I love this so hard. What a story. So tragic and yet so inspirational in the telling. So relatable just coming from 2 regular cheese heads (sorry, fib here). We're definitely making a pilgrimage to your place this summer. Keep fighting the good fight. I'm sorry you're put in to the position to have to.

This is the America we now live in. No more freedom of speech. I’m so sorry for the injustice that you faced. It’s hard to believe we’ve fallen so far, so fast. I hope you find a way to seek justice for this horrible show of force. It’s ridiculous.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. My husband and I enjoyed your brewery on June 7th. It’s a small nicely designed brewery with friendly staff and patrons. Definitely does not give hoodlum vibes. It’s VERY Odd and Outrageous that so many police from nearby towns would descend upon your place. Within minutes. And arrest numerous people! We stay in Boulder Jct. 3 weeks this summer and we are not spending a dime in Minoqua…aside from your brewery. I’m telling others, too. What you’re going through is wrong! I hope this story goes national.

Just wow. Thx for sharing your stories guys. Id like to say im surprised but unfortunately im not in this political climate. I’m down in Green Bay but now I HAVE TO drive up to Minocqua to drink some beer. I hope some state charges are filed as a consequence of this incident. Keep up the good fight!

Thank you for telling your story and spreading the word of Gregg Walker’s and the Minocqua/Vilas County police department corruption. They all need to be sued! This has to stop!!!

I would contribute to a beer fund that pays for a beer for someone who has traveled a distance to support your business! Cheers!
