Muscatine

Ned....one of Wisconsin's papers had a front page article about a delightful new breakfast beer being produced at Madison's Great Dane Pub and Brewery.  Been there.  Seen it.  Like a candy store for grown-ups. 

Also quite an article about the kid who shot the Parkersburg football coach in the Des Moines Register.  Quite disturbing that the parents had seen so many odd behaviors, and yet this kid was still running loose. 

Fascinating website. 

The beer is described as kind of a wine/beer combo.  Hard to imagine, but I'd be willing to give it a go. 

I've also been to the Great Dane.  I know there are more than one in that town.  Pretty good food to go along with the micro-brew. 

Heads up fellas....Channel 50....a show all about beer.

Watched the Beer show.  Very informative, but I developed a powerful thirst.  Lately, have been enjoying some good old-fashioned Coors Banquet beer.  I remember the days....the 60's and early 70's...when Coors could not be bought this far east, and the stuff was like gold if you were lucky enough to obtain a case or two. 

Hy-Vee had a real good price on a case last week....16$ if memory serves me.
