What To Expect

Join the Cincinnati brewery tour at Northern Row Brewery & Distillery for an exploration of the city's brewing heritage and hidden caverns that you’d likely miss otherwise. Your adventure begins with insights into the history and construction of Northern Row's building.

Next, venture into the Linch Brewery Tunnels, constructed in 1850 and generally inaccessible to the public. Visit the filming location of a Johnny Cash movie and see the last standing structures of the original Christian Moerlein Brewery complex, usually closed to visitors.

The tour includes a stroll through Findlay Market, Ohio's oldest, discussing its historical significance. Also, outside the Rhinegeist Brewery, you can learn about the building's role in Cincinnati’s 19th-century beer scene.

Conclude your beer-themed explorations by accessing the tunnels beneath the closed Jackson Brewery, followed by a beer tasting at Northern Row Brewery for guests 21 and over, or a soft drink for younger travelers.
