01 — About Us

A LOVE LETTER TO COLUMBUS BEER

Columbus Taps started in 2013 with one idea: give Columbus a place where a plumber, a professor and a punk rocker all argue about hops — and all feel home. We’re independent, family-run, and obsessed with Ohio malt.

Housed in a restored 1890s brick bottling house on Front Street, we pour 40 handles with ruthless freshness standards: lines cleaned every 2 weeks, kegs dated, IPAs never older than 30 days. Our Cicerone-certified crew will find your perfect pint in 60 seconds — or the taster flight is on us.

BEER FOOD, ELEVATED

Smash burger and fries
Smash Burgers • Pretzels • Wings

Double smash $13 • Beer-cheese pretzel $9 • Smoked wings $14 • Vegan brat $12. Late-night menu till 12am Fri-Sat.

Pair it like a pro:

  • Hazy IPA + Hot Honey Wings
    Sweet heat cuts the haze, tropical hops lift the honey.
  • Dortmunder + Pretzel & Obatzda
    Malty lager + salty chew = Bavarian heaven.
  • Barrel Stout + Brownie Sundae
    Bourbon vanilla meets dark chocolate. Dangerously good.
