    I'm going to be in Cincinnati for a wedding next weekend with plenty of time to kill. Any great beer bars, cocktail bars or bottle shops I should check out? I was thinking of stopping by Dutch's and the Moerlein Lager house. Also great midwest beer recommendations are appreciated as here in CA I can get beer from as far east as CO and that's it.

    Some great beer stores in the Cincinnati area are Jungle Jim's in Fairfield, OH, Party Source in Bellevue, KY (just over the river), and Party Town down in Florence, KY. Jungle Jim's has some great craft beers. Party Source probably has the best selection of imports in the area. You can browse their selections and inventory on their website (LINK). Party Town probably has the best growler station (LINK).

    Check out the Hoperatives website (LINK) for a nice, up-to-date weekly listing of beer-related events in the area. As for good bars, be sure to check out the Christian Moerlein Lagerhouse next to GA Ballpark.

    deadonhisfeet thanks for such an in depth review. Hoperatives is an awesome resource, I wish we had something as condensed.
