Description

Dating all of the as far back as 1812, the history of brewing in Cincinnati is a long and illustrious narrative. In the mid-19th century, the Queen City’s unexpectedly expanding German population definitively transformed the industry, making Cincinnati probably the most nation’s foremost brewing centers. Mainly based in the vibrant Over-the-Rhine district, the golden age of brewing in Cincinnati saw the creation of architecturally spectacular brewery structures, a proliferation of related industries, in addition to an abundance of saloons and beer gardens. The enactment of Prohibition crippled this formerly booming industry, on the other hand, and even if local brewers returned to revive their trade following the repeal of Prohibition, the industry would never regain its former prominence. At the present time, Cincinnati’s brewing culture is experiencing a multifaceted renaissance with a promising outlook. Cincinnati’s Brewing History offers a concise overview of the history of brewing and beer culture in the region through vintage and latest images, in addition to brewing collectibles.
