Lets just say it was a spectacular weekend.
Huge props go out to New Glarus for the Dancing Man Wheat and Totally Naked.
Also, everyone I attended with fell in love with the Trippel from Sprecher, though we nearly hurled when we tried the Pizza Beer brewed with Oregano
My friend Steve put it best when he said it tastes as bad as it sounds.
Our special Thanx goes out to the area Home Bre Club, LUSH. From top to bottom, their beers outshone nearly all the attending breweries.

Top it all off with a night at the local strip club (my wife was molested by Miss Nude Wisconsin 2009).

Great Day for Beer!!!
We will be back June 12, 2010.
Next year we'll bring our own pretzel necklaces.
