E-Malt.com News article: USA, OH: Wiedemann Brewing Co. to reopen in Greater Cincinnati area

Greater Cincinnati is about to get another brewery, and it’s a name some may know well. Wiedemann Brewing Co. closed in 1983 after more than a century in operation in Newport. Locals Jon and Betsy Newberry bought the rights to the name in 2012 and planned on reopening again in Northern Kentucky. The financing for those plans for that fell through, but the couple pushed on and found a space in Saint Bernard, investors and loans, the Cincinnati CityBeat reported on June 21.

On June 26, Wiedemann will open again on Vine Street in a historic former funeral home.

“We hope Wiedemann can help bring back the fun and community spirit that has been a big part of Cincinnati’s neighborhood taverns and beer culture for so many decades," says Jon Newberry in a press release. "We’re brewing some of the tastiest craft brews in town, and we welcome beer lovers of all ages to get together in friendly downtown Saint Bernard.”

In addition to "innovative, tasty and refreshing" beers crafted by brewers Steve Shaw and Austin Smith, the brewery will also have a full kitchen, serving sandwiches, sausages and appetizers for lunch, dinner and late-night.

The brewery opens at 4 p.m. June 26. Wiedemann's is located at 4811 Vine St., Saint Bernard.
