You want a Burger with that? A Cincinnati brewer flips back a legendary brew

Updated

If there was ever a time to bring back a budget beer, it's right now. And fans of the Cincinnati Reds will be sure to appreciate the return of Burger Classic beer. The hoppy helper not only supported the local Reds back in the day -- gaining a following that would be difficult for most small companies to match in today's marketing-choked culture -- but it was also one of the few beers the U.S. shipped to overseas troops during World War II. After many years in retirement, Cincinnati-based Christian Moerlein Brewing is reviving the once-famous Burger -- launching it, The Cincinnati Enquirer reports, at the Reds' Hall of Fame on May 29.
