student,
Are you one of dem homebrewers? Ever make it up to Brewmaster's Pub (south)in Kenosha?
First Thursday of every month (7pm) is the official informal meeting of the Kenosha Bidal Society. At least it used to be. Bring a six pack of your finest and stroll on in! You'll be welcomed, try to keep it a secret you're from Illinois, at least til they know ya.
