MAKE MORE! Geez.... My wife got the very last pour of it and finished the keg. A sad but grateful that she was able to get that last pour.

They carry some stellar ratings on Untapped and are the top brewery in Kentucky per Finding Beer. The IPAs were superb - especially James and The Giant Peacharine.

Hopefully we can get back to this place again sometime soon.

Bircus is as unique, fun, & cool as its name suggests/sounds like…read more Personally, I am not a huge beer or IPA fan, but I am a fan of cider. Please also note though that I am not a connoisseur and know nothing about the correct tasting terms. However, the cider they have currently (August 2023) is so smooth, you'll think you're drinking the best juice with a little kick ever. The fruit notes were not overwhelming and it was very smooth. It also wasn't too carbonated/bubbly tasting. I loved it and def recommend it if you want something refreshing yet super tasty. Secondly, the pizza. Believe the hype. You will not be disappointed in the dough, cheese, or other ingredients they use. The fact that they use San Marzano tomatoes also elevates their food. Lastly, the service is top flipping notch. Kaley Rose's voice and effervescence elevates the experience at Bircus. To have someone who is so welcoming, patient, & kind takes a business from just a good experience to a memory. The other employees were equally as nice and hardworking, so it's obvious that Bircus puts thought into not only their pizza and entertainment but also their drink variety and staff. A well-rounded place. 33/10 recommend.

The scene: The Ludlow Theater has been repurposed as a multi-use space-performances, food and a full bar. Circus decor is everywhere, and very festive. The vibe: very laid back, casual, local neighborhood feel, great for adults and kids alike. This is a real family place-the owners and their children are also circus performers! Bring the kiddos on a Saturday to enjoy a performance-tickets are on Eventbrite- search for Circus Mojo. We really enjoyed the audience-interactive show and the talent of the performers. Little kids will love it too. The brews: multiple brews on tap, including a gluten free mead and a gluten free cider. They were out of these, but also offer wine and mixed drinks. Homemade gingerale was delicious, and my companion loved the brews-he tried several options and will definitely return for the beer! The pizza: delicious hand-tossed crust, San Marzano tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, hand cut pepperoni was all delicious! Everyone in the group really enjoyed the pizza, and would return for it. As a bonus, there was free cotton candy during the performance. There was also popcorn on offer. Parking was on the street, but we arrived early and carpooled and got a front-door spot.

Stopped in recently for dinner after a Bengals game and had a great time. If you're leaving the…read morestadium area it's a 20 minute walk with some uphill, but well worth the trek to get ahead of the crowds. The bars near the stadium were mobbed. The seating is family style with long tables. You can order via QR codes (meh) or walk up to the side of the bar for food and drink. The manager came around and introduced himself to everyone and was all over the place. Helping in the kitchen, bar, cleaning up etc.. He's definitely an asset because he didn't disappear as the rush started coming in. The inside is nicely decorated and I was digging their Voodoo/skull theme. We settled in and watched the 4pm NFL game on one of the large TV's while chatting with some disappointed Bengals fans and locals. Beer wise they had a nice selection of classic Voodoo brews (we used to get them a lot in the Philly area several years ago), a balance of styles and some newer brews I'd never heard of. If you enjoy the dark side of beer the Where Our Secrets Go Imperial Stout was delicious and thankfully more along the lines of the traditional style Impy Stout. I had an IPA that I can't remember the name of, but it had a nice Belgian yeast/hop twist to it. My son enjoyed their root beer. Food wise the Jumbo Chicken Wings, roasted in house hit the spot, I highly recommend them. I added their Good Vibes BBQ "Sawce", but you can get them dry rubbed or chose from several other "Sawces". The wings were big with fresh meat and the sauce was great. The Pub pretzel we ordered was huge and the good vibes beer cheese complimented it well. The Mr. Pickles Fried Pickles were also a great choice for an app. They were a big portion. My friend had the Chili Mac and my son ordered the Lil Mashburgers - 2 little smashburgers oozing with cheddar & chippies off the kids menu. We ate, had a couple of beers and enjoyed our dinner at Voodoo before we explored more of downtown Cincy. I'll be honest I wanted to avoid BrewDog and Voodoo and experience home grown Cincinnati breweries, but we were really happy we stopped at Voodoo. Thanks guys you earned a fourth star for great friendly service from the manager and bartenders!!

We ordered extra hot wings, and the sauce was great but to make it "extra hot" they just added a metric ton of hot pepper or some hot seasoning, and it was nearly inedible. They were extremely over sauced. The fries were okay. My dry rub wings were good. It's basically self serve, you order on the website via QR code. They brought our food all at once due to that, to include the appetizer. Service was quick but we only saw our "waiter" once to deliver our food. If we had needed refills, we wouldn't have gotten them. We didn't even get silverware and only got one appetizer plate. The ambiance was nice, it's a great looking facility. I probably won't be back though, unfortunately. Just not great enough to bother going again. We did have one beer off the draft list that was good. The dragons milk.

There are menus you can grab there. If you get food you get a buzzer that will vibrate and pick up your food at the truck outside. They've got a dog-friendly outdoor space, which is always a win. Also appreciated that they offer canned soft drinks for just $1.75. Nice option if you're not drinking. The food truck was a highlight. The burger was cooked perfectly on a fluffy bun, and the fries were well-seasoned without being overpowering. Only downside, the $6 salad was pretty underwhelming. I'd skip that next time.

You order at the bar, but the staff brings the food to your table, which is convenient. It gets pretty hot inside, especially when it's busy. Not really their fault though with the heatwave.
