With my kids and my sisters at my folk’s (now empty) house. My local sister brought this.

Enjoyable time...
Back in business not too long ago, they claim to be members of the original Rieger family but word on the street is otherwise. They have a nice place but I haven't tried their whiskey.

A couple of Negra Modelos on tap while out with family.
:D
I like Modelo much more than their Pilsner, Especiale.

Tomorrow night Granite City taps their PBJ Ale which is a 6% ABV Brown Ale. When I first learned of it I thought "probably not for me". But being malty brown & not hoppy, & with with chocolate & peanuts with just a hint of Rasberry jelly, aged in a Rye cast I'm curious. Probably won't go for the tapping party but I will give it a try.

Tonight it was 2-Pulls & Laphroaig Islay Single Malt Scotch.

Hi, I used to live in Wichita with two Granite City restaurants. They both closed and I do miss it. OKC has a LOT of breweries now. None are close to following the German Beer Purity Law, but one called the Battered Boar stands out. They make a 8 to 10% Pancake and Syrup Stout, which does taste like pancakes and maple syrup.

Not a Brewpub but THE place in Wichita I remember was the Steak & Ale.

Yesterday, stopped into one cool in-a-Golden-Era-space bar - The Campbell - for a cocktail with the girlfriend. The lighting made it hard to get good pics. The first two pics are ours from yesterday. The next two are from the web and the link is to the bar's website where you can read a bit about its neat history and see more pics:

Enjoyed the link reading about the restoration & viewing the Gallery. Took the liberty of lightening up your two pics.

Here's one I need to make it a point to visit more often. Only reason I don't is the distance from home, but I was in the area today & stopped only to learn that weekdays this time of yr they don't open until 5:00 PM.

Great job on the pics - they look much better, thank you.

O'Malley's & Sons looks fantastic - where is it located?
