshly-squeezed margarita and salty ocean air.
- Mango Chroma: (4.6% abv) This seasonal ale is refreshingly tart with tropical mango aroma and a splash of citrus.
