It's not surprising Capitol brews a good beer. What *is* surprising
is that it uses grain from Washington Island. Not only is that Island
a small place, but it doesn't have the sort of climate I associate with
amber waves of grain!

Thanks for the review. We just recently started getting Capitol
beers again in downstate Illinois after a long drought; I'll have
to keep my eyes peeled for this one.
