In true TBR fashion, I'd like to quickly welcome our readers from Milwaukee. Don't think I haven't noticed you... my eyes are everywhere. Just kidding. But seriously, Google Analytic's eyes are. Anyway, to help welcome Milwaukee, let's take a closer look at Beer City.
Some may wonder, "isn't Milwaukee basically a larger, more industrial version of Madison's dreaded East Side?" No. That's just incentive. How dare you compare the birthplace of Schlitz, Blatz, Pabst, and Miller to the home of Oscar Meyer. Not that the East Side doesn't have something to offer, but it's all within walking distance of the Square.

Was it the beer that made Milwaukee famous? Yes, yes it was. When you ask someone about Milwaukee, they probably won't acknowledge the city's Black Holocaust museum, Zoo, or Arena Football Team. They'll mention beer and maybe obesity, crime, and Summerfest. Old folks might harken back to Laverne and Shirley or Happy Days.
Eehhhhh.
"Woawoawoa whoa" The Buskus might proclaim, "what about the Bucks and Brewers." Sorry Buskus, I'd gladly trade both teams for a magnum of Schlitz, Blatz, or PBR. I've never been much of a Miller guy.
So friends, the next time you're consuming, think of our friends in Milwaukee and rejoice.
