. . . on our way to Chicago, and we had a few calls to make in Ft. Wayne. After a fantastic lunch of "hot dogs" and chili and dumplings at Tony Packo's of M*A*S*H fame, we rolled into Ft. Wayne late in the afternoon. After securing lodging for the evening, we took a quick trip downtown to Mad Anthony Brewery for dinner. Great joint. I had what they call an "unwrap", which was basically a tortilla-like shell covered in delicious toppings (I opted for the Hawaiian). Great idea and a tasty treat, to say the least. Along with dinner, I partook in a sampler of their brews and a couple pints, their American Red and Imperial Porter. While what constituted the sampler was pretty standard, both the red and Impy Porter were super tasty. The Red was more of an IPA, only red, and the Porter was absolutely fantastic. They are currently barrel-aging the Porter to be ready in six months, making me want to schedule a return trip just for it. Overall, a great start to what should be an exceptional beer week, including stops at Three Floyds Brewing, Flossmoor Station Brewpub, and The Map Room in Chicago.
Stay tuned for some more jealousy.
Cheers,
Dave
