We sit down with Ryan Blandford at Taft’s Brewing Company to talk about Italian Pilsner, a dry hopped Pilsner that is light in body, refreshing, crispy, dry with a floral and earthy hop flavor layered over the malt backbone.

We tour this brewery and others that have amazing Pilsner beers on tap. This one is especially unique and we dive deep into the history of this style with one of our most decorated brewers in the region.

Here at Cincy Brew Bus we are always looking at unique and fun ways to celebrate local beer and our great city. In 2016 Cincinnati opened up the Cincinnati Bell Streetcar Connector linking the Banks Neighborhood with Over-The-Rhine. This amazing resource provides a way for us to highlight fresh, locally made beer and Cincinnati’s unique architecture, buildings, and landscape. Born was our Streetcar Tasting Tour, a guided craft brewery tasting tour unlike any in the country. We visit three different craft brewers: Taft’s Ale House, Rhinegeist, and Moerlein Lager House, all very different from one another in scale, scope and flavor, riding around Cincinnati on the Streetcar in between stops.
