In the February 12 issue of Soapbox, I wrote about Bryon Martin's desire to build a brewpub in the former offices of Christian Moerlein, pending the City's approval of streetcars.
Here are some photos I took on January 26, the day he gave me a tour of the buildings.
Cincinnati Beer Company has also started a blog, which will hopefully be around to document the progress of what could be a Brewery District anchor.
The main office building itself, which was completed in 1878 with an addition in 1904, can be found at 2019 Elm Street (BIRD'S EYE), just north of Findlay Market.
Please click on each image to enlarge to 640 x 480. Photos will open in a new browser window.

The same can be said of a city. Well, maybe not the bit about the nukes. Our rich brewing tradition is a point of civic pride. Thanks to Cincinnati Beer and all the others for extending that heritage into the 21st century.

Er, excuse me please.
I can't wait for this one! We just have to hope and pray that City Council pulls through on the streetcar deal! Thanks for the pics!
Amen, to both comments....
