March First Brewing & Distilling sits in Cincinnati, Ohio, and makes a point of delivering “drinkable” beers, ciders and spirits that put flavor front‑and‑centre, not fleeting fashions. The place is an indie hub that refuses to follow the herd, instead offering an eclectic line‑up that surprises both purists and the curious. With 36 taps rotating at any given moment, you’ll find anything from a hop‑packed IPA to a buttery cider, and even a handful of well‑crafted spirits that feel less like an afterthought and more like a proper addition to the menu.
The bar isn’t just about the pour; a delicious corn dip sits alongside the Cincinnati‑style dry‑rub wings (highly recommended for anyone who thinks wing sauce is a science). A solid selection of seltzers provides a refreshing break from the malt, while a pizza that consistently wins over patrons proves the kitchen can hold its own. All of this is served with a wink at pretentiousness and a sincere respect for craftsmanship – exactly the kind of place that makes you think, “finally, a brewery that actually knows what it’s doing.”
March First Brewing Cincinnati is praised for its welcoming atmosphere, with regulars frequenting the establishment. Great beer options, including seltzers and 36 craft beers on tap, are also a hit. Food, particularly wings and pizza, receives high praise.
