“Love all the sours!!“

“This is a great place with so much history! the waitress, Jasmine, was friendly and did a great job!“
“This place is LGBTQIA+ friendly, and is the first Black and Asian co-owned brewery in Cincinnati. It is a great place to gather with family and friends.
The food was delicious and I love the atmosphere of Esoteric Brewing. They have some fun and whimsical fantasy decor along the bar. I ordered the honey cilantro chicken sandwich and from the first bite, it is so tasty. They were very accommodating and put the aioli on the side when I asked. During this visit, I ordered a mocktail as well and it was sweet and delicious.
My family usually buys cans of Esoteric beer to enjoy at home, and even though I am not a big beer drinker, I still really like the selection they have here.
They host karaoke nights occasionally, and the art on the walls changes every month as a new artist is featured each month.“

“Four buddy's and I stopped by for our first visit last night. Gus was on point with his attentive service and knowledgeable beer descriptions. Tried the Crazy Norse(I'm not an IPAer, but it was fantastic) and the "Route 9"(a smooth Lager) Outstanding!! 👍👍 The Cod sandwich was excellent!! Ashley's prompt support with the food and drink delivery helped to make our visit a highly enjoyable experience! We'll be back soon!!“
“Rhinegeist Brewery is THE best brewery in Cincinnati, period, end of story. I have been to 30 of them here locally. Not only do they brew the best beer, but the facility and service is amazing. It has such a unique feel to it... this place is a must if you are visiting or if you are a local who hasn't been.“
“An underrated place to stop in Cincinnati. They have a ton of limited beers specific just to this location along with the Boston Beers staples such as Cherry Wheat. Friendly service and a nice atmosphere. Definitely a good spot to check out if you are brewery hopping in the area.“
“**updating my original review from December ‘24. West Side management has reached out and shared that this previous manager is no longer working there. Our deposit was refunded and we all agreed communication could have been better. I appreciate their understanding and follow up. We enjoy the times we have had at the brewery and look forward to getting back again soon.
This one star is solely for the Management of West Side. I’ve been here more times than I can count, from random drop ins for a beer, organized network happy hours to birthday parties. My family invested in the original start up back in the day. They were one of my first places to check out when throwing my mom’s surprise 60th Birthday party. The booking process was fairly simple.. I would have appreciated more communication from management when booking but in today’s world I have very low expectations with customer service.
Day of the party came and I booked 3 extra hours for time to set up and make sure the space was ready. I made sure to introduce myself to all the staff from the kitchen manager, bar tenders (they were good) and taproom manager. Everyone was aware I was the organizer of the event and to reach out to me during for anything.
Party was great! My mom was surprised and it seemed like everyone was very comfortable in the two rooms we rented ($30/hr for 2 rooms from 4-11). I reached back out to the taproom manager for my $100 deposit back & received the unprofessional response attached. I did realize once we arrived at the party that my balloons had confetti inside of them which confetti is not permitted. Balloons are permitted though so unless we went around popping all of them there was no issue in my eyes. I did immediately asked for a broom so I could manage any mess during the party (which there wasn’t). I stayed after with my husband, mother (birthday girl), dad, and cousins to clean everything up spotless.
The second issue was around our guests eating food from the party next to us. This was one couple (65 years old) that got confused & didn’t realize this was not our party. We took over 80% of the party space so it wasn’t clear to them that there was even another party nearby not a part of us.
The fact that no one from west side even brought this to my attention is ridiculous. I would have happily apologized to the other party and purchased food for them to make up for what had happened.
From start to finish Colin at West Side has not been helpful and has been extremely rude. I feel like I need to blame the kitchen staff as well for not communicating at all.
Sadly I would not recommend West Side for any future events. They didn’t feel welcoming and seemed bothered by the 3 children there (out by 9PM) that were very well behaved & enjoying themselves.
The 30+ Cincinnati Firefighter brotherhood that attended is also disappointed to hear how this was handled and won’t be having any future meet ups here.“
“We love 13 Below brewery, especially for parties! We have thrown a countless amount of parties here ranging from my gender reveal to a surprise birthday for my mom. The taproom is great with even more seating outside where you can check out the hops! The Incline Smoke Shack has great food and lots of awesome deals, which makes the brewery a great place for a night out. If you’re not into beer they also have an extensive seltzer selection and wine and cocktails.“
