Greetings and Salutations my Friends,
“I have always known myself as somewhat of an adventurous person, but it was not until I tasted Old Milwaukee that I was truly sent on a journey”
– Sarah Moriarty (WTT Member #2)
One characteristic that makes Welcome to Thursdays so unique is our ability to be adventurous. We try to find the best and most unique spots in all of Milwaukee and this week is no different as we travel to MKE’s Smallest Bar. Yes, you read that right, containing a whopping 8 total seats, this establishment is meant for you to get away, even if for just a moment, from the crowded hustle and bustle of Malone’s and Club Brady. Snuggled right in between both Brady Street establishments, this bar is ready to provide mixed drinks and a small selection of beers to those looking for it.
Now I know what you are all thinking, how in the world are we going to all fit, as we are now averaging roughly 30 people a week (#blessed). But therein lies the fun, we have Club Brady and Malone’s to explore as well! The main point, is that all of us at least get to have a drink and experience this hidden Milwaukee treat. Just so you all know how amazing this place truly is, they are opening up specifically for us this Thursday – so we all need to show up and show them that they made the right choice!
All of this talk has me in the mood for an Old Milwaukee and poetry:
You will never see it looking from afar,
For there is a reason it is called Milwaukee’s Smallest Bar
When you get there, honestly there is no real reason to think
Sit back, relax, enjoy the summer night with a drink!
When a new friend shows up, always remember to yell that one phrase
Let your voices be heard by shouting “Welcome to Thursdays!”
This bar makes #75 on our journey’s list
So when you see me, please go ahead and bump my fist
We have come a long way and it is easy to see
The main reason, of course, is that great taste of Old Milwaukee
And of course all of you, my dear friends,
I hope with you this adventure never ends!
I end with a thank you and one thing that must be heard
I thank you, oh thank you for reading The Squeaky Curd!
Now please enjoy some Old Mil photo greatness!
Cheers my friends!
Your Co-founder and friend,
Jeremy Blandin
