Although I'm neither a Werner nor a Willie, I wish I could. I had weiswurst for breakfast at Oktoberfest in Sept. Alas, it will be banana pancakes for me in Hawaii.

On a side note, I met a FT'er last night that has friends who live near your brewpub, he was interested, as am I, in a brewpub dinner Do down in your neck of the woods.

Any time; just let me know. I'll try to keep you notified about special events/dinners/tappings, or you can look at their website (linked above).

I am the aforementioned FT'er to which Sweet Willie refers and have eaten at Flossmoor Station a couple of times in the past year or so. Yes, I most certainly would be interested in a brewpub dinner Do there in the future. This weekend, however, Mrs. KMA and I will be basking (hopefully) in SAN and won't be able to attend the breakfast. Enjoy the Hefeweizen - Prosit!

Send me a PM if you want to meet up sometime. This is one of their current offerings, which I haven't tried yet (maybe tomorrow):
"Pullman's Reserve on draft. We took a Pullman Brown ale and aged it in a Bourbon barrel for five months. What we get out is an extremely complex, dark, delicious brew. Flavors of oak, bourbon, and Pullman Brown are equally represented and warm the belly at around 8%ABV."
A couple years ago they had a bourbon-barrel-aged Pullman called Moonbeam that was one of the best beers I have ever had.
