Explore Waterloo's Night at the Museums 2018 event
We had a great turnout for our annual Explore Waterloo's Night at the Museums 2018 event. Folks enjoyed Hopskeller's Illinois Common, a pre-prohibition ale honed to a smooth, dark perfection. To round out the taste-bud tango, Schneider's provided four fantastic brat samples from their large selection of flavors. Event go-ers enjoyed a couple of long-time favorites, Jalapeño & Cheese Brat and Bacon & Cheddar Brat, as well as tasting a unique variety in the Garlic & Butter Chicken Brat. The best was finding out that we were some of the first to try a new flavor officially released the day of our event, the Hopskeller Brat. Beer IN the Brat. . .what a concept! Thanks Hopskeller and Schneider's for making our event a HUGE success.
