The Queen City has always had a love affair with beer.
A new exhibit, Beer Fit for a Queen: The Art of Brewing in Greater Cincinnati, takes a look at the history of beer and brewing heritage in Cincinnati—dating all the way back to the founding of the very first brewery in 1806 by James Dover, through prohibition in the early 20th century and all the way up to the modern-day resurgence of craft and micro-breweries.
The exhibit features original memorabilia, photographs, lithographs and advertisements from Bruckmann, Hudephol, Christian Moerlein, John Hauck, Foss-Schneider, Gerke, Jackson, Windisch-Mullhuaser, Kauffman, Lackman and Bellevue brewing companies, among others.
Beer Fit for a Queen: The Art of Brewing in Greater Cincinnati coincides with the 26th Annual Bockfest celebration happening March 2–4 in Over-the-Rhine. The exhibit will be located in the Joseph S. Stern, Jr. Cincinnati Room in the Main Library Feb. 5–May 13.
