Ohio Brewing Company

The fraternity of brewers adheres to a simple creed: My fermenting tank is your fermenting tank.

Elevator Brewing Company is putting the finishing touches on a pair of limited batches for Akron-based Ohio Brewing Company. Dick Stevens, Elevator owner, is friends with Chris Verich, head honcho at Ohio Brewing Company.

Now for the bad news: If you're a local beer drinker, you're gonna need to set up a road trip to sample the stout and double red potions that Elevator Masterbrewer Vic Schiltz has overseen.

"They're just contract brews, meaning they won't be available at Elevator," Stevens confirmed.

However, the lucky attendees at February's Elevator brewery tour - roughly 45 folks, the biggest tour yet - were rewarded with a treat, sampling both beers before their pilgrimage to Akron.
