3 Miller Holiday Lights- December 8th Eighteen MBC members and one guest, Robin (Ken and Sandy's daughter) enjoyed a cold winter s eve at the Miller Lite Brewery Tour. A short video, a lighted musical walk to view the light show with music and a bit of snow flurries, and then a short tour of the Miller Cave before we all headed to the Stables for various beer tastings accompanied with pretzels and visits by Bernie Brewer and the Johnsonville Sausages. After an entertaining tour, we headed to McGinn's on Bluemound for a bit of warm food and libations. A great way to start the holiday season. Welcome to Freddy Miller s House Sam & George.
