Beer

Wisconsin Amber

Loosely based on Vienna style, Wisconsin Amber is a rich, malty lager balanced out with mild hop bittering and enticing hop flavor. Very fulfilling. Very drinkable.

Island Wheat

A rare brew, the Island Wheat, is enjoyed by a wide variety of beer drinkers. Light beer connoisseurs find the refreshing mildness to their liking. While those who prefer a more robust brew, appreciate the complexity of the wheats used. This hazy, golden hued beer with its dense, rocky head is sure to please.

Fest

This wonderful beer has a deep golden hue and a smooth malty flavor with a clean pleasant finish. Imported German malts are used to create the flavor of this festive beer.

Wine

Sycamore Lane Chardonnay 2006
The smooth, round texture and creamy apple, citrus and peach flavors of the Sycamore Lane Chardonnay are balanced by crisp acidity, making this Chardonnay akin in style and quality to more expensive super-premium California Chardonnays.

Sycamore Lane Merlot 2006
Sycamore Lane produces a smooth, easy drinking style of Merlot. It displays fresh, cherry-like varietal aromas, with hints of tobacco and herbal spice. Medium-bodied, with a smooth texture and soft tannins, it boasts rich, lingering flavors of cherries and plums.
