Old Peculier is possibly one of Britain’s most well-known and loved ales.

Bodhi sets the bar for Double IPAs as one of the most sought-after brands in Ohio. It’s a combination of a big, bold ABV that drinks smoother than most classic IPAs. The bold fruit character adds dimension and makes this a staple in the Ohio craft community and truly a beer worth drinking.
