Indeed Brewing Company Releases Giant for a Day Double IPA
MINNEAPOLIS, Minnesota – Indeed Brewing Company is introducing a new core beer to its lineup. Giant for a Day Double IPA is a limited release that will be available in Minnesota, North Dakota, and Wisconsin in March and April.

In beer years, a double IPA is ancient. Older, wiser, and, dare we say, better, Giant for a Day Double IPA dips into the rosy depths of nostalgia to create a familiar, friendly beast of a beer— one to sip on while making tall tales even taller. Drawing from the magnificence of the mighty redwoods, which grow at a slow and stately pace but are constantly in upward motion, GFAD taps into the roots of craft brewing while launching us forward...

Wisconsin Vintners Association Home Winemaking Club

Supporting Home Winemakers for More Than a Half Century

In 1970, budding winemakers did not have the internet as a resource. But what the Wisconsin Vintners Association’s Home Winemaking Club (WVA), which formed that year, did have was a wealth of knowledge in fellow winemakers to share advice and tips, and, of course, their homemade vino. That camaraderie continues today as WVA forges support and friendships among home winemakers and educates the community about amateur winemaking...

PARTY IDEA: Wineries & Breweries

grab a drink and more at those growing destinations for 21+ parties

A day-trip to a Western Wisconsin winery or brewery can make a great venue for not just a regular party, but an entire immersive experience. You can stay close to home or head out of town for a beautiful countryside drive to any number of destinations. While there, you can not only sample the brews and wines, but you can often take part in behind-the-scene tours, learn about the craft of making beers and wines, snack on a variety of food offerings, and of course do some shopping to bring home their local and unique goods and wares.

Leinenkugel`s selling heated shorts (with beer holster) to encourage a pants-free winter
We may never know why, in God`s name, a subset of cold-dwellers insists on wearing shorts in winter.

But Wisconsin-based Leinenkugel`s brewery hopes its new heated shorts will optimize the quirky practice once described as "both ridiculous and rebellious, crackpot and courageous, a kind of middle finger at both The Man and Winter."

On sale today at 11 a.m., for $55 a pair (leinie.com/sandyshorts), the limited-edition Leinie`s shorts have heating elements (powered by rechargeable battery) in the legs, an external bottle holster, and a cheerful lemon print to celebrate the return of the brewer`s seasonal, citrus-spiked Summer Shandy...

Nottingham Nectar aims to make mead more accessible to Madisonians and beyond

Nottingham Nectar creates a sparkling session style mead in four different flavors using Wisconsin fermented honey as the base.

Patrick Nottingham always wanted a winery, brewery or meadery included in his retirement plans. The self-proclaimed “beverage nerd” still has a ways to go before retirement, but his meadery, Nottingham Nectar, is already up and running in Madison...

...Each of Nottingham Nectar’s meads are uniquely branded. Nottingham Nectar has four different meads available. Hexes & Hijinx is made from Door County cherries, so it is sweet and tart. Bonfires & Battlecries is made for fans of pilsner and lager beers, but with a light, crisp finish reminiscent of a cider. Folklores & Fairytales is similar to Bonfires and Battlecries, but with a sweeter finish, almost like a sparkling white wine. Sagas & Serenades is the sour option, with acidity from strawberries paired with sweetness from honey...
