La Bettola's specialty beers

Papa's Secret Batch, a pre-prohibition style lager and Gigi's Redhead Ale, a red ale. Both are craft beers created by Cincinnati's Listermann Brewing Company. Each of these beers reflect our family and friends. Papa's was named after owner Harry Stephens' grandfather, Angelo Scozzafava, whom Harry respectfully called "Papa". This lager has a wide appeal with a crisp, clean taste and pairs well with many dishes. Gigi's Redhead Ale is affectionately named for Harry's own favorite 'redhead', wife and co-proprietor, Gay Stephens. This ale is bold, full-bodied and pairs well with our house-made marinara sauce
