Fun on the Web Oct 7 '09 Rehorst Vodka

Got a chance to see the Rehorst Distillery or rather Great Lakes Distillery bottling under the Rehorst label. It is the only distillery in Milwaukee and Wisconsin's first distillery since prohibition.

Although I have been on tours of breweries and wineries, I had never seen how liquor was made. I would highly recommend this tour and tasting for locals and tourists alike. During the one and a half hour tour you learn about how spirits are brewed and then distilled into varying products. Currently the offer Vodka, Gin, Brandies, and Absinthe with some seasonal Pumpkin Vodka. They promised a Rehorst Rum in the spring. I can't wait!

Fun on the Web Oct 6 '09 Funny

After noticing how trim my husband had become, a friend asked me how I had persuaded him to diet. It was then I shared my dark secret: "I put our teenage son's shorts in his underwear drawer."
