Beer brats and German fare · Cincinnati
Cincinnati beer brats are Bavarian-style bratwurst simmered in beer and grilled, served at the city's old-line German rooms with sauerkraut, mustard and rye bread.
Cincinnati's German heritage came in two waves: post-1830 from Baden, Wurttemberg and Bavaria, and post-1848 political refugees. By 1900, German speakers were the city's largest language group. Beer brats, mettwurst and sauerkraut became staples in OTR taverns and the western German neighborhoods. The Moerlein Lager House on Joe Nuxhall Way carries the German brewing line at the riverfront today.
