Today I had the opportunity to go to the tapping of the Christian Moerlein Christkindl Ale. The event was held at Christy's in Clifton; this building was originally given to Christian Moerlein's daughter as a wedding gift. What a great place to hold a tapping for a Christian Moerlein beer!

The event was a very cool event, literally. It was held outside in the biergarten and it was only about 40 degrees in the sun. However, there was plenty of beer to be drank, which helped all forget about the cool temperature. Mike Morgan, author of "Over-the-Rhine: When Beer was King" was the events emcee and did a great job getting everyone ready for the event. Greg Hardmann spoke a little bit about the history of Christy's and share a bit about the beer too. The tapping was done by a member of the St Francis Seraph, with $1 of all beers sold going to their ministry. In all, it was a very fun event.
