Christian Moerlein taking shape in Cincinnati
The Moerlein Lager House is under construction in Cincinnati and still slated for a November opening. The brewpub will be located along the Ohio River right next to Great American Ballpark where the Reds play. Christian Moerlein President and Chief Executive Officer Greg Hardman shared two photos with me. (See below) Others may not see beauty in those steel beams, but Hardman does. His passion is to restore Cincinnati's grand brewing tradition. (In addition to owning the Christian Moerlein brands, he produces Little Kings, Hudepohl and Burger Classic.) Christian Moerlein also is opening a production brewery in the Over-the-Rhine neighborhood near downtown. The production brewery, which is slated to fully open in October, will focus on the high-end Christian Moerlein brands and big beers. "Things are going great, man," Hardman said when asked for an update. "It's going to be spectacular."
