Very interesting and well-presented

Michael_S, Nov 2022

There were only 2 of us on a very cold day, but the tour was thorough and interesting. Our guide was extremely knowledgable about the immigration history of Cincinnati, and gave wonderful explanations of the brewing processes used and how the multiple underground levels needed and functioned. Good connections with brewing history, and interrelations with prohibition and development of industrial refrigeration.

Drink beer and help the Cincinnati kids!
