What an experience last night. Last day on Business trip and wanted to hit up Rhinegeist since I always grab a six pack when i see it in stores. It's been awhile since I have been to a Brewery that checks all the boxes. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Atmosphere, Beers & Service are out of this world.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Keep up the good work. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Big space, plenty of room to spread out.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cool spot on paper, but honestly it was a little too chaotic for me, kind of loud and all over the place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Asked the bartender for a beer recommendation and didn't really get much. Felt like they were just going through the motions, no real interest in helping me find something. Might give it another shot on a slower day, but the first visit was just okay. read more

We were exploring the city and stumbled across this brewery while walking around. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It wasn't too busy when we arrived, and the place is huge with lots of seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The staff were very friendly and accommodating. They had a happy hour menu, and I got a beer for less than $5. I ordered the Cindy Light Watermelon & Sea Salt, which I think is a limited-time flavor. Great spot if you're in the area. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]If you're looking for a great rooftop in the OTR area, this is the place![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have a very wide variety of beer and several levels of seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] None of the beers really stood out as phenomenal, but everything we tried was good. I definitely recommend stopping in if you are touring the breweries in this area. read more

We were told by several people to check this place out and I'm glad we did because Rhinegeist is a really fun spot. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Plenty of seats and space.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The brewery had a myriad of beer options, [[HIGHLIGHT]]games for kids...and drunk adults such as corn hole, ping pong, and mini golf.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Not sure if there is an elevator but I remember walking up a lot of steps. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great place to watch sports too[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] and I read that they hold a lot of cool events here as well. Walkable distance to Findlay Market. read more

Great brewery downtown in over the Rhine district. Just a block or two from Finley market. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Inside and roof top seating... corn hole set up inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Great brews all in the old Christian Moerlein brewery... yeah.... Moerlein brewery is sonewhere else in the city. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Love the rooftop bar.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Parking is across the street... very limited spaces... street parking and parking at Finley market. It's pay to park. read more

Just had drinks, but there was a good selection for everyone in our group. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Loved the rooftop[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]].

We love Rhingeist Brewery in OTR! [[HIGHLIGHT]]A giant open space that has a rooftop option for nice days.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Kid friendly and you can order food into the brewery.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]There are games (bocce, cornhole) for kids or adults.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Super cute merch as well! read more

This brewery is spacious, easy to find and has a great selection on tap! They have a rooftop deck, which is perfect between April and October in the nicer weather. It's great for a date, birthday party dinner or even a large convention of 150+ people. I love the dark stout ink, but there are plenty of other lighter beers to choose from. read more

Updating my review from a previous visit from a few years ago - holidays at Rhinegeist are so much fun! We had a great visit, and checking out the special holiday beers. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Going for football Sunday was also fun, and it's a great space for gathering, families, friends, couples, and more.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service is great, but only limited to one bar. Food options are limited, but for a few beverages, you cannot go wrong with Rhinegeist while in Cincinnati. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Such an awesome spot![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I'm from San Diego where our craft brew scene is huge but I was absolutely floored by this place! [[HIGHLIGHT]]First of all the space was HUGE with all kinds of areas to hang around (can't miss that rooftop!).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] All the beers we tried were delicious (and there were so many options!) with friendly beertenders! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]We had beers on the rooftop on Sunday.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was great since it was March and we were able to sit on the rooftop.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The beer was great and the company was even better. We will be back. read more

Huge space for groups and the beers are great. I wish they had a better selection for food, but they let you bring in food so that's also great. Plenty of space/activities for kids to run around in while the adults chat. I think they're also a spot for futbol fans to congregate so I'm sure it gets lively in there on weekends for EPL and FC Cincinnati or any other local team playing. read more

The brewery occupies a nice large space with a rooftop terrace for the nicer days, and could host large party events on one of the floors. I have a soft spot for this place because our friends got married here. I've also been up to the rooftop to enjoy a pint or two. The beers are very good -- of course what you should get highly depends on your taste, but there is a large rotation, so hopefully there is something for everyone. I've also seen their beers on tap at breweries across the country -- a testament to their brew quality. It's always fun to spot their very distinct logo! One caveat I should mention is that they don't really have food. Sometimes they have a pop up, but the place doesn't open every day. It's not the easiest to find food in the neighbourhood if you are hungry at some random hour after drinking. So come with a full belly, but leave some room for pints and have some fun! read more

I'm from Indianapolis but love to stop in for some games and a beer when I am in town. [[HIGHLIGHT]]My brother took me here to start my bachelor party as a meet up spot and everyone seemed to have a great time and the rooftop is awesome![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Awesome, oversized venue. The main floor is huge, with tons of tables, cornhole, ping-pong, and plenty of room to spread out. Honestly, there's so much space it almost feels like it much be a challenge for them to figure out how to use it all. And just when you think you've seen it all, there's more. If the weather's nice, definitely head up to the large rooftop deck, which has its own bar, bathrooms, and a view. It's a perfect spot to relax with a drink. The beer selection is solid, with a good mix of sours, ciders, and traditional brews. I couldn't really find what I usually look for in a NEIPA (that seemed to be the case across much of the city), but their take on it was still good. Either way, there are plenty of options to sample and keep you entertained. I could've easily spent more time here, but we already had a couple and needed to head off to dinner. Great place for groups--especially if you need space to spread out. One heads-up: there are a lot of stairs to get in, and even more stairs to reach the large rooftop deck--but there are elevators if needed. TIP - If you're trying to avoid driving (and parking), take advantage of the city's free streetcar, the Connector, and hop off at Stop 11. It's easy to use with near zero experience because all the streetcars run the same loop. No need to worry about which one to take--they all go to the same places. Cars come by each stop every 10-15 minutes. Uber is also a decent option in the area. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]What a great vibe![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Was allowed to bring in some outside food, so walked down to Findlay market to get some grub. Great beer selection, and [[HIGHLIGHT]]only complaint was the number of stairs to get up to this place, and parking can suck.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]What a massive beer hall[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]], the staff were very welcoming and the beer was very good. I got the chocolate stout and it was excellent read more

I guess the best thing you can say about a brewery is that their beer is good. They have a nice selection and it rotates. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Rooftop is great in the nice weather.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My only disappointment is that they don't serve food, which they tell you, but there aren't many places close enough for pick up or delivery. Not their problem, just something you need to be prepared for if you go. read more

My lady and I have been to Rhinegeist a few times and always enjoyed it. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great beer, great staff, and the place itself is very cool.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] When we heard about a plant swap event coming, it gave us a great excuse to go again, and we enjoyed it too. They had plant vendors and other vendors all over the place. They had food vendors there as well and we loved The Empenada Box so much we bought one of every empenada they offered. Of course, the brews were pouring, as well as specialty cocktails made for the plant swap. I really like that they do so many special events like this and do many more. Even if an event isn't going on, the place is great to visit for some epic brews. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There are plenty of bars all over the place to get a pint or two.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Definitely check out the rooftop bar.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Don't worry about seating because this brewery is big enough to accommodate LARGE parties and still have room for more.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Even if you don't drink, they have something for you with lots of nonalcoholic options. I think my lady and I should visit more often. read more

Came here on a rainy Saturday afternoon and it was the day of the Derby. Our group scored a high top table and enjoyed the brewery. Most of the group were not drinkers, but we enjoyed the pretzel and beer cheese. I walked around the brewery. What a great place to hang out. read more

I love Rhinegeist beers and it was fun to visit their taproom in the heart of a historic Cincinnati brewing district. They had a great selection of special beers to try in pints or flights, including imperial and blood orange varieties of Bubbles, ciders, sours, and more. There is a ton of space and seating and even areas to play beanbags. There were families hanging out with kids on the picnic tables. Food options were mostly snacks like soft pretzels and a pizza vending machine (?! I want to see this in action). I'd love to come back in the summer and try the rooftop. read more

I had Rhinegeist circled as a place to visit in Cincy for weeks before our trip. (I drove 10 hours to visit the city and truly enjoyed it except for this place) I wanted to see the architecture of the building, try out their beers and enjoy a Saturday evening. The guy at the door told us we could not enter at 7:55PM because in five minutes my son (under 21) would not be allowed in. Gave no reason. We walked over a mile to make Rhinegeist a part of our trip to Cincinnati, but couldn't even walk through the building. Rhinegeist really pissed me off. I've been to breweries all over the country and I've seen dogs, people with infants, families, grieving families after a funeral etc etc at all hours of the day. I wasn't even allowed to talk to anyone about it. I tried to explain how far we just walked and was shooed away by the door man. Their website clearly states - Kids are more than welcome to visit the brewery! All children must be accompanied by an adult at all times. We were greeted at Northern Row down the street with open arms AND STAYED AS LONG AS WE WANTED TO!!!! I'll never drink another Rhinegeist Beer again for how they treated me. Especially in front of my son. You made my kid feel like he was a boat anchor. He was apologizing to me. Nothing to apologize for, just piss poor management. SHAME ON YOU RHINEGEIST read more

When we said we were going to be in Cincinatti everyone was saying we had to check out Rhinegeist. We have had some of their beers before but it wasn't necessarily at the top of our list. First the parking. There is a small lot across the street which was completely full. There also was no handicap parking available.We circled trying to find street parking without much luck. The one lot was pretty expensive, especially just to have a beer. We finally did find a lot a few blocks away. We managed but it was tricky in my wheelchair with sidewalks in pretty sad shape. Once we got inside and took the elevator up you come into the main taproom. It is huge with seating areas at both ends and a wide open space in the center with cornhole. The bar is all the way at the opposite end. There were kids running around and it was quite loud so we found an unoccupied corner to sit. They have a decent taplist, nothing crazy. I selected a barrel aged stout they had on. The beer was just ok. There was nothing wrong with it but it also didn't stand out amongst some of the great beers we were having on our trip. Overall I'm glad we checked it out but I doubt returning will be a priority. I would definitely recommend going on a weeknight when it hopefully wouldn't be as crazy. read more

We passed this brewery on a hidden brewery caverns tour and our tour guide said we should stop by so we did after the tour. So many fun things to look at from the time you walk in the door, all the way up the stairs until you get to the big open area bar up top. Lots to do up there. Cornhole and other things and then the bar had lots of options. We learned about a special brew on our tour made from over 100 year old yeast called the missing lynq which my husband tried. I'm not a beer drinker so I asked for some recommendations and did a flight with four different brews. We all laughed bc the one beer on my flight that smelled the absolute best was amazingly sour. I was able to drink it though. Very different. The other three were fruity and almost had a wine cooler like taste which worked for me. My husband liked the missing lynq he tried. read more

This place was recommended from our airbnb host! We spent my boyfriend's birthday night here and had such a great time! We didn't have high hopes because we didn't look too much into this place before going, but we're so surprised how much fun we had! Upon arrival, you climb up 3 flights of stairs and once you get to the top, it gives an old warehouse vibe. It's a huge space! There's cornhole, pingpong, and lots of tvs! When we went, it was march madness so lots of people watching. The bar has tons of options and a very clear menu! We got flights and were surprised when they were only about $10 each! And you get 4 drinks (about 3oz each) so you can try whatever you want. We did 2 flights each totaling around $42 which we thought was a great price! Def recommend if in the area or bar hopping. Everyone was super friendly too! read more

As of summer 2025 they're going through an outside remodel. Parking was a bit of a hassle as it's located on a pretty busy street with just one public lot across street. Inside the building is amazing though. Huge old warehouse vibe and it feels like different stations where you have some seats work laptop users, bathrooms, drink ordering, merch ordering, and a pizza machine. And in the middle of it all are picnic benches with a couple mini golf holes and ping pong tables, perfect to keep my kids busy. Beers are all average to a bit above average, nothing spectacular but solid. Feels like it's mainly slanted toward soccer fans as they have a lot of soccer on big screen TVs. Probably the #1 brewery spot for out of towners. read more

It was hotter than hades on the rooftop but I'd love to come back on a fall day. Loved the cornhole, ping pong, and mini golf options indoors. Massive interior and great beer/sour/cider selection. read more

Rhinegest is the pinnacle of what Cincinnati is all about. The atmosphere is perfect for a cool brewery in a unique space. I love the corn hole too. Their beers are delicious, my favorites includes Juicy Truth and their Bubbly options. They have both beer for beginners and experienced IPA lovers, and options for people who aren't into beer. The outdoor patio is beautiful and gives great views of OTR. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]A very fun environment![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The bartenders were helpful in all of my selections and the beer was great!

I talked to a coworker about going to a trivia night here. I happened to spot her and invited her to join my friend group at a larger table. She mentioned her other friend would be joining us with some cocktails. A few minutes later my high school friend appeared with those cocktails. I had no idea they knew each other! We chatted for hours and had a great time playing trivia. Anyways, hope you liked the story. I love this place read more

Living four hours away I've enjoyed sampling on a Rhinegeist beer here and there. I've especially enjoyed their IPAs. During my recent visit I had the HOP Pantry and my wife had a less hoppy option. Both beers were fantastic. I've had Truth and Dad prior to my visit. Venue itself is great. We were here at 12:15 PM on NYE. Easy free parking, pleasant staff and family friendly. If you are in Cincinnati, especially the Over the Rhine area you definitely want to stop. Great vibe , I'd go back in a second, especially later in the day. read more

We are always on the lookout for a new brewery especially when we go out of town. Hubby found Rhinegeist while in Cincinnati for a wedding last weekend so we decided to check it out. First impression, this place was huge! Large indoor taproom, awesome rooftop area and private event spaces. They really have it all! Now for their beers aka the best part! We tried quite a few of them. Cheetah, Antelope, Uncle, Franz, Cincy Light - all very good! I liked their selection of beer styles, something for everyone! While they had a nice variety of beer to choose from, they also are big on ciders. The bartenders were all pleasant and helpful. My favorite area was the rooftop. We even got to enjoy a sunset during our evening visit. Overall, awesome atmosphere and delicious beer! read more
