  • Built on Beer
    EXPLORE CINCINNATI AND NORTHERN KENTUCKY’S BREWING LEGACY FROM PAST TO PRESENT. by Cait Barnett 38 /// 2014 OFFICIAL VISITORS GUIDE Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky were, quite literally, built on beer. By the mid-1800s, 36 breweries were producing more than 30 million gallons of beer and digging underground lagering cellars and tunnels. One batch of lager at a time, Cincinnati’s so-called beer barons turned humble brewing operations into beer-making empires that prospered until Prohibition forced them all to close. Few reopened, and none survived consecutively into the 21st cen- Ctury (after operating for 114 years, Hudepohl Brewing Company closed in 1999). Now, in just ! ve years, the number of breweries in Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky has more than tripled. Craft breweries are on the rise across the country, but here it’s more than a trend. It’s a tradition that dates back more than 200 years. From touring original brewery buildings and underground tunnels to tasting freshly made beer (and seeing the process), there are countless ways to explore the region’s brewing past and present.

One of its earliest successes was the elimination of the separate school system for African Americans.
