Going to sticky this for a bit just because I love this event. For those who don't know, this ended in 2017 but had a good run before it. Basically some collabs were done (or in past years, one collab) and the beer was served at places all over the city. It just celebrates the wonderful beer city that Cincinnati is. Special tappings, knowlege events, etc. https://www.cincybeerweek.com/

RIP. I never got the chance to go but heard good things. More importantly, best of luck to the family through a trying time.

Maybe they can actually stock local bock beer for Bockfest again..
>The lagering vaults, according to that document, were to become a restaurant or a bar with “vast skylights and monumental stairs leading down into the space.” >FC Cincinnati scrapped that vision sometime between 2021 and late 2022, when it presented the new concept plan to the West End Community Council. It contracted with O'Rourke Wrecking in spring 2023 to demolish the building to grade level. Bait and switch. Expect nothing less from them.
Just a reminder there are a few events around town. Post more if I forgot something. - OTRberfest- Fri-Sun at Rhinegeist/Northern Row breweries. Goat yoga, etc. etc. Inaugural OTR Oktoberfest so let's see how it goes - Listermann turns 16! Saturday Sept 7 starting at 11am (IIRC). Good beer all weekend with some limited new items and old classic likes Brass Monkey. They have some cuvees, stouts, chickow variants, etc. so come on down and celebrate. Reminder- the restaurant is now open after being taken in-house so food and beer both available (and mead, etc. etc.)

I have included this one in the Oktoberfest megathread. We shall see how it fits. This obviously is the first time they're doing it and it's not a traditional style Oktoberfest though I am guessing Northern Row's parking lot area will be featured (maybe as the mentioned Festgarten.) It fits neatly in the Oktoberfest calendar between Germania and Covington. Prost!
I don't have an event post up this couple of months so this'll do. Listermann is having their 16th anniversary party **Saturday September 7 starting at 11am.** Also, as of yesterday they are doing their cellar sale so they have some like Coconut Fudge Chickow!, Barrel Wears Prada, Me Want Cookie Dough, and others for sale. Sadly they did not send a link that I can share- just an email newsletter. So hit up their social media maybe for more details.
>Mellotone co-owners Dennis Kramer-Wine, the former director of culture and founding director of distribution at nearby Rhinegeist Brewery, and Alexandra Nowell, a career brewer and founding brewmaster at Three Weavers, one of the largest craft breweries in Los Angeles, have been searching for the perfect spot for the past two years.

The original Market Wines is great. This should hopefully be too.

Post up new beer releases you're aware of. To start- #### Listermann - Bier Leicht We brewed this American Light Lager to celebrate everything Cincinnati Sports. Brewed with American pilsner malt and rice for a beautiful golden color, a honey malt sweetness, and a crisp dry finish. Ample lagering time and American Hops smooth this beer out to be an absolute crusher. - Festbier An annual Listermann staple, our Festbier honors Zinzinnati's rich German history. Brewed exclusively with Weyermann pilsner, Vienna and Munich malts. It is the perfect lager to help you kick off the celebration. Prost!

>On June 10 around 1:30 p.m., a large fire engulfed a 1,200-square-foot old farmhouse on the Mt. Carmel Brewing Co.’s property, located at 4362 Mt. Carmel Tobasco Road. >He’s hoping to have power back on in the facility by the end of next week, but it will likely take around six weeks to get the first round of new product back on tap. Being down for only a couple of weeks really knocks out inventory, according to Dewey.
>Humble Monk Brewing Co. is opening a new taproom at 4100 Colerain Ave., just down the street from its original location at 1641 Blue Rock St. Great news.

Not my cup of tea personally but have at it seltzer lovers.
Maybe it's just me but I feel like Urban Artifact beers were better when they weren't filtered like they are now. Feel like there is a dramatic loss of flavor compared to the pulpy goodness it was before.
