Free Beer Next Monday at the Library

OK, so that title is an utter lie. There will be no free beer given away at the library next Monday. But there will be a whole lot of free talk going around about beer and the history of brewing in Oshkosh. Monday February 25, at 6:30 p.m. in the lower level meeting rooms A-B of the Oshkosh Public Library, I’ll be giving a sudsy overview of Oshkosh’s incredible history of beer making. I’ll be covering everything from pre-civil war brewing in Oshkosh up through today’s craft and homebrewing scenes in our city. Ron Akin will also be on hand displaying pieces from his unrivaled collection of Oshkosh breweriana. Ron and I will also have copies of our book, The Breweries of Oshkosh, available for sale and signing. The talk is free and open to the public and it’s going to be good time. It’s all about Oshkosh beer, how can it not be!
