Away.com has a new list, "30 Things Every Traveler Must Do Before They're 30 ."
And, since Milwaukee's a part of it I'm sharing it.
Check out No. 26. It's a fine suggestion, and one I'd embrace: "Eat an iconic city meal." Author Lacy Morris writes, "Options include a cheesesteak in Philly, clam chowder in Boston, deep-dish pizza in Chicago, crabs in Baltimore, gumbo in New Orleans, BBQ in Memphis and a beer in Milwaukee."
Sure, one might cringe at the stereotypical Milwaukee reference. Milwaukee's more than beer, of course. Yet, let's embrace what we have and toast travelers who embrace and enjoy our iconic brews.
Cheers!
