Big Wood Brewery hopes to set up a taproom in White Bear Lake (zoning code update required), Northgate Brewing is opening early this fall in Northeast and will make English session beers, DeRusha digs Cafe Levain and praises the short rib burger, a construction boom in Lowertown could bring some new restaurants and bars, Madison will soon be home to a local grenadine by Quince and Apple and a Death’s Door Spirits distillery, and why you should grill clams, cheese, and other crazy stuff.
Town Talk’s front-of-house manager / bartender extraordinaire Nick Kosevich has been a hard guy to find recently — he’s busy preparing to open in late November a new bar called Instill Distill… in Milwaukee, of all places. If all goes well, a second Instill Distill may pop up somewhere in the Minneapolis – St. Paul area down the road. A safe bet: Expect old-school cocktails like Old Fashioneds and Sazeracs.

If it’s in Milwaukee, they will be BRANDY Old Fashioneds (sweet)!
