Initiating at the Trail Tour Center on Race Street, this excursion exploring brewing history and architecture traverses the west half of the Brewery District, taking delight in the numerous lasting buildings from the 19th and early 20th centuries. The tour also recounts tales of those who either established or brought about the downfall of these beer companies during the beer’s industrial revolution.
The tours encompass an indoors exploration of the expansive lager cellars of the historic (but non-functioning) Jackson Brewery, as well as exterior visits to the Sohn/Mohawk Brewery, different Christian Moerlein sites, and the location of the Bellevue Incline. Entrance to the Jackson Brewery cellars is at street level, with no stairs to navigate either in or out, making these cellars rather accessible. The total distance covered on foot during this tour is under half a mile.
To cap off the tour, we make a stop at a local taproom for a glass of locally brewed beer, included in the cost of the ticket. However, non-alcoholic beverages are also an option.
For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.
