Summer-like weather is lingering late in the season. Let's see if we can get one last outdoor gathering in this year! We'll have a social at Olbrich Biergarten next month. There'll be craft beers, N.A. options, snacks, and a beautiful view of the #MadisonWI skyline from across the lake. Please join us!
In case the Biergarten is closed (eg., for rain), we'll relocate to the nearby Muskellounge
