As a microbrewery, the Brew Keeper used the name Mad Brewer to denote their beer sold outside their facility in other drinking establishments and retail outlets. Their beers were mostly high-gravity, some reaching as high as 12% alcohol by volume which is the legal limit for the definition of beer in Ohio[3] (typical beers have around 3% to 8% alcohol by volume).
The Brew Keeper closed in 2010 due to financial reasons.[4]
