Best comment heard..."Lemons don't lie." (when counting the lemons in a tall glass to discern # drank)

Records Fall...

Danke Schön!

Thanks to all for making WUW your destination event last night... wowza...what a great night with good friends on the river at Flatwater.

The Flatwater staff was so amazed that we ALL drank Blue Moons...and excited that we drank so many too...

WUW 7/15

hmmm ...

Coogan's has $4 pints of Blue Moon this month...

but the weather is nice... time to sit outside...where it all began...?

Flatwater? they have run out of b-moon twice now... hmmm--do they want our business or not?

...may try O'Briens Riverwalk Café soon... they say they have GI 312 Urban Wheat--may be $$$ since it's near Michigan Ave... anyone up for trying it today???

---probably stopping by Caffe Baci for a b-moon or two... 225 W. Wacker/Franklin

let me know your thoughts/suggestions...

----

Tried to go to CB...but they no longer have Blue Moon and the so called next wheat/weiss did not pass the Mueller test :)

So, Al and Deno and I walked to Coogan's for the $4 pints of BM...but we ended up going for the good stuff on tap...HPx3!

Saison and WUW-7/15

hmmm....

I read an article in the Sunday paper and am now wondering if it is a new summer drink for me....

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saison

----

WUW...I've gotten past the 2-week induction of Atkins (no alcohol) and am ready for an HP some place ... suggestions...?

7.8.9--nice date!

where to? Bergie, Elephant, Monks, other?

sadly, lemon water for me again…but not next week!!
----
Looks like it's Bergie/17West -- 4:45-5:00 --- should I have one/two? ... hmmmmmmmmmmmm
----

7/1/09

Stocks and Blondes ... (shhh...it's a good time to catch and pass MM in the total consumption category, since he won't be drinking--details at the bar)

----

WUW-Recap... even though I've previously 'cried-wolf' by saying, "I will be catching the 6:25 train for sure today :)" --I neglected to state it for 7/1, but I stuck to it for the 1st time...had to get home for fireworks w/ Lauren...glad I did.

Despite the water /w lemon for me, (recall it's not about the Weiss, although someone at the table 'should' be drinking one), the WUW forged ahead... Al/Scott/Deno/Melissa/Katie out till 8:30-10--- good times... thanks for coming out!! Heard there was talk of Trouble (the game) and of course FB/Twitter chat...

6/24 -- Millers Pub?

http://www.millerspub.com/

(prices have gone up here and a $1 at Sidebar last week...)

& the Weiss is a flowing!!

A special thanks to all those who came out for the kick-off at the Sidebar and to the 2-newbies-Jim and Katie...hope to see you again. (17)

W-U-W for 6/17

Guten Aben,

Anyone up for a Weiss tomorrow? I've been waiting for the warm weather to arrive and I think it's kind of here...
We can meet anywhere… Bergie, Stocks, Monks, Elephant, bar in my building…
