Day 10: Zaftig Brewing Company I Believe in Santa Ale Here’s another new calendar addition and a brewery we haven’t really had a lot of beers from. Zaftig is located in Worthington, Ohio close to Columbus, but we’re starting to see more and more of …
Day 9: Flying Dog Brewery K-9 Winter Warmer Here’s another new-to-us beer on the list. Flying Dog makes some pretty good beers so we’re excited to try this one. We also all have dogs so we’re fans of the name. From the brewery: “After a long …
