You got that right, Suzanne. I love that sound.

I thought that WAS a photo of me on their beer can. Seriously, though, that brewery visit sounds like a great idea.

The Feeshko loves pastries & such. She would provide some great counseling and bakery companionship.

I've thought about doing beer reviews, but I know too much about beer. I think it's goofier to write about something I know very little about. That would be wine.

We’ll we’ve been needing to come back to Minnesota, and the Surly Assertive Bastard has always been a top drawer for me. It sadly looks like it’s no longer offered, but this fortified wine looks like an excellent substitute.

Looks like the perfect pairing.

Nothing like sitting in a dry tent and listening to the rain beat down, even better than a Minnesota dessert wine!

A visit to their Eau Claire brewery seems like a can’t miss stop for your next tour. They might even put your photo on the beer can

!!!

Whoa!

I think I’m gonna need some counseling. Is the Feeshko available to give a gal some help?

Meanwhile, I think I just need some space. I’m going to stay here in California while you gallivant around the upper Midwest.

Beer is an important part of any bike tour. Wine reviews are always good for any journal, but beer reviews would be welcome too.

Sherbet is okay as long as it's in one of those cardboard cylinders and you have to push it up from the bottom with a plastic stick.

I probably better not tell you that I don't particularly care for bakery goods either, for fear that you'll dump me on the spot.

You really are confused. Surely there's some decent wine in Australia to straighten you out.

I honestly don't care for wine, I just like to review wine.

We like wine - but it has to be sweet, not what you bought. Lots of sweet wine in Ohio!
