Give a Seat, Take a SeatUA Rotary donates funds for kitchen chairs

More families in need will be pulling up seats around their kitchen tables because of the Upper Arlington Rotary Club.

Upper Arlington Rotary donated $3,000 to the Furniture Bank of Central Ohio in April for the organization to build chairs to accompany the tables it already produces.

The furniture bank, which provides free furniture to central Ohio families and individuals struggling with poverty and other life challenges, takes donations of gently used furni-ture from individuals and organizations and fixes items if necessary. Volunteers also assemble donated furniture kits and build kitchen tables and dressers from donated particle board from Sauder Woodworking Co.

This is the third time Upper Arlington Rotary has supported the furniture bank, and club members also regularly volun-teer to build tables at the bank’s workshop.

Pat Camp, furniture bank senior development officer, ac-cepted the check from Rotary Club member Sandy Clary.

Parade PrepPlans proceeding for Independence Day festivities

The Upper Arlington Civic Association named Bill Rich-ards grand marshal for the 4th of July parade. Richards is a retired UA teacher, a U.S. Navy veteran and director emeritus of Honor Flight Columbus. He taught for 28 years at Hastings Middle School and Wickliffe and Barrington elementary schools.

The theme of this year’s parade is “You Are a Grand Old Flag.” The parade begins at 9 a.m. on July 4 after the day kicks off with the civic association’s traditional wake-up calls. Sign-ups for wake-up calls begin June 1.

Party in the Park, a community celebration featuring enter-tainment and seating for the fireworks, begins at 5:30 p.m.

Ten-seat tables are available for $125 for UACA members or $150 for non-UACA mem-bers and are available for res-ervation beginning June 1.

Visit www.uaca.org for the latest on the Independence Day festivities.


The past year was a good one for the Village and its residents, property owners and businesses, says Mayor Kent Studebaker. “We witnessed positive movement from two perspectives … in economic development and in the Village’s quality of life.”

Of significance for the Village is its brighter economic environ-ment. “I gauge this by vacancy rates in our commercial proper-ties, and we’re seeing full capacity at 1600 Dublin Rd. (former NiSource building) and significant renovation and projected full capacity at 1400 Dublin Rd. (former Custom Coach building). Businesses also have renewed interest in smaller spaces along Fifth Avenue,” Studebaker says.

“Vacancies are decreasing because the Village works with businesses to meet their unique needs,” he said. “Village decision-makers remain constant. That knowledge continuity promotes positive economic development. I appreciate the leadership of recently retired councilman and immediate past Council President David Roark as well as the interest of new Council member Dow Voelker who brings government and real estate experience.”

The mayor listed several factors and recent activities that have enhanced the Village’s visibility and quality of life.

• Housing stock remains attractive and valued, which helps retain current homeowners and attract new homeowners. They like the Village’s quality of life. Building permits in 2013 almost doubled in value from 2010, and many investments are significant. The variety of homes, including 10 designed by noted Columbus architect Frank Packard, attracted the Victorian Society in America to tour the Vil-lage last summer.

• In 2013, seven Paul C. Falco scholarships were awarded to Marble Cliff high school seniors.

• Renovations were made to the Falco Park playground, and a group of Boy Scouts renewed pathways in the park in Tarpy Woods.

• The multi-use Scioto Trail was extended along Dublin Road to West Fifth Avenue. Plans for the West Fifth Avenue bridge improvements in 2015 include a shared-use path, which will take the path west to McKinley Avenue.

• As part of the recent path project, new crosswalk signals and markings were installed at West Fifth Avenue and Dublin Road, enhancing the walkability of that part of the Village.

• Marble Cliff partnered with the Grandview Heights/Mar-ble Cliff Historical Society on its 2013 Tour of Homes, which highlighted homes connected to famed Columbus artist George W. Bellows. The collaboration brought the

Columbus Museum of Art into the community for display of original Bellows art and a presentation at the Grand-view Heights Public Library.

• An Ohio State University Senior Student Studio completed a planning study and report for Village Council. It pro-posed making streets more pedestrian-friendly, continuing bike path enhancements, revitalizing the Fifth Avenue busi-ness district and increasing visibility of the Village.

• Marble Cliff’s strong relationship with the City of Grand-view Heights ensures a high level of police, fire and service. Last winter’s snow plowing is a good example.

So what is Marble Cliff doing this year? Studebaker quickly outlined several projects:

• Economic Development will continue as a focus. Marble Cliff has a lot to offer interested parties.

• Projects deferred during the economic downturn are be-ing initiated. Replacement of an aging street light system tops the list. Fifth Avenue should be completed this year, with the rest of the Village done as part of the five-year capital improvement plan. Village Fiscal Officer Cindy McKay notes Council’s past fiscal stewardship, coupled with improved economic conditions, should support im-plementation of the five-year capital plan.

• Infrastructure and street projects continue. Village sewer systems and streets though good, must receive on going maintenance. Third Avenue will be upgraded with the help of an Ohio Public Works Commission grant.

• Based upon the recommendation of the OSU students, Village stationery and new street signs now include the words “Marble Cliff.” Efforts to distinguish Marble Cliff will continue.

In summary, Studebaker says, “Marble Cliff may be small, but we’re proud to be a vibrant presence in the Tri-Village area.”

Lara Ross, who graduates from Indiana University in May, is being tapped for the Columbus Eagles, the new team in the Women’s Premier Soccer League.


faces By Stephan Reed Photos by Lisa Aurand

Playing the Field

The Columbus Eagles is the newest team in the Women’s Premier Soccer League, and the Upper Arlington High School graduate has been tapped for the roster.

“I’d rather be out at the field than any-where else,” Ross says.

When Ross takes the soccer field, she has two things on her mind: defense and her older brother, David.

“He was my biggest inspiration grow-ing up,” Ross says. “He’s seven years older than me, so I grew up watching him play. I always wanted to be like him. He’ll gladly take pride in any of my successes.”

David twice made the cross-country trip from Denver to watch Ross play at the college level at Indiana University and critique her game.

“We lost both games, but it was so great having him there and hear his criticism after,” Ross says. “He always has something to say. He used to tape games in high school, and when I would watch the film, I could hear ev-

erything he would say, and he would not hold back.”

With her brother, a former Witten-berg University soccer player, guiding and setting the benchmark as a soccer player, Ross played soccer throughout high school and became a key player on the team.

“When she played for me, she was my No. 1 player,” says Mark Wise, Ross’ coach at UA High School during her senior year. “We had someone who could score, but Lara was the one who understood the game and controlled it. She played 90 minutes, all out.”

Ross’s success in high school resulted in a collegiate career at Indiana Univer-sity, where she competed all four years and starred as a defender this past year.

“I like to be in the midfield, even though that’s rare,” she says. “Coaches always liked to put me at defense. I’m reliable. I can’t stop everything, but I’ve developed great communication skills and I can command the back line.”

Even though she wasn’t scoring all the goals, Ross’ presence on the field was known.

“She has great ball skills and preci-sion, so when they put her in the back, I said they were wasting their talent in the midfield,” Wise says. “She can control this game, but watching her play in the back, … she’s tenacious. She doesn’t let anyone get around her. She has shut down some of the best forwards the game has to offer.”

UA high school grad comes home to play for semi-pro teamLIKE MANY GrADUATING college seniors, Lara Ross will look for a career based in her field of study after she leaves her university.

But unlike the rest of the pack, she’ll get to competi-tively continue her favorite pastime: soccer.


This grip on the game and her aggres-sive nature helped Ross lead the Hoo-siers to a 15-7-1 season her senior year.

“We took off this season and started a whole new era of Indiana University soccer,” Ross says. “We got into the Big 10 tournament and the second round of the NCAA tournament. We played the reigning national champi-ons, North Carolina.”

Ross graduates this spring with a bachelor’s degree in health manage-ment and policy. Soccer played a role in her choosing health administration as a career path and was a big factor in her selecting Indiana University.

“I originally wanted to do nursing, but I wouldn’t have been able to balance the time. I should have done something like coaching,” she says with a laugh.

During college, she stayed on top of her education, despite the game always

being on her mind. Student athletes are regularly class checked to ensure they don’t let sports get in the way of studies.

“I was one of the first to practice and one of the last to leave,” Ross says.

Class may be over, but Ross is not ready to give up the game. Her posi-tion with the Eagles is the beginning of a semi-pro and, maybe one day, profes-sional career.

Support for the Eagles is growing ev-ery day, says Wise, who is the Eagles’ coaching director.

“The future looks bright,” he says. “We touched a nerve in central Ohio when it comes to female soccer outside of col-lege. There are a lot of ex-players who still want to play, and this gives them the opportunity, but it’s not just that. There’s a large market for people who want to watch women’s soccer. Many say they’ve been waiting for this.”

When top colleges around the nation scout for talent, central Ohio is one of their go-to locations. Adding a semi-pro team to the area just made sense, Wise says. And he doesn’t want to stop there.

“If it builds a big enough market and sponsors, we’ll look into the national league,” he says. “Columbus is one of the top five markets in terms of female soccer recruiting. To not have a pro team is crazy. At least we can start with this premier league and see where it goes.”

One of the biggest attractions to the game for women – and for fans – is the level playing field between men’s and women’s leagues. Unlike baseball, softball and basketball, both men’s and women’s soccer leagues play with the same size ball and field.

“There are not a lot of opportunities for women to continue their sporting ca-reers,” Wise says. “Soccer is soccer; it’s the same game as the men’s game.”

The Eagles season opener is May 11 at 4 p.m. in South Bend versus FC Indi-ana. The home opener is 2 p.m. May 25 on The Wellington School field.

Family-owned restaurants keep pace with the changing face of Tri-Village

Then – and now – innovation is a must for family-run restaurants that are main-stays in the Tri-Village community. A few of the older dining establishments told us how things have changed over the years and how they stay abreast of the latest trends.

Marshall’s has reinvented itself a few times since it opened as Chris’s Restau-rant in 1985 on Grandview Avenue. Back then, breakfast was all it served, says Matt Marshall, son of Chris Mar-shall and the restaurant’s owner.

“My dad was renting the building from a church, and I think it got turned into a youth center. It’s actually where the Arling-ton Bank is now,” Matt says.

The restaurant moved West First Ave-nue near Northwest Boulevard in 1992. Matt and his wife, Shannon, purchased it from his father in 2004. Its ownership isn’t the only thing that has changed over the years.

“Once we started in 1992, we did breakfast, lunch and dinner and closed at 8 (p.m.). It was comfort food,” Matt says. “Then my dad purchased a liquor license and added the bar and changed the back of the restaurant to add some pool tables.”

The closing of a salon next door paved the way for the restaurant to expand in 2000 – and add the koi pond and trans-parent tunnel that Marshall’s is known for. Shortly afterward, Chris took over break-fast and lunch duties and turned the bar over to Matt and Shannon.

“I took out the booths and put some pool tables in and just changed it over. We concentrated on breakfast, lunch and the full bar,” Matt says.

When Chris’s opened, there were few restaurants in Grandview Heights, Matt says, naming Paul’s and Spagio as two of the other long-time local eateries.

“There really wasn’t much else around,” he says. “Now you’ve got the (Grandview Yard). ... You have all the restaurants.”

Recently, Marshall’s added a breakfast buffet, a lunch buffet and more seating to the bar side.

“Nowadays, everyone is in a hurry,” Matt says. “You’ve just got to change with the times.”

Though Caffé DaVinci is a relatively new restaurant – it opened in 2006 – owner Tina Elsea has been in the restaurant business since she was a high schooler.

“(My parents) started DaVinci’s Restau-rant when I was a senior in high school

… behind the movie theater on Hender-son and Reed roads,” Elsea says. That was 1974. Elsea and her siblings and cousins worked the restaurant throughout their college years. She studied educa-tion at The Ohio State University and taught Spanish and Italian in Columbus Public Schools until after her first child was born.

Elsea’s parents, Dominico and Italia Ciotola, also helped run Monte Carlo on Cleveland Avenue before deciding to purchase a former funeral home at the corner of Henderson and Reed roads. The white-tablecloth restaurant featured a large banquet room and was open un-til 2006, when Tina and her husband, Kim, decided to go smaller and open Caffé DaVinci at the corner of Tremont and Zollinger roads.

“I used to be a runner, and whenever I’d run by that corner … I’d think about it. When that place opened up with a ‘For Rent’ sign, my husband and I both looked at each other and said, ‘OK, let’s go for it.”

The smaller space lends itself well to a fast-casual restaurant, but two things

were mandatory, Elsea says: The food had to be of the same quality and she wanted to open a gelateria.

“We wanted to keep the good quality of the food, (but) we wanted to change the concept,” she says. “When you look at the demographic in the area, there are a lot of couples with young kids. We thought it would be good to go fast-casual – good food made to order.”

The gelateria recently moved from the building’s north side to a glassed-in space on the restaurant’s south side. Mu-ralist Michael Dickinson painted the wall behind the gelato counter to resemble a scene from the streets of Italy.

Kim and Tina Elsea, owners of Caffé DaVinci


father in 1993, has updated the decor only as needed to replace worn-out items. Howard’s father, Maborn, bought the business in 1970 from Jim Reed and Chuck Zollinger. The Chef-O-Nette’s drive-up carryout window is one of the old-est in the country. Howard says he can’t find a record of any restaurant having one earlier.

The Chef-O-Nette’s clas-sic diner style and famously low prices – as well as its signature dish, the hang-over sandwich, a hamburg-er with ham, cheese, toma-to, lettuce and onion – are the same, but Howard says a lot is different, too.

“The demographics have changed. At one time, I remember well, the major-ity of the household was empty-nesters or retired, and that’s all changed as younger families moved in with their children,” he says.

Howard changes the menu, too, to offer variety to his devot-ed regulars. Some of the popular recent additions to the menu are a pulled pork sandwich served on Texas toast and a berry tart.

Though his two children worked in the restaurant during their school years, nei-ther is involved now. “One’s a speech therapist and the other one’s a chemical engineer,” Howard says.

Similarly, the buck stops with the Elseas at Caffé DaVinci. No other family members are currently employed there, Tina says.

Matt’s daughter, Madison, 12, oc-casionally buses tables at Marshall’s on weekends. Olivia, 8, wants to help, too, but is too young, says Matt, who started working at the family business when he was around 8.

“I’d go in and sweep the floors or pick up stuff,” Matt says. He started full-time at the restaurant after graduating high school. “I went to the school of hard knocks,” he jokes.

He doesn’t expect his daughters to fol-low their parents’ footsteps, though. “My kids will go to college and figure out what they want to do.”

Community child safety programs in both Grandview Heights and Upper Ar-lington aim to instill a sense of aware-ness in the minds of young children.

Both cities will again host programs introducing safety awareness and pre-ventive procedures to preschool chil-dren and cover safety topics such as stranger awareness, fire safety, poison avoidance, water safety and safety around animals.

The Upper Arlington Police Division’s three-hour a day, two-week Safety Town program attracts approximately 400 kin-dergartners each summer and has been held since 1971.

“They will be introduced to what po-lice officers do in the community,” says Heather Galli, community relations offi-cer of the Upper Arlington Police Divi-

sion. “In addition, children also spend time on our miniature village where they learn how to walk safely and cycle fol-lowing basic guidelines and rules.”

From the first day of the program un-til the last, the children are directly in-teracting with certified teachers, Upper Arlington’s law enforcement officers and representatives from the city’s Fire and Aquatics divisions, and representatives from the Nationwide Children’s Hospital Burn Unit.

Children are taught how to react when the house catches fire, to identify poi-

sons that may look like regular food, the importance of maintaining their bicycles and how to remain safe in and around the water whether they’re swimming, boating or fishing.

The Grandview Heights Parks and Recreation Department offers a similar program known as SafetyView Heights. The Grandview Heights program was Safety Town when it was established in 1978. The name was changed to Safe-tyView Heights in the mid-1990s.

Marta Durban, recreation supervisor, says parents need to assist their children

in getting acquainted with safety issues within the home area and outside of it where they play.

“We look at different perspectives of what we can do to help children be more alert and active about safety,” Dur-ban says. “We also have our police and fire department come down, and they also have an interaction with our kids, and (the children) just love to look at both the police vehicle and the big fire truck. That’s as close as some people even get to our law enforcement and our emer-gency crew.”

Certified teachers and long-time resi-dents of Grandview Heights conduct the program, assisted by volunteers from lo-cal middle schools.

“The teachers went through this pro-gram when they were kids, their kids have gone through it, and now they’re teaching other families’ children,” Dur-ban says.

Children at SafetyView are put into groups when they first arrive and are taken from one station to another to draw, write, sing and learn via interactive activi-ties – such as riding on small vehicles to practice street safety. But Durban explains that what they offer at Grandview Heights is more than just safety awareness.

“SafetyView is the very beginning of that because they actually help those kids to walk away with their own little books that they craft themselves,” Durban says. “SafetyView also teaches the kids how to get along with each other, and you can’t do that unless you bring them together in a safe environment to promote that kind of education.”

The Upper Arlington Police Division feels similarly about the weight Safety Town carries in the lives of the both the children who participate and their parents.

“Even at a young age, children can be empowered to be participate in their own safety, and, particularly in this age group, they are very involved and see what’s going on in and around their lives,” Galli says. “It’s an incredible op-portunity for the students and for parents to leave a positive lasting impression of mutual respect with public safety forces.”

Kitchen, Sweet HomeUA couple puts its own touch in mid-century ranch

WHEN JOE BrADLEY and his girlfriend, Heather Qurt-er, moved into their two- bedroom home in Upper Ar-lington in June 2013, they knew they would be making some pretty big changes to it.

Bradley, who works in medical sales, has always had a passion for home renovation; moving into a new house simply meant the challenge of making it feel like home.

“You’re not going to go into a house and say, ‘This is exactly how I wanted it.’ I love using the bones and going, ‘OK, we can do this,’ and you get to come up with creative ideas,” Bradley says.

The one-story house was built in the 1960s and had a kitchen without much room to maneuver and a bathroom with some serious space issues. Bradley’s sister, Jacqueline, a real estate agent, showed the couple the home.

“We bought the house knowing we were going to have to rehab it,” says Bradley, who graduated from Upper Arlington High School and lived in Los Angeles and Chicago before returning to his hometown. “We could have made

the kitchen work, but the bathroom was a space issue.”

The master bath had excessive cabinet space that left room for only a very tight shower. “The showerhead came about up to my neck,” says Bradley, laughing.

Now the bathroom has a luxuriously large shower with a fog-free mirror for Bradley to use for shaving – and just the right amount of cabinet space. The tiling and cabinetry were also redone.

The kitchen, how-ever, posed larger challenges.

“The sink wasn’t centered under the

kitchen window; it just didn’t look right. The fridge was in the walkway, so when it was open, we had no room to stand and it blocked the doorway,” says Bradley.

Moving the refrigerator and dish-washer allowed them to center the sink underneath the window. Removing the peninsula and adding an island permit-ted better traffic flow.

Bradley and Qurter also decided to create a niche for the microwave and updated the windowsills.

“They didn’t go with the style we were going for, so we took out the marble win-dowsills and put in a backsplash,” Brad-ley explains.

New cabinets from Heartland Home Cabinetry improved the look of the space, but aside from those, Bradley credits everything to Qurter.

Upper Arlington homeowners Joe Bradley and Heather Qurter worked with Heartland Home Cabinetry for the new cabinets in the kitchen of their 1960s ranch.


“She was really behind the rest of the design. She found a lot of ideas on Pinterest and the Houzz interior design app. The app is great because we could click on everything we saw and see exactly how much it cost,” says Brad-ley. “Everything we decided on was a group decision, but the designing was all her.”

The actual process of remodeling their home took about two months.

“We had only lived here a couple of weeks when I started gutting the kitchen myself – rip-ping up the floors, changing the cabinets. We finished mid-August of last year,” Bradley says.

“The biggest challenge with remodeling, I think, was just not having the kitchen space – finding ways to not eat out every night, mak-ing microwave meals. Grilling out helped. Just using the living room as a kitchen was the toughest thing.”

Now Bradley and Qurter enjoy their reno-vated rooms. Content with most of of the in-terior, Bradley has plans to update its exterior aesthetics and make minor upgrades inside.

Qurter used the apps Houzz and Pinterest to plan out the decor for the kitchen and dining area.

“We’ll probably paint the house, add more crown molding. I feel like there’s always something you can do to make it feel nicer.”

Bradley offers advice to homeowners thinking of renovating: “Try your hardest not to do the rehab while you’re actually living in the home,” he says. “And have an idea of what things cost – what things really cost, once you add in the expenses (of) a plumber, contractor and electrician.”

The couple had cabinetry removed to allow for a larger shower in the master bathroom.


Beer Me!

Laura Oldham of Starburst Media, who has helped Destination Grandview and the Grandview Area Chamber of Commerce plan Digfest for several years, wanted to do more for the local beer scene. Together Oldham, her hus-band, Doug, and Jamie Gentry created the Grandview Craft Beer Alliance, a nonprofit organization that promotes lo-cal beer bars and bottle shops.

“It’s non-member based. No one has to pay,” Oldham says. “We want to raise the profile of the Tri-Village area as a great destination for craft beer.”

The Alliance’s “coming out” party, so to speak, was the Grandview High Grav-ity Hullabaloo, which took place Feb. 1. The event, held in a warehouse near the Grandview Yard, billed itself as “a celebration of strong beers and smoked meats.” The Hullabaloo featured beer 8 percent alcohol and above from 10 lo-cal breweries; food from Smokehouse, Matt the Miller’s Tavern and Honeykiss Bakery; and classic arcade games from Arcade Super Awesome.

Smokehouse provided a whole roast-ed pig – and Smokehouse founder Lenny Kolada was astonished to see the animal stripped clean in short order.

“It was crazy,” Kolada says. “These are small slider-type sandwiches and that hog was stripped down to pure bone within an hour. It says something

about how good our barbecue is and how good it goes with craft beer.”

With 16 years of brewing at the smokehouse on Dublin Road under his belt, Kolada is one of the long-timers in the trendy craft beer scene.

“It was always cool, but (we were doing it) before everybody knew it was

on the table Story by Lisa Aurand

Grandview area serves up craft brews

INDEPENDENT BrEW LOvErS who visit the Grandview Heights area might think they’ve died and gone to beer heaven.

At least four craft brewers call the neighborhood home: Smokehouse Brew-ing Company (formerly Smokehouse Smokehouse & Brewpub), Four String Brewing Co., Sideswipe Brewing and Zauber Brewing. And Grandview Yard is home to Grandview Digfest, a celebration of craft beer as well as local micro-distilleries and Ohio wines and liquors held annually in June.

The Grandview Craft Beer Alliance’s first event, the Grandview High Gravity Hullabaloo, was held Feb. 1.

cool,” Kolada says. “I think that we’re perceived as one of the pio-neers here in Columbus and I like to think that people compare a lot of the new offerings to what we’ve been doing for a long time. Hav-ing said that, we also try to come up with new beer styles. We don’t just rely on the old standards.”

Kolada’s new favorites among Smokehouse drink menu are Basin Street Wheat, a wheat wine, and Bourbon Street Wheat, which is matured in a barrel from Wood-ford Reserve Distillery.

“We like to say what we do around here is part art, part sci-ence and part magic, and when all of those things come together, you’ve got an adventure in your kind of beer,” Kolada says.

In addition to participating in the Hullabaloo and regularly at Digfest, Smokehouse hosts its own annual event – the Mini Real Ale Fest, this year scheduled for June 7. Attendees can drink unfiltered, unpasteurized beer straight from the firkin – a wooden cask – without added carbon dioxide, from Smokehouse and other craft brewers.

Kolada is acquainted and friendly with the faces behind the newer breweries in town.

“You know, the more the merrier. We’re a very collaborative industry,” he says. “I know Geoff Towne (of Zauber Brewing) and Dan Cochran (of Four String Brew-ing Co.). They’re great guys and they’re doing great things. Of course, not as great as us, but it’s really cool that in this day and age, you can get a really fresh, handcrafted product right in your neigh-borhood.”

Towne, whose taproom on West Fifth Avenue opened Jan. 4, selected his location based on its proximity to the quickly growing Grandview Yard – particularly the condos and apartments.

“Grandview in general is the heart of our target market,” Towne says. “Lifestyle-wise it’s a great place to be. It’s along the 315 corridor, which is important for the majority of our target market.”

Another benefit of his location over one in the Short North or German Village? Parking.

“We have more parking than seats with the Goodwill Columbus lot next door as after-hours park-ing. If you can find a seat in the bar, I can guarantee you a park-ing spot,” Towne says.

Cochran, a musician, had been brewing at home since 1994 and started leasing the building

that houses the Four String Brewing Co. about three years ago.

“Craft beer and local in general are becoming so popular that the response has been pretty incredible the last two years. We’ve been growing leaps and bounds,” Cochran says.

He chose the location on West Sixth Avenue for his taproom and brewery be-cause he lives nearby.

“I live in Grandview and I wanted someplace that was close to home … and I was fortunate enough to find one,” Cochran says.

Geoff Towne of Zauber Brewing


The brewery is expanding its line of canned beers to its Brass Knuckle Pale Ale and Big Star White IPA and is branching out to the Akron and Canton markets with draft and canned beers. Four String participated in the Hullaba-loo and will spend its third year at Dig-fest in June.

“Things are going great,” Cochran says. “We couldn’t ask for more.”

Sideswipe Brewing, founded by mar-tial artist Craig O’Herron in November 2013, doesn’t have its own taproom yet, but its brews are already carried in more than 35 locations around cen-tral Ohio. O’Herron and his crew brew their three varieties of beer – Elegant Hoodlum Stout, Fisticuffs IPA and Coop Looter, a saison – in a location south of Grandview off of McKinley Avenue.

None of Sideswipe’s brews was strong enough for it to participate in the Hullabaloo, but O’Herron says he’s interested in participating in this year’s Digfest.

O’Herron began homebrewing beer nine years ago while he was spending a lot of time in Asia, “where the beer was not very good,” he says. He thinks people are drawn to craft beer for the same reason he was.

“I think people were looking for more options in their beer choices. You can’t drink the same old beer every day and not what to try something new.”

When new brewers pop up, Old-ham and the Alliance intend to be there to support them. The Alliance is planning a Maifest for 3-8 p.m. May 10 in the parking lot of Goodwill Co-

Doug Oldham, Laura Oldham and Jamie Gentry, pictured here at Four String Brewing, head up the Grandview Craft Beer Alliance.
