Maggie Ginsberg looks back at the prohibition era in Madison 100 years later.
Exactly 100 years ago, starting in November 1922, authorities began a series of crackdowns on the bootleggers and moonshiners in Madison’s Greenbush neighborhood, and Justo ultimately got caught up in the dragnet. Across 75 raids during one two-month period, police seized 4,000 gallons of contraband alcohol from the speakeasies and basement taverns of the flourishing...
These local brewers make their mark on Madison’s holiday beer varieties with one-of-a-kind creations.
Ken Notes: A great list and and an even better road trip to try them all....
Beermaking has traditionally been a man’s job. But the craft brewing industry — and pioneering women in the field — are changing that.And they are supporting each other through a group called the Pink Boots Society, a national organization made up of women in the brewery business. In Wisconsin, the organization has 55 members. It is open to women who work in all areas of the beer industry.
WisBusiness.com asked a former editor, Brian Clark, to scope out women in Wisconsin’s craft brewing industry.

Ken Notes: This is a MUST READ, I have no idea why it showed up in WisPolitics.com but you should reprint, share and post this.
Ken Notes: Wisconsin has also lost a few - I believe Wisconsin needs a marketing board (like Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin i.e. www.wisconsindairy.org). We also need to consolidate struggling craft facilities so we can build stronger regional and national brands... The article which is behind a paywall suggests there is a limited market but I believe we can exponentially expand the craft market by tapping into the market share dominated by Anheuser-Busch (AB InBev) & Molson Coors (miller) not to mention Heineken, Carlsberg, China Res Snow Breweries...

Best Wisconsin Restaurant: Tattersall Distilling
Cross the river to River Falls, Wisconsin, for an incredible showcase for an incredible distillery managed by Morrissey Hospitality. With more solar panels on the roof than any other distillery in the country, the real energy of Tattersall comes inside the large, open dining room.
River Falls has embraced it, and Minnesotans are crossing the border to enjoy the great cocktails and terrific food. A trout spread pays homage to the nearby Kinnickinnic River, and the brat burger reminds you where you are. It’s nice to be able to buy a full bottle of one of my favorite gins after finishing dinner, too, a limitation to the Minnesota law that was partially behind Tattersall’s expansion to the 715 area code. 1777 Paulson Road, River Falls, Wis.

OSHKOSH – A new distillery has entered Oshkosh`s lineup of breweries and a cidery, with a nod to a classic Lake Winnebago tradition.Sturgeon Spirits, 2663 Oregon St., opened in November with its first product — vodka — available bottled or in cocktails at its on-site tasting room.
Owner Karl Loewenstein, a history professor at University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh, started distilling as a hobby about five years ago, and while his kids are in college and he`s almost ready to retire from teaching, he considered a second career. He bought the building in fall 2021 and spent the past year on opening preparations, as supply chain issues pushed back the original anticipated opening of last June, he said...
