What Fibonacci Brewing does

Fibonacci Brewing Co. operates a nano-brewery in Mount Healthy, Ohio, approximately 15 minutes from downtown Cincinnati. Founded in 2015 by Bob and Betty Bollas, the company produces small-batch craft beer with batch sizes of approximately 100 gallons distributed across 10 rotating tap handles. Its distinguishing structural feature is the integration of brewing operations with an urban micro-farm spanning six city lots, which supplies hops, herbs (lemon balm, chamomile, Thai basil), foraged mulberries, honey, and other ingredients incorporated into approximately 90% of its beers. Spent grain from brewing is repurposed for oyster mushroom cultivation, and farm animals (Nigerian Dwarf goats, Rhode Island Reds, Barred Rocks, Ameraucanas, Coturnix quail) are accessible to patrons during open hours. The company self-describes as the only nano-brewery in the country that is also an operating urban micro-farm.

The business runs a direct-to-consumer model organized around five revenue streams from a single property footprint. The main taproom at 1445 Compton Rd serves walk-in patrons with craft beer priced at $5-9 per 10-12oz pour (4.6-8.9% ABV range) and on-site food from partner Pi Pizza Co. The Farmhouse, a converted 100-year-old farmhouse, functions as a private event venue accommodating up to 31 guests across three pricing tiers ($350-$1,200). Two one-bedroom apartments above the Farmhouse operate as Airbnb farm stays at $85-110 per night, and the company runs Saturday morning workshops (sourdough, mushroom cultivation, beeswax crafts) and farm tours. Free live music programming (Americana, bluegrass, folk, acoustic) operates Friday through Sunday evenings as a traffic driver.

The company is 100% family-owned with no outside investors or corporate parent. In 2026, ownership transitioned to Jon Pischl (Operations, Agriculture, Beekeeping) and Willie Caldwell (Head Brewer, Marketing, Entertainment), who purchased the business from founders Bob and Betty Bollas. The company is staffed by approximately 4-6 key personnel plus part-time and contract staff and holds Brewers Association Certified Independent Craft Brewer status, Ohio Craft Beer Guild membership, and multiple regional awards including Cincinnati Magazine Best Brewery 2024, CityBeat Best Taproom Vibes, and finalist recognition in the Samuel Adams National Brewers Experienceship Competition (2022).
