Bookhouse Brewing was a small brewery and taproom in Cleveland’s Ohio City neighborhood offering innovative and approachable beers and ciders brewed in-house in a cozy, welcoming atmosphere. Housed in a historic building built in 1866 originally as the Jacob Baehr Brewery, it preserved features like original brick, wallpaper, and tin. The taproom closed as of January 1, 2026, after 7 incredible years.
