If

If you are craving authentic German food and bier, I have the perfect place for you! The Von Rothenburg Bier Stube in Germantown Wi not only looks authentic, it tastes that way too. This picturesque building on Main Street is somewhat compact, but in summer, seating expands as the patio is open for dining. The building is traditional in German architecture, has beautiful stained glass windows, richly carved wood, and is packed with German decor on the inside. http://www.vonrothenburgs.com/home.htm

While the food menu is basic, the bier list is quite long. The food is actually carried across the lot line from Jerry's Old Town next You will find classic German selections like Leberkase (my husbands favorite), rollbraten and bratwurst. http://www.vonrothenburgs.com/menu.htm You may even shout "Das schmecht gut!" (that tastes good) once you take a bite! But I would venture that more people come here for the bier than the food! With over 200 beers on the menu, plus SIX German drought beers, you can find something that will treat your taste buds! According to their website: "A tiny and unassuming bier stube in old town downtown Germantown, Von Rothenburg features over 200 bottled beers from around the world as well as six drought German beers served in your choice of correct glassware, from a 2L boot or 3L pilsner to a 5L mug." In case you need an explanation on the differences between an Altbier and a BockBier, here is your primer: http://www.vonrothenburgs.com/bierglossary.html

The Bier Stube is open for lunch and dinners most days, but is closed on Sundays. http://www.vonrothenburgs.com/biergarten.html And what kind of beer garden would it be without some live music? Check the website for summer dates featuring Peggy Mueller on the button box, and her husband Hansi, dressed in Lederhosen plays spoons!

Sunday evenings in Tree Tops is usually a pretty quiet and peaceful time, but not this weekend...Early Sunday evening, July 25th, Flight For Life, landed in Tree Tops Park. Arriving to pick up an injured cyclist, the med flight landed right in the middle of Tree Tops Subdivision, while neighbors, police and firefighters stood by.

According to local news http://www.todaystmj4.com/news/local/51775892.html, a 12 year old rode his bike through a stop sign and was hit by an oncoming car. From the time the cyclist was hit, the number of onlookers grew. The first helped as best possible and called 911. By the time the med flight arrived, more neighbors were on the scene, but close access was limited by fire and police.

While it might be nice to get together and visit with neighbors, this isn't the way we'd like to do it! Our neighborhood park has seen kids playing, the annual Spring Egg Hunt, and now Flight For Life. Hopefully the latter won't happen ever again.

The 4th of July Parade in Germantown was the first time the Shorewest Firetruck has been seen in the area...Available to help put out fires for buyers and sellers, and rescue deals, Pat Tasker was able to meet and greet with many local residents in the parade this year. Driven by Shorewest President Joe Horning, and accompanied by his two sons, and my friend Emily Ryan we had a blast handing out frisbees and tatoos during the local parade.

If you are considering jumping into this market, and wand to be "safe" from the start, contact Pat Tasker at Shorewest Realtors to develop a "preparedness" plan! A local resident Pat not only actively sells in this market, but lives here too. She is able to promote the values and benefits of living here!

IT'S NOT JUST MY BUSINESS.....IT'S MY NEIGHBORHOOD!!
