There’s a container on the salad bar that’s dark brown with orange sprinkles on top. I took a scoop. Turns out it’s chocolate and French vanilla pudding layered with crushed butterfingers on top! OMG was it good.

Quick question about Leinenkugel. How is the original?

I have only had the summer shandy in AZ in bottles. Tasted like furniture polish.

On draft in Wisconsin, I drank too much.

How is the original Leinenkugel as a beer?

Used to do business with an injection molder in the Menomonie area.

They always wanted to to take me to steak houses, but I would insist on small taverns for meals like the OP.

Would kill for a traditional fish fry place in SoCal...

I haven't had a Pete's in years. I still have a t-shirt and a mug that I found while moving.

Too sweet.

I will save future tastings for Wisconsin visits.

The last beer that I had with my FIL was Spotted Cow.

There's one in Aurora called the Hitch N Post, and I've been to one in Wilton and one in Door County, lol.

I inherited my father's enjoyment of small taverns, and thankfully I grew up in/around Rhinelander, so they're everywhere.

I actually rinse off cans, started doing that when I got home with a 6 pack that was dirtier than it looked at the liquor store. Now I rinse off every can, just a quick spritz...

You should of posted the name of the place or more pictures for search purposes while you were there.

It's always fun calling up the restaurant while some random person on the internet that you don't know anything about is still eating there.

The Leinie's Canoe Paddler is most excellent, but they stopped shipping it to AZ. It is a smooth drink all day beer without excessive hops.   Shandy is for chicks.

I own a Pest Management Company in WI and can tell you from dozens of sanitary inspections every month in 4 counties in WI, the Mom and Pop places where it's not just their livelihood, but their main investment in life are MUCH cleaner than any national chain with their layers and layers of Pest Control protocols.
I will NOT eat Fast Food and will always opt for the local businesses. Because I inspect them. Sure....you may get that one or two local places that are nasty, but EVERY national chain is absolutely disgusting.
