Very informative and personalized tour. We were the only participants and the guide made it a great experience.
Over-the-Rhine is a historic neighborhood comprised of amazing structures both above and below the ground. Come and explore with us as we walk (approx. one mile total) and ride the streetcar to major topside landmarks such as Findlay Market, Music Hall, Washington Park, and the location of the Miam-Erie Canal. We'll also learn about it's underground history as we stop by several places from above, including the pre-Prohibition lagering facility of the Lafayette Brewery and Cincinnati's abandoned subway system below Central Parkway. Then we'll go three stories underground, where the Gerke Brewery fermented and cold-stored their beer dating back to the 1850s. This requires guests to traverse a series of steep stairs and is not recommended for young children or those who have difficulty with stairs, but anyone in attendance is welcome to remain topside. Our journey concludes at a local taproom, where we'll have a round of pints, just a few blocks away from our starting point.
Departure Point
- This tour begins from Findlay Market at the Brewing Heritage Trail "Hop On" Sign, located on the east side of the market, where West Elder Street meets Race Street. 101 West Elder Street is the nearest physical address using Google Maps, however, the meeting point is just north of this location.
- This tour ends at the Sam Adams Taproom, approximately 2 blocks away from where it begins.

We had a great time exploring the area with Mike! Tour was informative, interesting and engaging! Mike was very conscientious and helpful!

The tour was very rushed. We felt there was too much information for the time allotted and it was presented in the form of a list of dates mostly. No time during the tour to stop and take photographs, or revisit and take them.
The staircase to descend into the underground tunnel was horrendous. Had I known it was that scary, I don’t think I would have booked. Not for the faint hearted.

Good informative tour, Mike did a good job telling us about the history, the beer cellar was soo cool. Also I had a flat tire on the way down and they were very accommodating with last minute switching to a later time although in the end we made it!

There is no parking. I looked for over 20 minutes and was unable to attend the tour. Very dissatisfied with lack of communication in that specific detail.
