Distilleries & Son Reis Project

Dennis Peters joins us again this hour. Our friends Jim and Suzi Ploetz join the show again as "competitors" in the Maino & The Mayor's Top Craft Pick promotion! They own and operate New Denmark Brewing and Duck Creek Winery & Distillery. They started home-brewing beer back in the early 1990s. In 2013, they opened the winery because of their passion for wine-making and growing grapes and after winning several amateur ribbons at the Wisconsin State Fair. After a few years, they wanted to get into creating distilled spirits. In 2018, they released several spirits: whiskey, vodka, gin, rum, brandy, and several flavored moonshines. Then Ashley McDermid flies in (almost literally) for the Heights Pub & Parlor Music Series. Today we welcome Jason Reisdorf, Jason Goessl and Ryan Thomas from "Son Reis Project." Their Facebook page explains their music thusly: "Son Reis Project (SRP) is a sonic exploration at the intersection of heavy metal, free jazz, and punk." All we know is that it was a fun and eclectic way to end a great week of radio shows!!
