Hurt's definitive guide effortlessly toggles between history, journalism, and sociology to capture the breezy idiosyncrasies of Wisconsin bars and the peculiar imbibing conventions of their loyal patrons with an earnestness that reads like a Coen Brothers script if you're nonnative or a Ken Burns documentary if you are. As a proud former resident of the Badger State, who came of age and learned my craft there, I'm thrilled to see the varied state of Wisconsin's legendary drinking traditions-both new and old-portrayed patriotically in every tint of local color." - Jim Meehan, author of Meehan's Bartender Manual"Though most of us think of Wisconsin beer, we should be thinking of Wisconsin cocktails! Jeanette Hurt's book is a lively roundup of tipples, toddies, and tonics that will keep you warm in the winter and refreshed in the summer. Even the spiritfree will delight in Hurt's gem." - Cameron M. Ludwick, coauthor of The State of Bourbon: Exploring the Spirit of Kentucky
