Great views of the hills and city, good vibe and kid friendly. Merch is a bit hit or miss but the beer is too notch

Rhinegeist Brewery is sweet. The inside is massive, and they have games sprawled throughout (cornhole, connect four). There are lots of TV's and tons of large picnic tables. Not to mention the beer is great. If you're in the Cincy area, visiting Rhinegeist should be a must! read more

Rhinegeist Brewery is a testament to Cincinnati's vibrant craft beer culture, offering a diverse range of brews in a dynamic and inviting setting. From its inception, Rhinegeist has been a beacon of creativity and quality, consistently delivering exceptional beers that keep enthusiasts coming back for more. Rhinegeist is not afraid to push boundaries and experiment with unique flavor profiles, resulting in a lineup that spans the spectrum from crisp lagers to bold IPAs and everything in between. The staff are always friendly and able to give you beer recommendations if you're overwhelmed by the amount of selections. My personal favorite is Cincy Light or Water Melly. The brewery's taproom has an industrial-relaxed aesthetic with ample seating and a lively atmosphere. The main brewery room is completely open and you can even see where they are making the beer. The picnic tables make it the perfect place to gather with friends and even have a friendly (but competitive) cornhole tournament. Upstairs is a rooftop bar that overlooks Cincinnati's Over-the-Rhine neighborhood that is always fun for a date night. In addition to their stellar beer offerings, Rhinegeist also plays host to a variety of events and activities, from live music performances to yoga classes and everything in between. It's a hub of community, where everyone can come together to celebrate good beer and good company. read more

This taproom is so fun! We visited here once before and took a tour, which we recommend, but this time we just stopped by for a drink. They have so many options to choose from, some sold in stores and others only available there. There are plenty of seats and cornhole to play as well. A fun atmosphere which we are excited to visit again and finally check out the rooftop. read more

We did the tour and I'm thoroughly surprised more people don't! The tour was $10/pp but came with a chip for a free drink (a $6 value). So if you girl math it up that means that I got the tour for only $4 because I planned on buying a drink anyways! The tour guide was super casual since we had a small group of about 6, he had great insight on the processes and kept us entertained with facts about the beer but also the building and its history! You also get to see a lot of areas that are off limits or cant be seen from the main area. The tour isn't super long, I think we spent 30 minutes together total, but it was the perfect amount of time to explore the production side before returning to the guest facing side. And again, only $10!! read more

It smelt so bad that me and my sister (We are 13 and 12) had to go to the bathroom the whole time because that was the only place that didn't smell and I was literally sobbing. it smelt so bad that I have a massive headache and want to throw up. I'm shaking so bad and I feel as if I'm going to faint.. so once we got back to the car I ended up passing out. The only thing we got were waters. read more

One of our favorite spots in Cincinnati was Rheingeist brewery where we were able to walk up to the rooftop and enjoy beautiful views with high quality beer The main floor had awesome fall themed aesthetics (I was able to harass someone to take of me and my friend) and tons of space. I was particularly fascinated by the hills in Cincinnati and the Rhinegeist rooftop was the best place to take it all in! 10/10 recommend and I knooooowww we will be back! read more

Rhinegeist brewery has a great atmosphere. They also host events throughout the year at their brewery. We attended their Art on Vine event where local crafters are located in the brewery. It is a nice atmosphere to enjoy a craft beer and look at local artwork and locally made food. It was busy but nonetheless very enjoyable - especially on a cold day! Oh, forgot to mention that their beer selection is large and varied and each brew we tried was tasty. read more

Fantastic brewery! Been drinking Truth for years in Cleveland and finally visited here this past weekend. This place is HUGE. You can probably fit an entire village in here. The beer is tops, of course. Plenty of space to play games, watch games on the TV, or play corn hole! A must see if you are in the Nati! read more

Rooftop patio bar was amazing. Views were fantastic. The only disappointing thing about the day was that they do not serve food. They do have a pizza vending machine that did not work, but this is a venue that could easily have a kitchen attached. It would add so much to the experience. read more

Trick or treat i would love to take you on a Cleveland memory. I been MIA back in PHX so new things coming I strive to write the best . It's the juicy truth Rhinegeist cincy made truth Oh we're does this beer lova start. Pop open a can pour into ur fave chillin glass and let the flava take ova y'a mouth like a shroom trip to Cincinnati JUICY TRUTH JUICY INDIA PALE ALE 6.5% ABV Some truths are juicier than others... The result of years of experimentation in the Juicy/Hazy IPA space, our Truth is, once again, found in the scintillating brilliance of hops. Brewed to unleash the mouthwatering, tropical notes and aromas of the generous hop bill, Juicy Truth delivers on the promise made by our iconic flagship IPA: always bold, always consistent, always fresh, always delicious. Brimming with notes of juicy pineapple, fresh mango and bright citrus, our brand new, year round Hazy IPA pairs perfectly with logging off, daydreaming, and enjoying everything life has to offer. Juicy Truth is available in cans (including new 19.2oz cans) and on draft. The world needs more Truth. By Rhinegeist read more

Had a really great afternoon visit at Rhinegeist brewery and the weather made it all the much better! You definitely need to make sure you check out the rooftop (which I wasn't even prepared for but was an added cherry on top of this already awesome visit that included beer, flights and game area and lots of stairs). you can also get buckets of lager if that's what you're into but for somebody who is into tasting lots of different awesome beers I would highly recommend. read more

Most amazing venue. Megan and Cass were wonderful to work with. Very responsive and helpful. The venue was perfect for the party. The bar tenders were excellent. I highly recommend the lounge room for an event. The food by Gomez was also very good. I recommend them as well. Thank you for making the party a success! read more

Rhinegeist Brewery converted an old bottling building into a great venue for the Cincy community! They have a great selection of beer, ample amount of seating, and a great atmosphere for family and friends. The staff is great, as they helped me choose my flight of beer, and my favorite was Franz, their Oktoberfest. Rhinegeist has a rooftop seating area, so I can see the rooftop being a great place to hang out on a nice warm day. Also, they use their venue for wedding receptions, as I saw a bride and groom taking photos. Will be back again whenever I'm in Cincy! read more

"The Truth" is defiently the truth! The best IPA I've had this year. If the rooftop is open that is a perfect place to grab a beer. They have a few beers that have a logo next to it to let you know its on happy hour. If you're a beer lover you're going to enjoy this spot. It's not too far from the University of Cincy fields and stadiums so it's a good spot to check out before a game. read more

Rhinegeist is a Cincy classic for a reason. My fiancé likes IPAs, while I'm more of sour fan, and we love coming here because we're both always able to find something we like. We stopped by for a quick brew or two on a chilly Saturday afternoon, and were pleasantly surprised to find so many people inside! While the rooftop was closed, they did have several cornhole stations set up inside, which is such a fun use of their warehouse space. The employees working at the bar are always friendly, and extremely knowledgeable about the beers they're recommending. You also can't beat the prices ... $6 for a perfectly cold beer on draft. I usually like to try something new when I'm here, since there are some brews you can find in the taproom that you can't get in a store. This time, my favorites were the "Wowie," a fruity ale that tastes like a Pina Colada in beer form, and the "Press Tart," which was a fun, pink-ish color that was deliciously sweet and sour. We also love OTR Chili ... it's like a slightly elevated version of Skyline. The chili fries are a must if you're planning on having more than a quick drink. We can't wait for the weather to warm up so we can once again frequent their fantastic rooftop! read more

I have been a long time time fan of their beer, so when I was in Cincinnati I usually go with the flow of what my family has planned, this was the one location that I requested to go. It's awesome! I love the location, it's so massive! There is so much going on. Yard games happening in the middle, as well as the "brewery inter workings" They also have games going on some different TVs. I had to get a flight to work my way through some different beers that they offer, and everything was delicious and flavorful! We also got a tasty pretzel with some dipping cheese, I also had a great classic burger that hit the spot and was needed after a long day of family time adventures (drinking tour of the city) My cousins also popped over to pick up some pizza that was also very tasty. I had a great time and can't wait to get back read more

I'm from out of town, and I have never been to a brewery this large! I was worried there wouldn't be many options for beer dislikers like me but they had multiple options. I loved the atmosphere here! They had tons of TVs, plenty of long tables and high tops, and bags. Although it was busy, there is so much space to hang out. Next time I'd love to check out the rooftop which I heard is nice as well! read more

This is an absolutely incredible space. Top 5 brewery tap room I have ever been to, and I am a pretty major craft beer fan that's been to 100+ breweries. The space is HUGE with a ton of games an activities, tvs, etc. There's also a large rooftop patio with tons of seating options and space heaters. We intended to come for one and ended up staying for a few hours as the soccer game was on and then we enjoyed the patio for a bit as well. An absolute must in Cincy. read more

Rhinegeist is a true staple within the Findlay Market area. What would we ever do without them?! :) I've been to this beer oasis more times than I can count. For Movie Nights, Drag Shows, Bike Conventions, etc. I especially love the Candlelight Series where they bring in a string band to do killer musical covers!! I attended the Queen tribute and it was spectacular. The ambiance upstairs was so sleek and intimate - well worth the money for that experience. And have you seen their Rooftop during warmer months?? Awesome view and outdoor bar! One of my favorites in the city. I've had lovely dates and wonderful gatherings with friends up there. Rhinegeist is also great for wedding receptions and watching sports. With a wide variety of rotating drink options, you'll always have a reason to revisit. read more

My son loves a good beer. He even tracks every beer he tries on the internet. So on a recent trip to town I brought him here. Totally missed there was an elevator, so trudged up the stairs and counted it as cardio. We had several beer flights, taking them up another floor to a rooftop where we discovered we could have bought them there! Oh well... Loved the view and the beer. A good time was had by all. read more

Holy massive brewery Batman. This place was one of the biggest breweries I've been to (and I've been to a lot). Over 50 taps between two bars and that's not counting the rooftop bar which wasn't open while we visited. The place was packed but we had no problem finding places to sit or stand and enjoy beers. Next time we come we will plan a time they have the rooftop open and maybe a behind the scenes tour. read more

On a trip to Indianapolis, while at a Costco, we were able to get a case of Truth by Rhinegeist. This beer was very good (pairs very well with lumpia and pancit) and I still have some left - I'm trying to savor it. And because of that, we had to make a trip to their brewery. There's a very small parking lot across the street and we just pulled into a spacious spot. Social distancing was being followed and we waited in line to get in. Some folks had reservations and they were able to walk right in - like a Fast pass at Disney. The wait wasn't too long and our server provided a quick taste test of a number of beers. That right there is excellent customer service - what a great and friendly impression on out of towners. We were asked if we wanted to go on the roof top but that there would be a wait. We said yes, thinking it wouldn't happen but lo and behold, we got the go ahead to go up top. The interior and roof top are both incredibly spacious by the way, and the views of Cincy are just beautiful from that vantage point. The sunshine, the variety of beers, the architectural views - I'd be here daily if I lived close by!! We were planning on having dinner elsewhere but they do have food options. This is an absolute mandatory visit whilst in the brewery district of the Queen City. read more

All the beers we had were fairly decent. Our bartender wasn't very knowledgeable about how the beers were brewed and had to look up our questions about production on his phone. We ordered a soft pretzel and it must have been days old as it was hard as a rock. The beer cheese that accompanied it was coagulated and had mold. read more

No real food. A giant beer hall that smells like spilled beer. Service was pleasant. Some bags and ping pong and other games to mess with. It had beer. Some were good. Some were not. Go if you just wanna drink beer. read more

This place is great! Was visiting Cincinnati over Christmas and came here on Christmas Eve. My first thought when we got there was this place is massive. It is in an old warehouse building I'm guessing and it is just all open. They had cornhole for people to play and a projector with Christmas movies. It had a bunch of big picnic tables for people to sit at near the cornhole and a handful of bar top tables by the bar. At first I ordered a flight of beer to sample what they have. I got four beers and the bartender was very helpful in suggesting some beers to try. The way they have their menu behind the bar I really liked. Each beer is on a poster with some information about what kind it is and what flavors it has so I really enjoyed that. We even got some beer to go. They have a limited food menu that is mostly chili. My boyfriend and I got the 5-way for the chili and it was pretty good. You can order food at the bar then you'll get a text when it's time to go grab your food from the window. Overall this was a cool chill brewery and I'm happy we went. read more

If you're looking to try some local beer in Cincinnati this is a solid option. We decided to stop in on our way back downtown after a trip to the zoo. For starters they have a parking lot with free parking and if that is full there is plenty of street parking. Once you're all parked and inside you have two options, you can drink in the gigantic beer hall or you can head to the roof. We opted for the roof. The roof is a fantastic place to have a drink or two. The only issue is the lack of shade. As someone who is tries to limit his time in the sun the lack of shade was very disappointing. Having portable patio style umbrellas would have really helped. I feel like their beer isn't exactly my style but that didn't really detract from the experience. I was able to find a few that I enjoyed. Another big plus is that they have food. We ordered a soft pretzel and man it was good. The service was great. Employees were organized, friendly, knowledgeable and took COVID seriously. I would totally return. But I'd probably opt for the beer hall instead of the roof. Not having plenty of options with shade is what keeps this from being a five-star experience for me. read more

Having had many great Rhinegeist beers, I wanted to check out the brewery. As we walked down the street we missed the unassuming entrance. We ascended the stairs and the doorway opened to a large beer hall with many picnic tables, corn hole, ping pong, shuffle board etc. We hit the bar for some beers. They had plenty to choose from. We also ordered a pretzel. I appreciated that I could order everything at one counter and did not need to walk over to OTR chili to place the food order. We then ventured up to the rooftop patio. This patio was great! Great views, another bar, and plenty of seating. The beers were delicious, you are sure to find something you like. Would definitely go back! read more

Wonderful first stop on our self-guided tour of the Brewery District in Cincy!! Great industrial space (don't miss the views from the cozy rooftop!!) plenty of seating, great service, and tons of choices for just about every beer lover's tastes. Table service vs. going up to the bar now, in times of Covid, but thanks to the attentive staff, we never had a very long wait. I enjoyed a chocolate/coffee porter, and the Mr. had an IPA and a rye-based brew (sorry, can't remember the names!!) Lots of special events held here, including TWO weddings (!!) earlier on the Saturday we visited. Helpful hint: Take the tram to get here, there's a stop practically right outside the entrance!! A great choice in the OTR/Brewery District, don't miss it!! read more

Rhinegeist brews are pretty popular in Pittsburgh and I love the bubbles, so when I was in Cincy I knew I wanted to make a stop here. I came on a Friday afternoon and there were only two other patrons in the skylight room. The "host" working at the entrance of that room at the top of the stairs totally ignored me and was on his phone. I stood at the stand for a minute and then asked him if I could sit down or see a menu or talk to someone? Like hello, how unprofessional! I was immediately turned off. He gave me a menu, but I ended up walking over to the other side of the skylight room where you can buy beers and merch. The girl working over there was much more helpful and professional. I was hoping to grab a pack of the bubbles but they were out of 6 packs to go. I got a 6 pack of the zango crush, which I ended up liking. It's a cool atmosphere, industrial-modern space. I would come back and sit at the rooftop bar or something and hope there's a better host. read more

LOVED, LOVED, LOVED this place!! I want start by saying that Rhinegeist is doing everything in their power to make sure they are taking all precautionary measures during this pandemic. It is very clean, socially distant, and the waiters come to you at your table (no walk up bar service). Since they didn't offer flights while we were there, we decided to try several different half pours. For $4-$5 they will pour you a half cup of any draft. I tried mostly ciders and ales, while my boyfriend was a bit more adventurous with his selections. My favorites were by far the semi-dry cider and the Zango! We cannot wait to go back to Rhinegiest if we are to visit Cincinnati again! read more

This place has been on my radar for years, and yesterday I finally got to it. Amazing beers in a cool, industrial atmosphere. They have cornhole and board games, that you can play. Very friendly service, and they had cool merchandise items to browse and buy. One place they could improve would be with food/snacks: they had a very dry pretzel with no dipping sauce options (no mustard, beer cheese, etc). They allowed outside food, but I would've stayed and spent longer if they had their own beyond some small offerings like bagged chips. read more
