Great Lakes Brewing Company, Ohio's first and most celebrated craft brewer, ranked #22 out of 25 "Top Brewers" in the latest issue of Beer Advocate, a respected monthly magazine dedicated entirely to beer. Beer Advocate reviewed hundreds of thousands of customer beer reviews for their annual "Best of" issue, which is now on shelves.

Beer Advocate also included two Great Lakes Brewing Company beers, Dortmunder Gold Lager and Eliot Ness Amber Lager, on its list of "Top Lighter Lagers." Both lagers also recently received gold medals at the World Beer Championship.

Great Lakes Brewing Company was the first microbrewery in Ohio and remains the state's most award-winning brewer.
