Ohio's founding craft brewery — the Edmund Fitzgerald Porter and Christmas Ale are state legends.
Ohio's most iconic craft brewery, founded in 1988 by brothers Patrick and Daniel Conway in Cleveland's historic Ohio City neighborhood — making it one of the oldest craft breweries in the Midwest. Great Lakes helped define what Ohio craft beer could be, long before the modern explosion. Their Edmund Fitzgerald Porter is a perennial award-winner, and the Christmas Ale — released each November — triggers a statewide tradition of anticipation and celebration. The brewpub on Market Avenue is a pillar of Ohio City's revitalization.
