Wisconsin Cheese Cow Lexxy’s Day Trip To Ashland
My travel sidekick Lexxy (the blow up cow to promote Wisconsin Cheese), always seemed to get the best view of everything. Ok, just having a little fun with her. Ashland was definitely my kind of town, and South Shore Brewing my kind of place to grab a great Wisconsin Beer. Another neat thing are the … Continue reading

20 Years Of Racing Sausages & They Show No Signs Of Aging…
I don’t have much to say on the topic other than AWESOME, and here’s a link to their FIRST RACE twenty years ago. 20 years of racing — sausages, that is. Photos (C) JS ONLINE via 20 Years Of Racing — Sausages, That Is….
City Brewery – The Private Label King Of La Crosse
La Crosse is home to City Brewery, which is home to the worlds largest six pack (see photos), a line mentioned in an episode of “House” during it’s last season (any mention of Wisconsin on TV catches my attention). Interesting thing about City Brewery is that they make a boat load of private label beers … Continue reading
Packers Beat Vikings & Beer With Friends, What More Do You Need…
Since making it to Lambeau was not an optoin due to a heavy editing schedule for the documentary, the second best thing was to hit a sports bar with family, friends, and a few hundred other Packers fans (and some Vikings fans as well). The beer was strong, the Packers even stronger, and victory was … Continue reading
If Frank Lloyd Wright Had Designed A Cheese Haus…
If Frank Lloyd Wright had designed a Cheese Haus it would have been Foster Cheese Haus in Osseo (just south of Eau Claire off of I94). They have some amazing cool Wisconsin Cheese as well, including bacon infused cheese curds like I’ve not seen anywhere else. Not only do they have great Wisconsin Cheese, but … Continue reading
Champions Sports Bar: Where Memorabilia & Beer Come Together
Champions is a terrific sports bar to visit in Green Bay any time of the year, but it rocks on game day. The collection of sports memorabilia throughout the place seems endless, and it ain’t just Packers memorabilia, but Badgers, an extensive Favre collection, and other Wisconsin sports team. Even so, the Packers collection is … Continue reading
John Hawks Pub in Milwaukee
Whenever I’ve got to Downtown Milwaukee to meet with my man Carlo at Marcus Theatres, we step downstairs to the John Hawks Brew Pub from some great English fair (or fish fry on the one Friday I was there). Love this place. Great food, great view of the river, espeecially if you sit out on … Continue reading
Bombers, Beers, Burgers & A Really Big Chair
Just happened across these photos again of Bomber’s in Milwaukee last fall, most well know for their Bomber’s Burger that was featured on the Food Wars last summer. I also wonder if the place might have been named after the Mitchell B-25 Bomber, since General Billy Mitchell was from Milwaukee and his presence is see … Continue reading
The Tipsy Cow In Madison’s Capital Square Is Divine
All we can say is, order the cheeseburger lunch special made with, get this, meat, bun, a slab of butter, and Carr Valley 5 Year Cheddar. That’s all! If you want onions raw or grilled, they’ll add that too, and the side of pickles is… Well just end up their and some point in your … Continue reading
