Kinguy had some good advice 5 1/2 years ago, but I'm wondering if anyone's been to Columbus since then and, if so, which spots you would recommend. Your help is much appreciated. Cheers!

Hey Peter - I posted my game plan for the weekend on Beer Advocate and so far the only suggestions I've received are for additional bottle shops and local beers to seek out. So I'm guessing my bar choices are solid.Peter Collins wrote: Oh, I want to know, too!!

Really? I only see Fairfield and Cincinnati listed on their website, and a search for "Jungle Jim's Columbus" turns up nothing.iguenard wrote: Jungle Jim's opened a store in Columbus last year...If it's anything like the one in Cincinnati, it should be godly.

I travel 6 state and as for Cleveland where I spend a lot of time. It has a craft brew seen better than many. But in the last year I believe that Columbus has taken over the lead. I hope this helped, if you have any questions you can PM me, I'll help if I can.
