Moerlein Lager House

The Moerlein Lager House is scheduled to open February 27 down on the riverfront.  Cincinnati Business Courier (h/t Cubs dad):
A pre-opening gala benefiting Cincinnati Park’s Explore Nature program is scheduled on Saturday, Feb. 25.
Moerlein Lager House will include a working microbrewery producing a full line of Christian Moerlein Brewing Co. craft beers, plus a restaurant serving spent-grain breads, hand-carved sandwiches and smoked rotisserie meats, foods similar to those served in Cincinnati’s beer gardens in the 19th century. It will have seats inside for 500 and an outdoor beer garden for 600.
The lager house is in the new Smale Riverfront Park, located near the banks of the Ohio River.
Moerlein Lager House will be open Monday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to midnight, Friday and Saturday from 11 a.m. to 1 a.m., and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m.
That sounds sweet.  I'll definitely stop there before a Reds game next season.  For more on 19th century Cincinnati saloon culture, check this out.
