    any of their gose or weiss are decent...the one out now is Orange Blossom. They don't do true sours really.

    Been there a couple times and same thing. I honestly don't know how they have lasted this long. Not sure the reason behind the lack of patrons.

    They can a lot of their stuff, but I can never keep track of what is out at any given time.

    I recall liking their Orange Blossom Gose, Peach Spreader and Cherry Darling... no idea if any of those are out right now. I would recommend picking up singles when you see them and going from there.

    I was never a sour guy - but some of Platforms gose/berliners opened me up a bit. Maybe not sour enough for a super sour nerd, but a "gateway drug" for me. Peach spreader was my fav, orange blossom (out now) and passiflora were really great too.

    Also with it being warm if you do BBQ I love the low ABV style with it. Can drink a bunch while the smoker is going and sour cuts the sweet, smoke and fat richness really well.

    Oh. Interesting. In Cuyahoga it's still just us dealing with Platform directly which I love.

    ya the bottle shop owners had issues, so this is a relatively new thing apparently. They couldn't get any platform for a few weeks.

    I agree. All of their Goses and Beiners that I have had have been very enjoyable, and I think would have a wide appeal. There have been a few inconsistencies and a few misses, but I feel like they are severely under appreciated for what they are putting out right now.

    Gonna disagree here. Platform is very widely loved in greater Cleveland.

    I assume they are. That's what lead to opening the Columbus location that is seemingly empty all the time. And that is with no Columbus Brewing taproom yet. My perception was that around Ohio in general I really don't see or hear much regarding them.

    This is like when a character in a movie says the name of the movie.

    Boy, I'm just so tired of all these Star Wars.

    "New to Ohio" as a thread title has gotten a little too faded for being past the bottling date for me.

    How 'bout we mix it up next year? Options:

    All Ohio Everything
    Ohio Against the World
    Birthplace of Attenuation (screw you, North Carolina)
    Ohio, the Wort of it All
