What's new in Middleton? Beer Here: Eisphyre from Capital BreweryRobin Shepard on Friday 11/06/2009 2:00 pm, (2) Comments, (7) RecommendationsJust when the gales of November seem to come early, Capital Brewery takes its warm, malty Autumnal Fire to an entirely different level with the special release of a winter-hardy version named Eisphyre. This intensely malty, yet incredibly smooth doppelbock is capable of taking the chill off. >More  Bawdy fun in Middleton Players Theatre's well-executed The ProducersJosh Wimmer on Saturday 08/15/2009 10:03 am, (2) Comments, (5) RecommendationsDid it feel like you were at a real Broadway show? Not quite -- the seats were more comfortable, the room felt bigger, and the set and costumes weren't so audaciously ornate. But you did get lost in the performance. >More Madison Mustangs: Too good for their own good?Jason Joyce on Thursday 07/30/2009Beating your opponents by an average score of 50-10 should be good news to a football team. But for Bob Gingras, owner and head coach of the Madison Mustangs, it's reason to worry. >More Beer Here: U.S. Pale Ale from Capital BreweryRobin Shepard on Friday 07/17/2009 1:00 pm, (1) Comment, (14) RecommendationsCapital Brewery and its brewmaster, Kirby Nelson, are well known among fans of German lagers, especially those who like the smooth, malty styles of Oktoberfest, doppelbocks and maibocks. Fans of the brewery also know that Nelson makes a handful of ale beers with brews like Rustic Ale and U.S. Pale Ale. Both are both clean tasting and very drinkable, but the pale ale caught my attention on a beer-buying excursion over the recent Fourth of July weekend. >More Tapas Rias offers inviting appetizers in MiddletonInviting Spanish treats in a shopping mallLinda Falkenstein on Friday 07/17/2009, (1) Comment, (6) RecommendationsTapas Rias, which focuses on traditional Spanish tapas, can easily seduce with its menu, and its calm, contemporary interior is a lovely, yet casual, welcoming space. It's not at all like the overheated, stereotypical image of a flamenco dancer emblazoned on the cover of the menu. It's certainly classier than what you'd expect to find in an aging Middleton shopping center. >More Home Talent League offers cheap thrillsJason Joyce on Thursday 06/25/2009Middleton's Home Talent League baseball team plays its home games at Sorenson/Bakken Field on Mendota Avenue, just north of University. If you get there early enough for a Sunday afternoon game, you can plop your lawn chair on the hill overlooking the third-base line, under a canopy of leafy trees. >More Beer Here -- Wild Rice from Capital BreweryRobin Shepard on Friday 05/29/2009 11:00 am, (15) RecommendationsAfter being out of the beer lineup for a few years, our own Capital Brewery of Middleton has a proven recipe that is returning to area beer shelves this summer. Wild Rice lager took a few years off, but it's out again now, and it's well worth picking up a six-pack over the next few weeks. >More Beer Here -- Hop Bock from Capital BreweryRobin Shepard on Monday 04/27/2009 1:30 pm, (2) Comments, (17) RecommendationsThe Middleton brewery has really come of age lately with a string of small-batch experimental brews that provide even more reason to celebrate. Last fall, Nelson released Barbara Imperial Doppelbock, a limited release named after his wife. His latest creation is Hop Bock, based on the big malty German lagers for which Capital is renowned, only this beer offers a subtle, yet firm, kiss of hops in its aroma and finish. >More Sofra in Middleton features Albanian dishesA good family bistroRaphael Kadushin on Friday 04/24/2009, (6) RecommendationsSometimes it's important to stress what a restaurant isn't. Sofra Family Bistro, and that name is a tip-off, isn't vying to be a stylish contender, or a hipstery clubhouse where men in porkpie hats pick at some fashion plate and compare it to a dish they just ate in Williamsburg or Wicker Park. >MoreMiddleton schools seek $67 million shot in armJay Rath on Thursday 03/12/2009The Middleton-Cross Plains Area School District wants voters to authorize $67.4 million for construction and operating funds in three referenda on the April 7 ballot. >More |
