description: Brewing in Columbus began more than two centuries ago. The taps were only turned off during Prohibition and the short pause that preceded the modern craft beer explosion. For generations names such as Hoster Born Schlee and Wagner secured staunch local loyalty for their brands and earned national acclaim for their brewmasters. Today more than thirty craft breweries ply a prosperous trade in the capital city. After huge California craft brewery Stone became serious about Columbus for its East Coast expansion Scotland's successful BrewDog chose central Ohio for its U.S. beachhead. Author Curtis Schieber celebrates the rise fall and triumphant return of brewing in Ohio's capital.
