NORTHERN ROW BEER
We brew a wide variety of beer at Northern Row with quality lager being a primary emphasis. Crafting exceptional lager beer is our tribute to Cincinnati's long legacy of beer making and honors our brewery and taproom which is housed in the former stock house of a notable pre-prohibition brewery built in 1895.
While rooted in tradition, we also look forward, continuously exploring new avenues by brewing innovative ales. Quality is our compass at Northern Row where we believe that the essence of craft beer is the relentless pursuit of brewing better beer.
