You know you live in Wisconsin when....

Where did you get the idea that Nebraska is the top dairy supplier??? Even the Nebraska Dairy Association says that Nebraska is 10th in the nation in milk production per cow. And if they're 10th per cow, they sure as heck are not the number one dairy supplier. Reread the information from the link that you posted. California is the top dairy producer. Wisconsin used to be, long ago.

Oh cool, kudos for CA. I must've misread something. Ain't no thang!

only because they count almond milk as dairy in CA

And Wisconsin doesn’t? Not a lot of almonds in Wisconsin, I guess. You guys need to do something about that.

You know you live in Wisconsin if:
There are Winter Cyclone Storm warnings announced and you just shrug your shoulders, head to the KwikTrip and buy 2 cases of beer. And stuff to make sandwiches.

Oh, and gas up the vehicles and the snowblower. Then make sure you you fresh batteries in the flashlights and candles for back up. A couple bags of ice for the cooler.

Then make plans to work remote on the day it starts.

Good God... I'm in Madison right now. If I see anything like those I'm going straight back to Buffalo where it's warmer and there's less snow. We're hunkered down for the Thursday Wisconsin blizzard, but we have New Glarus beer and plenty of food.

When you get north of say Stevens Point, it seems nearly all the tavern signs are Old Style signs.

They must give them a real deal on em

Does Point Brewing not put up as much money for signs?

I spent a month's worth of the coldest days of my life in Wisconsin! God bless those who choose to live there.

The Spotted Cow secrets and mysteries....

It is not at extremes of hops or malt and has some thickness on the tongue so appeals to many or at least is not offensive. The limited availability is the simple matter of not pasteurized and not contract brewed in other places.

There was talk of Huber here. My first meeting of the New Glarus owners was of all things stopping in their new place on way back from Huber and another of my then employer's customers in Monroe. Their success has not been a surprise to me.

Huber beer is horrid. In my experience there's a noticeable "Huber taint" in everything they brew.
