Something that will make Tucker Carlson very unhappy to see.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Midnight Owl is the brainchild of husband-and-wife team Joel Warger and Rosemary Mudry, who opened the space to create a community hub.<\/p>\n<p>In July 2025, the couple partnered with Segal to fully transition the brewery\u2019s kitchen and beer operations to kosher, making it one of the only establishments of its kind in the United States.<\/p>\n<p>Segal, an Orthodox rabbi and award-winning pitmaster, is no stranger to ambitious culinary projects. Known nationally for his signature Kansas City-style BBQ, he\u2019s the force behind the brand, Mendel\u2019s Kansas City BBQ.<\/p>\n<p>His collaboration with Midnight Owl brings an exciting twist to the kosher food scene: a local brewpub where guests can enjoy smoked wings, craft beers, and bar food classics\u2014all under rabbinic supervision.<\/p>\n<p>During the episode, Silverberg samples an array of crave-worthy bites, including frickles (fried pickles), empanadas, hot dogs, and classic chicken wings, all made fresh in-house and paired with Midnight Owl\u2019s craft brews.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s perfect beer food personified,\u201d he declares, offering high praise for both the kitchen and the concept.<\/p>\n<p>VIDEO:<\/p>\n<p>Midnight Owl Brewing Company<br \/>20312 Chagrin Blvd, Shaker Heights, OH 44122<br \/>216-417-3334<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/midnightowlbrewingcompany.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">midnightowlbrewingcompany.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>                    <a href=\"https:\/\/chat.whatsapp.com\/EeU5Vt0j6PPGMXHt0itb3F\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><br \/>\n                      <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/WACo_600.gif\"\/><br \/>\n                      <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Watch: Tripping Kosher visits Midnight Owl, a glatt kosher brewpub in Cleveland, Ohio, recently transformed by pitmaster Mendel&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":409837,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[49,48,172555,84,172556,172557,395,172558,74357],"class_list":{"0":"post-409836","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nutrition","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-chaim-silverberg","11":"tag-health","12":"tag-joel-warger","13":"tag-mendel-segal","14":"tag-nutrition","15":"tag-rosemary-mudry","16":"tag-tucker-carlson"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/409836","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=409836"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/409836\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/409837"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=409836"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=409836"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=409836"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
