I was at Burgers & Brew last year. It's a great idea and it is fun! I was given free tickets from friends or I probably would not have gone....for Wisconsin, it's kind of pricey for my budget.

I felt that the veggie red-rice burger was way too dense and flavorless, and smothered in too much mayonnaisey sauce; the Lombardino quail egg burger (which they are reprising this year) was beautifully presented but just all right tastewise (mine was too overcooked overall for my liking), but I loved the Bluephie's burger with pickled vegetables. It was just the right blend of sweet and spicy. And it was sorta fun to walk around and try to pair up your burger with different kinds of local beers. The Sprecher sodas were pretty tasty too.

I'll be interested to hear the reports from this year's event.

Always nice to see a Midwestern mention (that isn't one of the bigger cities) here on AHT.

@The Costuminatrix: Thanks for the info! I'm glad to hear a report from an AHT member. :) I don't like beer so I probably wouldn't go to this if I could, but the burger options sound interesting.
