This evening I rode the Metro 11 bus from downtown to East Walnut Hills…
I met Genifer at Woodburn Brewery for a beer and some Che empanadas…
I really like Woodburn’s beers and Che’s empanadas. I like them a lot. 😀🚌🍺🥟❤️

After work this evening, I hopped on the Metro 11 bus…
I rode it up into East Walnut Hills to meet Genifer again at Woodburn Brewery…
Their chocolate mint imperial stout is just out of this world…
And then the Che empanada truck pulled up right outside Woodburn’s front door…
We got three delicious Che empanadas and chips&salsa which turned out to be much more like nachos than chips&salsa…
And Cincinnati was bracing a big snopocolypse…
So we finished our empanadas and beers and headed for home before the white death began. 😀🍺❤️

After work this evening, I hopped the Cincinnati Metro 11 bus…
I rode the eleven up to East Walnut Hills…
I met her just around the corner from her work at Woodburn Brewery. Because we saw that Woodburn had their Chocolate Mint Imperial Stout back on tap. It’s the beer that tastes just like a Girl Scouts Thin Mint cookie…
There were also empanadas from Che. I really love empanadas…
We got the trio of empanadas. We tried the beef, Cuban and pepperoni empanadas…
All of them were very good but the traditional beef empanada is always my favorite.
I was a fun Friday evening with great empanadas and a pretty outstanding beer. We’ll have to do this again soon. 😀🍺❤️

This evening we dropped off our cable boxes and remotes to Spectrum to finally be done with cable once and for all. After that, we planned on stopping by the relatively new Mad Tree taproom in Oakley for a happy hour event. Their space is really massive and oddly the amount of parking is not. We drove around the parking lot looking for a spot twice before calling it quits and heading back to Northside. We stopped at Higher Gravity on the way home. They were hosting a Star Wars Hans Solo event featuring some beers from Woodburn Brewery…
Higher Gravity had some beers that had really great package design…
And on the way home, we stopped at Chameleon to grab a couple of delicious pizza slices to take home with us…
It was another fun night in Northside. 😀🍺❤️

This evening Genifer brought us home a pre-St. Patrick’s Day treat… A growler of the Chocolate Mint Imperial Stout that tasted just like a Girl Scouts Thin Mint cookie from The Woodburn Brewery Taproom in East Walnut Hills…
That is one really delicious beer! 😀🍻🍀❤️

This evening we ventured off across town to another up-and-coming neighborhood in Cincinnati, East Walnut Hills…
Genifer works right around the corner. She was excited to check out some of the places she sees every day but hasn’t had the chance to visit yet. Our first stop was at Woodburn Brewery and Tap Room…
We’ve tried a couple of Woodburn’s beers on tap at Higher Gravity and they were really good so we were excited to see what else they had…
We got a flight. We tried the Breakfast Porter, American Brown and Imperial Stout…
Did I mention it was a Chocolate Mint Imperial Stout that tasted just like a Girl Scouts Thin Mint cookie? It was one of the best beers I’ve tasted in a quick minute…
Woodburn Brewery also had some small bites by Mazunte…
We got the guacamole and chips and the nachos…
The nachos were really good but they were just too much food. I’m still really kicking myself for not just getting the beer cheese. When in doubt, always go with the beer cheese. Especially when you’re at a brewery.
We did another flight with two barrel-aged beers and another taster the Chocolate Mint Imperial Stout. It was such an amazing beer. There’s already been talk of Genifer taking one or two of our growlers with her to fill up with the Chocolate Mint Imperial Stout some day after work. It was a really great place. And we can’t wait to come back soon. Then we went across the street to meet friends at Myrtle’s Punch House…
As you could expect from the name, Myrtle’s specialty is serving punch…
Our punches are handcrafted and can be ordered by the glass, in a flight, if you want to try a bit of each, or in a bowl to share with your friends! There are always four options on tap to choose from, and we feature punches with recipes dating back to the 1700’s, as well as new and innovative approaches to this classic cocktail.
We shared a punch bowl of the Mark Twain punch made with Bourbon, Pimms, lemon, black tea, apple cider and honey…
How adorable is that punch bowl? And the punch was very tasty…
But at $24, the punch bowl seemed a bit on the pricey side to me. Like any punch, it was mostly juices and mixers with a splash of the good stuff. Don’t get me wrong, Myrtle’s is a pretty fun place too. I just think presented with the choice, we’d always lean towards beers over cocktails.
It was a pretty fun night out in East Walnut Hills. And we got to check out a couple of new places. It’s a nice place to visit but I’m really happy we live in Northside. 😀🍺🍹❤️
