"Built on Beer" Walking Tour in Cincinnati booking from $39.00

"Built on Beer" Walking Tour

Overview

Brewing high quality beer was an art form to many Cincinnati breweries and the buildings that housed their operations needed to be an extension of this passion. This tour shares the evolution of the brewing industry through the size, complexity, and architectural grandeur of the city’s historic breweries. We follow the Brewing Heritage Trail along the western portion of the Brewery District and marvel at the many remaining 19th and early 20th century structures, while sharing stories of those who built or doomed these brewing empires during beer’s industrial revolution. Tours include a visit into the vast subterranean lager cellars of the historic (non-operating) Jackson Brewery, as well as the historic Sohn Brewery, one of the few remaining examples of Mature Lager Period Architecture, and several Christian Moerlein Brewery sites along the way. We'll then go to a nearby local taproom for a pint of beer or soft drink, which is included with the tour. Approximately 1/2 mile of walking.

We went on the tour with Aaron. He was very knowledgeable and engaging. We were all very entertained, and if possible he is great to have a beer with.

Thanks for taking a tour with us Travis and I'm so glad you had a great time! It's always fun when we get to stop in at one of the local taprooms and try some of their beer. Hopefully I'll see you all again soon!

We enjoyed walking back in history to actual breweries and having the history explained by knowledgeable guides. What a great tour!

Lisa was outstanding! We are lifelong Cincinnatians and learned several interesting facts, saw our city in a new way and introduced us to a fantastic new place called Northern Row! If you are new to Cincinnati or have been here all your life get some family members together and check this out!
