7.23 WUW wrap-up

simply put ... g o o d ~ t i m e s !!

a smaller group gathered at the dark-Monks to toss back some 9oz HP Weiss...oops that's 1pint and 0.9oz... a total of 14 comsumed by three attendees...not too bad (but remember, it's not about the beer)

things overheard at WUW...

~'he's the Weiss-President of the company' (vs. Vice-Pres)

~race car driver, professional bike-racer, award-winning novelist

~he's the Weiss-Master-General

----
orders are now being taken for Weiss-Up ball caps...very stylish...
----
Al will be doing some recon on Plymouth's this week to determine if it is Weiss-worthy...let's hope so...a roof top Weiss would be nice.

We'll be meeting at Stocks & Blondes this week and having a Leinie's Summer Shandy ~ Weiss Beer with lemonade ~ hey, that's a RADLER (& they're one SALE too)

I'LL BE THERE BY 4:30!


Leinenkugel's® Summer Shandy - Get a taste of the freshest flavor under the sun - Leinenkugel's Summer Shandy. A Shandy is lemonade flavored beer, a European favorite during the warmer months. And the light, crisp flavor makes it a great summer refresher. Each batch is carefully brewed using the finest wheat, malted barley and just a hint of real Wisconsin honey. Then, our brewmasters mix in fresh lemonade and citrus flavors to create an adventurous taste that's perfect for those lazy days of summer. Here are some comments from folks who have sampled our new brew: 'I thought Leinenkugel's hit a home run when Sunset Wheat was introduced; but you hit a grand slam with Summer Shandy!!! WOW!!!' - Bob Chrobak, Lake Zurich, IL. 'It will really hit the spot on a warm summer night around the campfire after a great day of fishing. Leinie's has another hit!' - Mark Anderson, Stanley, WI. Availability: April - August. Malts: Pale and Wheat. Hops: Cluster. Alcohol Content: 4.2% by Volume. Calories/12-oz.: 130. Carb. grams/12-oz: 12. Protein grams/12-oz: 1.2. Fat grams/12-oz: 0.0.
