ALT Brew

I have to say, I was a bit surprised to find ALT Brew tucked into a little unassuming tan building right next to the Madison Area Technical College. The inside was just the same, but with the rack of board games, shuffleboard, and arcade games I could see this place filling up on a weekday […]

The Lone Girl Brewing Company

Do you know what inspired “The Lone Girl” name? I didn’t either despite knowing of The Lone Girl Brewing Company for quite some time. Turns out it’s a pretty sweet story that will leave you going (awwww!!). There’s a nice little ‘about’ section on their website that will tell the story much better, but here’s […]

One of the founding breweries of the Midwest Hops and Barley Coop, Central Waters is committed to sustainability, amazing beer, and working with the locals to produce an amazing experience. I highly recommend taking a trip […]

The Great Wisconsin To-Do List!

As the snow begins to come down and I sit here sipping an Anti-Hero while Larkin Poe blasts in the background, I thought I’d share a little project I’ve been working on. With all the amazing options Wisconsin has to offer, I decided I needed to make a list. Below are 108 breweries, brewpubs, and […]

Blue Heron BrewPub

I don’t get out to the Blue Heron quite as often as I should. Located in Marshfield in the historic Parkin Place, the brewpub has great food, beer, and atmosphere. Originally a dairy processing plant, there’s plenty of booths and tables and a bar that wraps around a glass wall so you can sip your […]

Tine & Cellar

I wanted to start out 2020 with a place with one of the largest beer offerings in Central Wisconsin – Tine and Cellar has an astronomical 101 taps. Yes, one-hundred and one taps.  I was a little daunted at having 101 choices to make but the manager, Eric, was a beer lover’s savior. Knowing I […]

Bull Falls Brewery

Happy Monday yall! When I first walked into Bull Falls Brewery of Wausau, I thought ‘this looks like my uncle’s basement.’ So I wasn’t too surprised by the feeling of familiarity and comfort that came with it. Pale floors, oak chairs just like the set my parents had in the 90s, and peanuts on the […]

Red Eye Brewing Company

This was my second trip to Red Eye Brewing Company and both times I’ve been impressed with the energy and liveliness of the place. Having just celebrated their 10 year anniversary in 2018, Red Eye has become a staple to the Wausau area and a destination for those of us not lucky enough to live […]

Aaron’s Wine and Steins

Aaron’s in downtown Wisconsin Rapids has what my dad would call a ‘talk-about-bar.’ You know those places where conversation just flows naturally between strangers? That is Aaron’s. And there is plenty to stir small talk. Not only is the beer selection impressive, wine-os won’t be left wanting and the food menu has simple, delicious options. […]

Mikey’s Bar and Grill

Where do I even start with Mikey’s? This has to be one of my all time favorite dinner spots – especially on Fridays for fish.. but honestly, I get their Central Waters Fish and Chips every chance I get. Highly recommend. You really can’t go wrong with anything on their menu to be fair. With […]
