Long weekend in pictures

Friday I headed up to Chateau Lanisimo in Merrimack Wisconsin. Five guys, including me were heading up there with a primary mission of splitting fire wood to last the winter until the same time next year. Along the way and while we weren't cutting wood, we had some fun.


On Friday, we started with the Huber Brewery tour in Monroe Wisconsin. Unknown to us, the brewery was purchased by the Minhas family two years ago and is now the Minhas Brewery. Fortunately the GPS on my iPhone saw them as the same place.










Here are the new beers produced by Minhas. They also brew Berghoff beer, by the way.


















Here's the lobby of the brewery where the tour starts.










Two beers that Minhas brews behind the scene. The one on the left is 8% alcohol and the one on the right, I think it's Four-Zero, is 10%!!! Apparently both are sold most commonly in inner city stores of big cities. I didn't say that, the tour guide did.








And here we are. Smitty, LCJ and Bear Bill. Ricardo and Manual Labor Mike got a late start so they couldn't join us until later.












Here, Smitty is sitting on the best chair ever. You can sit either traditionally or turn it around. If you turn it around, there's a beer holder!!! Awesome.


















Here's a better shot of just the chair. Pretty sweet.














Late Friday, Saturday and Sunday to follow!
