You look familiar.
Do I know you?
It's good to be back.
It's
been a while.
My hands are shaking.
Yeah,
no kidding.
Well,
you've had a couple since we've seen
each other.
I
have, yeah.
I'm sure you
have, too.
Oh, yeah.
You've been a busy beer-brewin' delivering gentleman.
Yeah, well, it's that time of year.
You got to make hay while the sun shines, as they say.
Do you have any vendors out at EAA that bring your beer out, or is it just the restaurants
and bars?
More the restaurants just around the area.
TJ Harbor our friends over there they have the they have the golden keg right now.
Oh really?
Yeah, but yeah, they called us on Monday had just been slammed so we had to deliver two more half barrels form right away and I
wouldn't dare try and make it in the harbor during EAA week,
you know, we we actually we snuck over to Wentz
yeah
on Friday night and just had a great time at the fish fry Cheers
They were packed, but you know how sometimes the stars align?
Because they have the tent outside, and you can sit outside, and you put your name in to either sit outside or inside.
And it was like an hour and a half wait, which I'm fine with.
Yeah, they have cold beverages.
Yes.
But I went outside to put our name in, and then I come back, and I see my wife and daughter sitting at the bar.
And I was like the...
greatest Disney went because once you sit at the bar then you can order there and you eat there and I mean it was like we just had a blast and then and then on Monday we went and we actually went over to the EA for the first time I had been like when I was just a little boy so I don't really remember but my wife had never been and my daughter's never been so we've always talked about going and we got some tickets and we went to the sea base which was
Probably my favorite part.
You were right.
Did you take the bus?
Yeah.
Well, you were right across the street from
me.
Yeah.
That's it's been a busy.
I
feel like
I'm Grand Central Station.
Do you get the free tickets because you deal with the traffic?
We do.
Yeah.
We do.
Every year we get, I think it's, well, it's a good handful of them.
The neighbor and I, and
I think
one other neighbor gets some too, but it gets very
busy
there.
But yeah, we got to see, we got to see some take off, some land.
It was awesome.
The air show was great.
And then they had a country, country artist, Tyler Hubbard played Monday night.
So we checked that out and just had a great time.
I
worked there on Tuesday night for Red's catering.
It was like the sea base association party.
So
it's kind of fun.
Like I said, I'll drop you off at work.
Walked across the street.
Nice.
But it was
so windy.
Yeah, Tuesday.
It was crazy.
It was
like a north wind and they were probably a good 60 feet from the shoreline and they were getting sprayed from the waves.
Really?
Yeah.
Wow.
So it's pretty crazy.
It's wild.
But yeah, we we found a new while it's not new.
It's new to us liquor store in Oshkosh

saw your sign hanging up.
Okay.

Yep.
Kind of a neat area.
Takes all kinds.
It does.

That's the rumor.
I've been wanting to take Holly there on like a Saturday or Sunday and you know, visit the wharf and
things like that.
It's so cool down there.
It's really cool.

Lake Michigan is cool.
We went over to your been to Harrington Beach State Park.

Fly a kite at all.
I did not fly a kite.
I should have brought a kite.
Yeah.
That's where did they
have the kite fest.
Is that two rivers?
I think they do that, um, in the summer.
Oh,
do they?
Okay.
I know they have one in Milwaukee.
Um, yeah.
When I was going to school down there, they had that, but
yeah.
A couple of times a year, the badger does like, uh,
like a shoreline cruise where you can board for, I think it's like three hours.
There's
either a DJ or music and then hors d'oeuvres and drinks.
And then they go out around the shoreline of Manitowoc for a while.
And one year you could see all the kites flying from two rivers, which is really neat.
Yeah, that's neat.
Some of those kites are pretty impressive.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So anything outdoor activity wise for you lately, or have you been just brewing and shipping?
Yeah, just kind of, you know.

You know, everybody's ordering extra.
You meeting a lot of people from out of town?
Yeah.
