Over-the-Rhine: When Beer Was King Tour
September 18-19, 2010
Join author Michael D. Morgan Oktoberfest weekend as he leads a special tour that that visits places and explains events that he writes about in his new book about early OTR history, "Over-the-Rhine: When Beer Was King".
The tour will travel the length of Vine Street, talking about early neighborhood history and politics. Participants will travel through the Crown Brewery, Kauffman Brewery, and end at the future home of the Christian Moerlein Brewery.
Both tours are the same, will be approximately 2 and half hours, and will start and end at the new Christian Moerlein Brewery (located at 1621 Moore Street) where there will be special Oktoberfest events all weekend long.
Tours are available with a specially priced copy of the new book, and all tickets include a beer ticket good for use at the brewery all weekend. Purchase additional copies of the book HERE.
At this time, no more online registrations are being taken. Walk-up tickets are available on a first-come, first-served basis for the following times:
- Saturday September 18 @ 3:10PM *SOLD OUT*

There are no physical tickets being mailed to participants. All participants should come to the future Christian Moerlein Brewery (located at 1621 Moore Street) to check in and sign waivers.
