    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.

    Nurses ♥️ Miranda
    Ashley_B, May 2024
    Miranda was our tour guide and we were in the best hands! Her knowledge, genuine enthusiasm and palpable love for the fair city of Cincinnati is unmatched and well received. We had a great time and learned things about this city we didn’t even know, and most of us have lived here for a solid decade or are born and raised here. Do not hesitate to take this tour, and the brewery is excellent as well.
    Great Tour!

    The hidden cavern tour with Miranda was amazing!! Miranda was incredibly knowledgeable and over the top entertaining! The tour was so fun and took us through the streets of OTR and then into an old brewery cavern. We had three couples and we all loved our experience!

    The tour would’ve been absolutely boring if it wasn’t for our tour guide Miranda. She is such a light, friendly, bubbly personality that totally made the tour some thing my husband and I will tell everyone about. We learned so much historical evidence while having fun all at the same time, Miranda truly is the best!

    I'm not sure
    Andrew_D, Apr 2024
    Parking lot for the brewery machine was not working.Couldn't park there because I was afraid to get towed. Tried to call event coordinator no answer. And I blaming them.No, not really?I know nothing was intentional, but I'm still frustrated that I couldn't get ahold of anybody to verify what to do.Ended up missing the event
    Great story teller, history, and tour
    Liz_P, Apr 2024
    Meranda was fantastic! She brought wonderful stories to life, made them personable, and made the evening go wonderfully - even through the rain! It was also amazing to travel through the caverns. Thank you!
    History, Fun and Great Beer!
    Adam_P, Apr 2024
    Maranda made the tour so enjoyable. She was fun and knowledgeable. My wife and I learn so much of the history of Cincinnati and the history of beer and breweries in Cincinnati. She knew everyone's name and that gave the tour an personal touch. Will be coming back with the rest of our family to do the Haunted tour.
