Well here are a few pics for those who are interested in beer, I took an entire weekend to check out a few of my fav local brews...

-Great Dane- Madison
-New Glarus Brewing- New Glarus
-Joseph Huber Brewing - Monroe
-Grays-Janesville
-Point Brewery-Stevens Point
-Herferd & Hops - Wausau
-Leinenkugels- Chippewa Falls
-Northwoods-Eau Claire

There are alot of great beers from WI that many dont know about, Most people have blinders on when they go pick up 6'r or a case, Most choose one of the big names that is well known do to in your face advertising, those major brews are brewed with the cheapest ingredients for quantity not quality. Next time support one of the Local WI brews and try either a micro brew or one of the better known leines for starters

:thumbsup:
I hope you tried the cherry down in New Glarus ... one of my favorites.

Yeah, so many great beers around here ... Lake Louis and Central Waters both come to mind as ones I've yet to visit, but get when I can. Not sure I've been to all you mention ... looks like it's time for a road trip!

Have you ever made the `great taste' beer fest in Madison in August? Tickets have been a pain to get the last few years ... but a great time, huge # of brewers and a good place to find some new favorites.

mmmm, beer. Great topic, love to see the pics.

My friend that was along on the trip bought a 4pack of the unplugged cherry. I have never had it, and never have made it to the taste fest, I have wanted to go to a few others there was one in Chilton earlier this yr and one in oshkosh missed both so far
