Jim now that's just wrong mixing a good porter or stout with anything.

I am not going to argue too loudly with that reasoning as I do mostly agree, but it has been done, and I did like it.

Now, this I completely agree with. Nothing should detract from that yummy nectar.

Black and Tan used to mean a coondog to me. Then those Dobermans and Rotweillers got more popular. The best slogan I've ever come across when it comes to coon hunting is " When the tailgate drops, the B.S stops". Lots of life is that way. I had a couple Sam Adams Chocolate Stout last night while barbecuing. The thought being that if the fire got away, I wouldn't feel bad pouring my beer on it. I got them in a variety pack and the Bohemie in me wouldn't let me pour it out. And I'm too nice to trick a friend into drinking it.

I once made the mistake of ordering a "black and tan" in an Irish bar. Got a lecture from an otherwise pleasant young man on Irish history that went on for about 15 minutes and ended with the question "why would you order something named after a murderous occupying army?" Since then I have ordered a "half and half".

While We did not get a chance to meet you last year, I'm sure we will this year. Do those girls eat candy? What kind?

Looks like we're going to be neighbors! We'll still be using our motorcycle camper so we booked tent site 130. We won't have an escape yet but we will have a river view. Our build sheet is due a week after this rally so I apologize in advance for badgering everyone with questions.

Looking forward to camping with you. We checked out the sites last winter and there's nothing wrong with any of them. You're certainly welcome to participate in our activities. You should really be solid on your build choices with numerous Escapes to review. How can you help badgering,?, you're from Wisconsin.!!!!. Get that big Hardly Dangerous out this weekend and Ride.

Hey Jim, glad you are coming back this year and exciting news that you have a 19 on order. We Wisconsin folks love being Badgered with questions.
Just watch out for those Iowegians, they come up with contests to take your beers away.

Looking forward to meeting you! The girls eat anything remotely resembling candy, we of course aim to be responsible parents and try to limit their sugar intake since they probably have a genetic predisposition to sugar addiction :guilty cough:

We hope you can add the dates to your calendar and plan to attend this year’s event.

Made a reservation for site 120. It may be the first time we get to use the trailer.
