An amber lager with rich, fragrant malt flavors balanced by crisp, noble hops. The amber lager style was created by Anton Dreher of Vienna, Austria, during the mid-19th century. Named after one of Cleveland's most respected safety directors who frequented the Brewpub's bar during his tenure from 1935-1941 and, according to popular legend, was responsible for the bullet holes in the bar still evident today. Margaret Conway, the mother of owners Patrick and Daniel Conway, worked with Ness as his stenographer.
