Brews on Tues: Voodoo on Lee

👋 Sam here. I'll admit that as I write these weekly dispatches on Cleveland beer, I'm conscious of the West Side bias.

• So sometimes I venture out East as a discipline.

Drinking the news: I'd never been to Voodoo Brewing on Lee Road in Cleveland Heights.

• The Pennsylvania-based brewery opened its first non-PA satellite in Ohio in 2019 and prides itself on pub management and "quirky" beers.

What I drank: The Key Lime Kolsch, a 5%-ABV seasonal offering that seemed appropriate for a patio.

Verdict: Tarter than I anticipated. The Great Lakes Mexican Lager with lime is one of my favorite summer beers, and I assumed this would have a similar flavor profile.

• But it honestly reminded me more of a Gose.

Vibe check: Convivial atmosphere and lightning-quick food preparation, even during trivia night.

• The pork belly Brussels sprouts did not disappoint.

Stop by: Add this one to your rotation, alongside Boss Dog and Bottlehouse, for a beverage before or after a movie at the Cedar Lee.
