This Saturday we will have @bigwoodsbrass back in the taproom! Imagine all of that brass against the stainless. SHINY!
Big Woods Brass is an 8-piece horn band that has a big sound like New Orleans brass brands and they pay a surprisingly wide range of music.
You don`t want to miss this one.

Our new Heritage Cider is a best seller in the taproom!
It`s a `scrumpy` style cider, which means it is a traditional, cloudy hard cider which we made from heritage apples from the @1913kickapoo orchard in Southern Wisconsin.
We had Kickapoo cold press the apples into 550 gallons of fresh, red and cloudy apple juice (which including the skins and seeds) in the same manner that the Irish and English have been making scrumpy cider for hundreds of years.
Dan then fermented it into an amazing, dry and semi-sweet hard cider. Yummy.
Stop in and try some!
