Central Ohio Wineries and Breweries

Wineries and breweries and tasting rooms, oh my! If you’re a wine or beer lover, visiting tasting rooms is a fun thing to do on vacation. Although Hocking Hills isn’t particularly known for its wine cultivation or beer production, we still have plenty of options when it comes to your boozy preferences. Including a few here in Logan, we’ve created an extensive list of central Ohio wineries and breweries close to Cut Above Cabins for your convenience. ​

​Hocking Hills Winery

​If you have novinophobia—defined as the “fear of running out of wine” by the Hocking Hills Winery website—make sure to stop by for a tasting, just a 2-8 minute drive from your cabin. Don’t miss the Vidal Blanc, a white wine completely grown and produced in Ohio. Order a charcuterie board while you finish out your tasting with other classics like Pinot Noir, Riesling, Malbec, and more. If you love your tasting selections, get the wine shipped straight to your home, a luxury that not all central Ohio wineries offer.

Brewery 33 ​

Visiting Brewery 33 is a different experience every day. On some days, you can expect live music, and food trucks on other days. A few consistencies include their Penny Porter, with notes of caramel, toffee, raspberry, and vanilla, as well as the Whispering Cave IPA, with grapefruit, orange, and apricot. Otherwise, try the ever-changing experimental beer on tap, as well as the rotating beer cocktail if you’re feeling adventurous. ​
