Baseball season has always been a little more important to Taft’s Ale House than to most other breweries here in Cincinnati. If you remember back to their grand opening in 2015 – it coincided with the Cincinnati holiday of Opening Day. Each year (when Covid isn’t a thing…) as the Reds celebrate the start of another baseball season, Taft’s gets the chance to celebrate a new year in business – and we get to do some celebrating around both events (I think we’re the real winners here, right?)

This year is no different. While the parade has been canceled, you can bet the folks are still going to get out and celebrate – socially distanced of course – and Taft’s is doing their best to facilitate an event that allows for just that.

It all kicks off at the Ale House, their flagship location, at 11:30am on Thursday, April 1st.

New Beer

First off… it’s not a proper celebration without a beer release, right? To celebrate their anniversary (and maybe more importantly) the start of spring and baseball season, Taft’s is kicking out their new wheat ale, called Walk Off Wheat. On opening day you can enjoy the brew for $1 off pints and $2 off six packs.

This new brew is smooth, and refreshing. The brewery says that it will drink easy through all nine innings and leave you ready to rally.

Other Ways To Celebrate

  • Swag – If you are looking to expand your brewery swag wardrobe this spring – the brewery is releasing new 2021 opening day t-shirts.
  • Food Specials – how do half-price appetizers during the game sound?
  • Kids Deals – If you’re looking to share the special memories of opening day with your kiddos, Taft’s is looking out for them, too. They’ll have free popcorn and baseball-themed coloring sheets.
  • A special surprise around town – Opening day isn’t just about one spot… it’s about Cincinnati as a whole. Taft’s 100% understands this and is throwing up some special posters around town. Keep your eye out as your making your way around for the chance for some Opening day freebies.
  • Washington Park – If you’re hanging out in the park with a pint of beer, you’ll also be happy to hear that for every Taft’s beer purchased you’ll get a coupon for a buy one pint get one half off at the Ale House through the weekend… and the park is going to be the place to be. 3CDC is throwing a party, with the live game on an LED screen – music, games, and all sorts of excitement.
