Brew Kettle Competitors

Our journey began with a 15-gallon soup kettle, a quest for better beer, and countless batches of homebrew. The passion and personality that began Bell’s continue today through our breweries and Eccentric Café. We continue to grow and evolve, dedicated to our mission; to be deeply rooted in our community, committed to the environment, and brewers of Inspired Beer. While Bell’s remains independent in many ways, we joined forces with New Belgium Brewing in early 2022.

Over three decades ago—1983, to be exact—the original Winking Lizard Tavern, nestled on Miles Road in Bedford Heights, officially opened its doors for the first night of service, promising great food and one heck of an atmosphere. The locals flocked to the friendly, unique atmosphere, and the culture of service that continues to propel the Winking Lizard and its team. With a passion for creative recipes, a world-class beer list (seriously), and leading-edge training programs, the Winking Lizard has expended to include the operation of 21 restaurants across Northeast and Central Ohio.

Rogue Ales & Spirits was founded in Oregon in 1988 as one of America’s first microbreweries. Rogue has won more than 2,000 awards for taste, quality and packaging, and is available in all 50 states as well as 54 countries. Proudly rooted in Newport Oregon, Rogue’s beers, spirits, cocktails, seltzers and sodas are a liquid ode to Oregon and the endless inspiration that its land, its sea and its people provide.
