June highlights include:
Bike Nights

Wing of the Month – Chipotle BBQ Wings
Chefs toss one pound of house-made wings in a MOTOR BBQ sauce that’s been revved up a notch to produce a smoky, spicy finish that can’t be beat.
Burger of the Month – Curd Burger
Cheese curds, a favorite of many Wisconsinites, come piled high on an eight-ounce patty that also places extra bacon and ranch dressing on top, with lettuce, tomato and onion underneath.
Special of the Month – Pork Egg Rolls
Bursting with flavor, this crunchy egg roll is packed to the brim with smoked pork, cabbage and carrots seasoned with garlic and ginger, then served with a side of sweet chili sauce.
Beer of the Month – Furthermore Fatty Boombalatty
Part Belgian white, part pale ale, and entirely refreshing, this Belgian Style Ale mixes the bubblegum goodness of a big Belgian with enough crispness to cut through the sweet profile.
Cocktail of the Month – Spiked Iced Coffee
Not your typical cup of joe, wake up with an iced coffee that features Full Throttle Espresso Liqueur and includes a savory heap of whipped cream and chocolate syrup.
