Christian Moerlein Big Hazy IPA

Christian Moerlein is one of the first breweries in the storied brewing history of Cincinnati.  As a transplanted Cincinnatian, I have always felt bad that I have never been a big fan of most of their beers.  That can change now!  Pale yellow-orange in color, this hazy has a light nose of orange with just a hint of pineapple.  Flavors of bright orange and pineapple with a mild hoppy-ness in the back.  This is the first of their beers that I truly enjoy drinking.  Not quite as intensely fruit forward as I like in a hazy, but a very good drinking beer.
