All About 13 Below Brewery

Founded by a group of eight friends who wanted to bring the joy of beer (that they were all enjoying sharing) to their neighborhood, and the community around them, 13 Below has found its home in Sayler Park and done just that.
Sayler Park is 13 Miles past downtown Cincinnati (the farthest west neighborhood, actually) and they used this idea, along with a little bit of “river talk” – how riverboats commuicate with each other to showcase their space “13-Below” the city.
The taproom and brewery was opened back in 2017, and in the time since has been hit by multiple floods, and a pandemic, and hasn’t let any of it slow them down. They’ve leaned on their fans, their community, and each other to keep their focus on why they opened their doors in the first place, and in turn, their fans have shown up to support them along the way!
If you want to check them out, you’re going to have to make the trip out to Sayler Park. They’ve only got one location, and their beer, while available in limited-release cans out of that taproom, isn’t available in stores!
