No, but we can get Lone Star now (it doesn't qualify for cheap or good,
tho') and Shiner. :-)

There's lots of breweries in MN and WI, and they run the full spectrum
-- the most pretentious cheap beer is called "Milwaukee Special Reserve
Ice" from LaCrosse, WI. I don't know what's Special or Reserve about
it, but it's cheap and it wets your whistle; about like Pearl Light but
with twice the alcohol. No nasty flavors to it, just not much flavor at
all.
