3/31/26: Northern Row's Cooper Heller Bock
You didn't really think I'd let March slip away without a bock post, did you? Because there's no way I'd do that. Sure, the bock drought I noted in previous years is still going on (for some reason), but that's not enough to dissuade me from trying at least one new-to-me variant of this spring varietal! After some serious search, I found a single can of Northern Row's Cooper Heller Bock. See that goat-disguised barrel on the label art? Yeah, I think this one'll fit this month's bill just fine. Northern Row Brewery & Distillery lives in a pre-Prohibition stock house within Cincinnati's Over-the-Rhine neighborhood. They specialize in traditional-style beers that pay homage to Cincinnati's heritage (meaning they do up a mean German-inspired ale or lager). Head over to their website to find out more about them and their whole distilling deal . Cooper has a spot at the bottom of the brewery's "Seasonals" page . Here, showcased with what I assume is the bock's old label art, it's listed

9/28/25: Northern Row's Schwester
This is the penultimate Oktoberfest post of 2025, which features a lager I picked up in July. It's been sitting in my fridge since, waiting patiently for this evening. So, let's go. Here's Northern Row's take on an Oktoberfest lager: Schwester. Northern Row's located in Cincinnati, OH's Over-the-Rhine. They're focused on crafting innovative beer out of their home in a pre-Prohibition brewery stock house. You can find a little more info over on their "Northern Row Beer" page . If you explore their website, you'll also find that they distill spirits. Schwester (located on the page hyperlinked in the above paragraph) is a 5.6% ABV festbier brewed in collaboration with Meckesheim, Germany's Schumi's Mecksebräu . For those wondering, the connection with Meckesheim is that it's the sister city of Harrison (a city just west of Cincinnati). The nose on my can is subdued. All the same, what little I find is clean, hoppy, biscuity, and bready. That's all there is to it. There isn't any malt
