Standard Beer

Instant favorite bar for beer lovers. 15+ taps. Lots of variety. I enjoyed 3 different sours (they offer 5 oz pours in addition to pints). Bartender was great.

Excellent beer bar and market. Visited on a late Sunday afternoon. Bartender was very knowledgeable and helpful with recommendations. I'm a beer nerd, so I'm always glad to find these places where the staff seems genuinely happy to be there and interact with the customers. Highly recommended.

I travel to Cincinnati frequently on business, Loved this place and glad I stopped in! Huge selection of rotating craft beers on tap and bottled beer as well. Very unique, upscale and modernized place in downtown Cincinnati to enjoy a beer!

After a recommendation from a friend, this place quickly became my go-to for packaged beer as well as the occasional draft beer at the bar. I love being able to try a draft on tap and find it packaged in the cooler to enjoy at home. The owner Brett, is the one and only employee and very personable and so attentive. He runs this business so smoothly and offers the customer the very best experience!

Standard beer is a secret, cozy beer store in the heart of otr. They have a diverse and abundant variety of beers to choose from. The owner is a fantastically kind gentleman who will help you find something that you will love. He also has frequent rotating beers on tap. He allows food from outside restaurants because he doesn't serve any. So stop by, have a beer or 2, play a board game, and enjoy the environment.

This is the best craft beer bar and store near downtown Cincinnati. The draft list and carry out options feature beers I haven't seen anywhere else in the area and the owner is super involved and hands on to make sure you have a great experience.

Fabulous craft beer hang out. The owner knows his beer and curates the selection with skill and flair. That starts with 16 ever changing draft taps that'll take you from interesting sours, through superb hazy numbers and into some real specials. Always a couple of mainline options too such as a good German pils and an easy Belgian.

The building itself is immaculate. I thought it must be brand new open so it was a shock to learn the place is three years old.

Even the on street seating is of a high standard.

This is a special place. Well worth supporting ahead of wannabe craft in mainstream bars.

My favorite place for beer in OTR. Bret always makes us feel welcome even when the bar is busy and he is happy to let us try any of the beers on tap. Great range that changes regularly so there is always something new.

Just a quick stop-in for a taster and some to-gos. A quick look around is all you need to know this place is named horribly....the beers here are **anything** but standard.

Its pretty much all top shelf, okay some mid-shelf, but stuff i just don't see elsewhere. Parking is a pain but worth it. Kitschy vibe, laid back, totally dig it.

Nice place, Brett. 🍻

Great bottle, can & draft shop. Glad to be able to sit for a bit with a beer, if I lived in Cinnci this would be where I’d shop for crafted beer, recognized a few Chicago and Midwest beers too.

If you like craft beer this is the place for you! Standard Beer is our neighborhood bottle shop and is guaranteed to have a ton of delicious drinks. They get rare drops often so keep checking out their insta feed. Classy but casual place to sit back, have a drink, and ship for some goodies to take home.

The taproom was clean and organized well. The menu was up to date and easy to read. They have an amazing selection of draft beer and craft cans. The bartender was knowledgeable and super friendly. There were games for adults and children. We are looking forward to visiting Standard Beer again soon.

Stopped here before an FC Cincinnati game. They have a very unique and large selection of beer! Great service & clean space. Thank you!

Phenomenal bar/ bottle shop. While there are many high quality bars in the area, many fall into the trap of having the same things on tap (I assume everyone is using the same suppliers.) Standard beer consistency has a selection of beer that is new and unavailable in other shops.

Environment is comfortable and welcoming. 5/5.

Brett is awesome. Large selection and is very knowledgeable about his products. Love stopping in before FC CINCINNATI matches.

Highly recommend going to this establishment next time you’re in the mood for a couple beers. Endless options in several styles to choose from(ipa’s to sours, you name it they have it) ✅ definitely will be going back soon. Maybe after work

Absolutely the best beer draft/can/bottle shop in the city. Tons of unique beers from around the country and some from around the world. 16 beers on tap that rotate frequently so you're always getting something new every time you come in. Definitely stop by and make your own 6 pack or two!

Best place in the city for craft beer. They always have the best of the best and the most unique flavors. Stop in and build your 6 pack and then grab a good beer at the bar. Brett is amazing at making sure you’re taken care of and is very knowledgeable in all things beer.

Beer (and seltzer) drinkers paradise. The exact bar this city needed. Lots of craft options on tap and a huge selection of take home beers.

Brett is amazing. Support this great otr place. So amazing!
