Madison - anything new?

[emerge]

Thought about checking our Working Draft this trip, since I haven't been there yet.  Checked their tap list online, and they have 6 IPAs    a Vienna Lager and a Grisette

pass

Honestly not sure about any of the new breweries.

Barley Pop Tap & Shop on Atwood is good for draft variety, there's a 2nd location on the square, BarleyPop Live.

I'll probably try to check out the one downtown, although there are already quite a few spots with 30+ taps in the area.

Maybe I'm just too old for new things.

Old Fashioned is curmudgeon-friendly. BarleyPop on Atwood was quiet and had a smart tap list when I went a year or 2 ago.

You'd probably hate Working Draft, when we went every 3rd seat was a dog/baby/stroller, and it was SRO in the place. They had a good Kolsch and hoppy lager when I went though.

Good, overall.  Started with a heffe from one of the Milwaukee breweries that wasn't very good, but then I had a German pils, a Scottish ale, and a stout from central waters (one I hadn't hea.rd of before).

Tonight I hit up hopcat for happy hour.  1\2 price apps, 1.50 off beers, and 5.00 off burgers.

Started with an order of Vladimir poutine and an ale asylum heffe ... then a potosi pil s with a cowboy burger ... finished with a plaid panther scotch ale.
 
Then I went to cask & ale for a flight of 3 scotches, and then a 2 oz. pour of Octomore 7.1

Sounds good

$140, not bad. Did they tear down the truck parts place? I saw it on the map but it looked like it was located in a parking lot.

... a stout from central waters (one I hadn't heard of before).

Agreeable Interlude was the name.  8.9% ABV imperial stout that is supposedly the base beer for the barrel-aged stouts.  Good stuff.

WAIT. WHAT?
