Black Magic: Genius Wizard Returns at Ratio Beerworks

On Saturday, December 9, Ratio Beerworks celebrated the return of its Genius Wizard Russian Imperial Stout, pouring samples of the dark, mysterious beer in the brewery's back room, which was transformed into a magical lair of food and beer. The RiNo beer company offered several versions of Genius Wizard, including vintage batches dating back to 2014. Food vendors from the upcoming Zeppelin Station market hall fed the crowd banh mi from Vinh Xuong Bakery, tuna from Aloha Poke Co., chocolates from Copia Confectionery, and Montreal-style brisket sandwiches from Au Feu. And a lucky winner walked home with a magnum of Ratio's bottled black magic.
