Darkness Brewing Archives - The Gnarly Gnome

This episode is always a blast, bringing with it more than its fair share of chaos! Big Cis is a collaboration beer that we brew every year in memory of Mike Cisneros, who helped start this show back in 2015. To be fair, the show was his idea, and I was just along for the ride until he passed away only a year and a half after we had been making it. The beer honors him. It honors who he was and rep...

It seemed like it was about time to get back down to Darkness Brewing in Bellevue to talk to owner Eric Bosler after what felt like way too long between episodes down there. We sat down the day before the release of one of my favorite beers that they make, Blumpkin – and not only drank that but a couple of other new things that they have going on. The conversation went into a lot of really f...

I messed up this week… which I’ll explain when you listen to this week’s episode – but that doesn’t mean I’m going to let it stop me from sharing with you a beer that I fell in love with recently at Darkness Brewing Company. I jumped on a phone call with Eric Bosler about their Sazerac Attack, which is easily the best cocktail inspired beer that I’ve ever...

There are some beer styles that are considered ‘Trendy’ and two of the ones that jump to mind for me were both on tap at Darkness Brewing when the Brewcast rolled in last week. We grabbed a Brut IPA and a Cascadian Dark Ale and asked owner Eric Bosler about the styles, as well as some “bigger picture” stuff about where Cincinnati is, where it’s going and if it’s possible for a place like Darkness...

The clock may keep ticking on, but there’s no rest for the Cincy Brewcast team as we pull together to get yet another episode out. This week, we’re still sitting down with Steve Shaw from Cellar Dweller, Eric Bosler from Darkness Brewing and Sean Willingham from Municipal Brew Works, only this time we’re pouring a couple of fun “Golden Stouts” to try. To keep our pala...

This episode of Cincy Brewcast is kind of “up for grabs” as we welcome three fantastic brewers into the studio. We talk about all three breweries (and try a few beers from each brewery along the way) diving into some big topics like distribution, the ongoing challenges of educating the public and service industry on craft beer and what the future holds for each of their breweries &#821...

This week we meet Ron Sanders and Eric Bosler, the founders up the upcoming Darkness Brewing in Bellevue, KY. Ron and Eric are hoping for an early autumn debut, but they are already in their space and preparing things! Find out why some of what you may have heard or read (brewing only dark beers, a reliance on crowd funding) may or may not be completely true. If that’s not enough, we’ll also try s...
