Cincinnati's Over-the-Rhine neighborhood is home to one of the largest collections of pre-Prohibition brewery architecture, in the middle of one of the largest historic districts in the country. Let us show you the breweries, cellars, and tunnels that were the heart of Cincinnati's brewing industry on a "Prohibition Resistance" Brewery Tour.
Prohibition Resistance: The Lager Tour
May - September 2013
Offered every Saturday and Sunday throughout the summer, this 1 1/2 hour walking tour explores the heart of Cincinnati's Brewery District.
Participants will start and end at historic Findlay Market in the Over-the-Rhine Biergarten. We'll see historic pre-Prohibition breweries such as the original Christian Moerlein complex, once one of the largest in the country. We'll visit inside the Clyffside brewery, one of the most stellar examples of brewery architecture in the city, and see the ornate high-bay brewing spaces inside before traveling deep under the Jackson brewery to the massive lagering cellars in the Clifton hillside. Walking back to Findlay Market and the Biergarten, we'll hear about Prohibition and how Over-the-Rhine is finally recovering from The Great Mistake.
