Big, open corporate feel with exceptional beer in a city that needs more brew pubs. BJ’s has excellent offerings, their kolsh, pale and nut brown are excellent and the food is great. I’m impressed and I’m going back!

Corner anchor to the Tri-county mall. Big, open area ambiance sort of a cross between a Friday’s and a real brew pub. Large variety of BJ’s beers(11 on tap with a monthly special beer), most of which are better than average, worse than the rest. Its way to big to feel intimate and too much of a franchise for me to feel at home so it might be an occasional stop, but it won’t me much more than that.

Easy to find location in the front Tri-County Mal with good parking in front. Clean corporate inside with wood bar and tables. Brewing equipment behind glass at the end of the bar for brewing soda. Freindly service with good knowledge of selection of 12 taps. All beers average drinkable with good selection of styles. Good food menu of starters, sandwiches and pizza. I enjoyed the visit.

Brand new place in Cincy. Very large and open in the interior. Very well designed and nice looking. Staff is new and a little green. With some time they should be fine. Plenty of house selections on tap as well as a few guest taps. Beers are hit and miss. Some really good selections and some others that really aren’t up to par. Would like to go again to try some other beers and the food.

Recently opened in Tri-County mall. Beer is not brewed on site, rather brought in from Chicago (from what I was told). The beer was average, dissapointed with their impy stout big time. I like the ambiance and openess of the place though, relaxing. The staff was all new hire so i couldnt really tell you how knowledgable they could be, but my server was definitely still learning about the beer. Still though she was on top of the service. Even bring the kids to this place. Overall, worth going to. Try the Nut Brown, and the Pirahna.
