I suspect a clean ferment and good ingredients helped. My wife got some type of donut beer in a six pack to go. Chill vibes and nice outdoor area. The bartender helped us build a fire. At some point the owner of the brewery enjoyed the fire with us for a short while and had a nice conversation and entertained some questions about what it's like to run a local brewery and about the fest beer recipe inspo. The highlight of the night was sharing the fir with "Sir Deuce", a local mug club member. We exchanged quite a few stories about travels and life experiences.

We'd had a nice lunch and just wanted to rest and chill for a while before continuing on to Minnesota. You can't miss the big wolf sculpture out front and when we saw the brewery sign we thought we'd stop in and check it out... so glad we did...! First off, there's an attached bicycle/hiker/camper outfitter right next door. Walk to the back and there's the brewery. After perusing the offerings board, I chose the apfelhaus... a little tart, a hint of sweet, a lot of goodness... a great brew to sip while sitting outside pondering our recent experiences and looking forward to the ones ahead. Staff was friendly and answered all of our brew questions. My only disappointment is they were out of the compass long-sleeved tees which I like to collect on my travels, but I know if I'm ever back in the area we will stop here again if only to taste some of their other offerings and maybe be able to stay awhile and have more than one...

My partner's Lake Superior Fish Tacos ($12) were also excellent, with the only regret that they weren't more of them. Finally, the service was excellent: we wanted to catch the sunset at the Cornucopia Beach and they rushed an order of trout out to us so we could make it. The combo of great food, excellent price and outstanding service make Fat Radish a definite must visit in Bayfield County.

We've been trying to visit all the tap rooms and micro-breweries in our region, (not easy because…read morethere always seems to be a new one opening up). This week we made it to Some Nerve. There is nothing fancy or trendy about this place. To me it seemed to be a hybrid "dive-bar-up-north-tavern" with all the requisite furnishings from vinyl upholstered bar stools to Green Bay Packers posters and other "up north kitsch." But -- we came for the beer. And the beer was not bad. I had a five beer flight, while my non-driving companion tried several more of the twelve selections on tap. The flavor profile of each selection was spot on. The wheat beer was wheaty, the stout was thick, dark and chewy, the Oktoberfest evoked visions of singing "Ein Prosit" in München. My other selections were satisfactory and my companion enjoyed his as well. With the proliferation of micro-breweries nationwide it's virtually impossible to visit all of them. And it's equally difficult to stand out from the crowd (and get four or five stars from me). But I can recommend stopping here for some beer and checking one more microbrew tap room off your list.

The beer selections were good local beers with only be $6 a pint, very reasonable. My girlfriend got the beer battered & it looked amazing. I was craving something blackened or Cajun & loved my decision. Many places will give the non fried fish choices much smaller pieces but here they did not do this. For $20 it was right on point from a price perspective compared to most Wisconsin places nowadays. Also sweet potato fries not being extra was great. Great indoor decor atmosphere. Very nice place to catch a meal on a weekend night in town.
