Standard Beer is a craft beer bar and store in downtown Cincinnati. It is described as a secret, cozy, and modernized place with a kitschy, laid-back vibe. The business offers a huge, diverse, and abundant selection of rotating craft beers, featuring drafts and carry-out options that are anything but standard, with many top-shelf beers not seen elsewhere. With 15 or more taps, it provides variety including smaller pours. The owner is super involved, hands-on, and fantastically kind, while the staff is knowledgeable, helpful, and genuinely happy to interact. Customers can enjoy the environment, play board games, and bring in outside food. Parking is noted as a challenge, but the experience is highly recommended.
Absolute hidden gem in the city. Best beer variety around

Amazing selection of beers and great atmosphere. Brett is always happy to help you pick your next new favorite. Cute spot for a quiet date night or lively action before an FCC home game. You can always take home beer or wine too!

Best beer shop in Cincinnati by a large margin. Love this place!
