Brock pointed to the weekly Guest Bartender nights that raise money for local non-profit organizations as a “key indicator that this is a place that is bigger than itself. It is one that genuinely cares about the community and actively supports its growth.” She also praised the brewpub’s “super-talented brew team, trained and creative kitchen staff, and fun-loving service staff.”
FSB, which opened in 2012, is Ohio’s first co-op brewery. It is open to the public.
Tony Clark, president of FSB’s board of directors, said this morning that Brock’s experience at Carillon Brewing Co. “makes her an ideal fit for our Co-Op.
“Not only does she have the perfect mix of management and brewing experience, she also has a passion for preservation, history and community development. Her passions align perfectly with our mission as a not-for-profit brewpub. We are all very excited to see how our brewpub grows and evolves under her skillful management.”
In July, Fifth Street Brewpub captured more medals than any other brewery in Ohio in the 2016 U.S. Open Beer Championship. FSB won gold medals for its Jo-Jo's Midnight Stout in the American Stout category, and for BA Scottish Reign in the Wood/Barrel-Aged Strong Scotch category, as well as a bronze medal for its Coffee Kolsch in the Coffee Beer category.
