Blue Cat is Back on Friday in Rock Island
Charlie Cole brought me in the first full pint off the new tap system in the first can that was canned at Brew Cat Brewing Company!
This is called "Baby Bahre" and it's a salted caramel Scottish Export beer. 100% of the proceeds of this beer will be donated to the Bahre family and Guinny’s battle which you can read about below.
Blue Cat Brewing Company opens in the District of Rock Island on Friday with 8 Blue Cat beers on tap!

DIY McRib
Everyone is rejoicing that the McRib is back! You can hear the chanting from down the block. Everyone is washing their hands a little bit more due to the bbq sauce residue and it's wonderful.
All is right with the world.
But it isn't always like this. The McRib will leave soon and we'll have to settle for a McChicken or a Double Quarter Pounder like a peasant. Life isn't fair. We know this.
However, my cousin Steve has figured out a way to beat the system.
He's gotten his hands dirty and experimented so we don't have to. He has perfected the DIY McRib!
Quad Cities Live Music Venues That Aren't Live Music Venues Anymore
Nostalgia Alert!.
We've compiled a quick list (by no means comprehensive) of venues in the Quad Cities that are no longer music venues but to us will ALWAYS hold a special place were we saw some great shows and made some incredible memories.
To many of us the live music scene wasn't just a concert here & there. It was an every weekend affair. And it didn't matter if it was a touring band or your buddy's band. We were going to be there with a beer in hand and scream along with guitars that were way too loud in a room that was improperly treated acoustically and make some bad decisions.
