Spring in Milwaukee is a greatseason. As the winter recedes,people here begin focusing onoutdoor activities.That includesenjoying all the fun Milwaukeepacks into the warmer months.
Baseball is a big attraction asthe Brewers kick off the MajorLeague season. Milwaukee loves baseball, and thespringtime offers us all a chance to dream aboutanother winning season.
The lakefront parks in Milwaukee see an influx of visi-tors. People from out-of-town are amazed byMilwaukee's "fresh coast"– the great vistas and openspaces along Lake Michigan.
And Milwaukee has a growing tradition of urban agri-culture including personal vegetable gardens, publicspaces dedicated to gardening, and prominent organ-izations promoting local production of healthy foods..
As the days grow longer and warmer, Milwaukeeansget outside, embracing the spring season. And theyparticipate in activities that make Milwaukee special.
Sincerely,
Tom Barrett, Mayor
Warmer weather meansMilwaukee County visitors cantake part in some great outdooractivities. Make your way to LakeMichigan and enjoy biking, skat-ing or sailing at the MilwaukeeSailing Center.
What better way to celebrate theoutdoors than with Earth Day.Head to one of our many parks on April 20th and cele-brate with festival, music and fun. Or see the animals atthe Zoo come out and enjoy the great spring weathertoo.
The Brewers hit the field this month, as fans fill MillerPark. Enjoy great food and friends as you cheer on ourteam.
If the outdoors is not for you, stop at the Marcus Centerfor the Performing Arts for the Milwaukee BalletCompany’s Spring Series. Or enjoy the Milwaukee ArtMuseum’s special exhibition, “Amazing Folk: Traditionsin American Art.”
Let KEY Milwaukee be your guide to the great opportu-nities in Milwaukee County as we jump into spring!

FROM THE PRINCIPAL owner to Hank, theadopted canine mascot, the Milwaukee Brewers areoptimistic they can improve on their 74-88 record oflast season.
"Our overall perception is that other teams in thedivision got weaker and we got stronger,” Brewersowner and principal owner Mark Attanasio said.“We'll see if that's true, but we clearly got stronger."
More about Hank later, but Attanasio and theBrewers have legitimate reasons to be optimistic.First, Ryan Braun, who was suspended for PED uselast season is back and ready to move on.
“I made a huge mistake,” Braun said. “I deeplyregret it. I wish I could change it.
“I recognize I don’t have an opportunity to do that,so all I can do is focus on the present, focus on the
future, look forward to this year and go out thereand do the things that I’ve done in the past.”
Braun will move to right field to replace departedNorichika Aoki, and promising Khris Davis isslotted for left field. Carlos Gomez and Jean Segurahad breakout seasons in 2013 and hope to continuetheir All Star caliber performances.
Gomez ended a 31-year drought for the Brewers bywinning a Gold Glove in center field and on offenseset career highs with .284, 24 home runs and 73runs batted in.
“Last year was a great year for me,” Gomez said. “Ifeel real good about the team this year and want tohelp us win.”
Segura, who hit .294 and finished second in theNational League with 44 stolen bases said, “I wantto keep improving. I’m a young player (24) and amstill learning.”
High hopes for 2014 BREWERS

Aramis Ramirez, who was plagued by injurieslast season, returns at third base and, if he canstay healthy, will add to run production.
Questions at second and first base were beingaddressed in the spring. Scooter Gennett andRickie Weeks were sharing time at second. A trioof veterans – Juan Francisco, Mark Reynolds andLyle Overbay – were vying at first.
It’s the second time around for Overbay, whowas the first baseman before Prince Fielder cameup from the minors. “I feel great here,” Overbaysaid. “I enjoyed Milwaukee, the organizationand fans the first time around and hope I canhelp the team win.”
Jonathan Lucroy has developed into a teamleader at catcher and is backed up by MartinMaldonado.
Veteran Matt Garza has been added to a startingrotation that already included Yovani Gallardo,Kyle Lohse, Willie Peralta, Marco Estrada andperhaps Tyler Thornburg. Several pitchers are inthe mix in the bullpen, with Canadian JimHenderson at closer.
I think we have more depth in pitching thanwe've had in the past," said GM Doug Melvin.“You can’t have too much pitching.”
As for Hank, the pooch mentioned at the start ofthis story, he wandered into the Brewers’ springtraining camp in Maryvale and immediatelyendeared himself to the players and fans. Theynamed him after former Brave and Brewer greatHank Aaron. He drew a great deal of nationalpublicity, raced in a Sausage Race (as the real“hot dog”) and added to the overall optimistic,upbeat attitude on the club.
Hank traveled to Milwaukee weeks before theopening game March 31 against the AtlantaBraves and will be living in the home of one ofthe Brewers’ executives. His “position” duringhome games this season has yet to bedetermined.

MILWAUKEE BEER BISTRO, a new venture on thecity’s upper east side, blends beer with food – whatmore could you ask for in Brew City?
On the drink side of the menu is a wide range of freshcraft and session beers from across the Badger state,along with carefully selected bottled beers fromthroughout the U.S.
Paired with the brews are unique beer-infused menuitems that range from appetizers to small plates todesserts. (Stout ice cream floats, anyone?)
This is the latest restaurant offering of Russ Davis,who who also delights diners at the TwistedFisherman in the heart of downtown and HubbardPark Lodge in Shorewood. Beer Bistro is located at2730 N. Humboldt Blvd. in Milwaukee’s eclecticRiverwest neighborhood.
Previously, the Beer Bistro location was the site ofRio West Cantina, also operated by Davis. After acomplete re-do of the menu and decor, the Bistroopened to the delight of beer afficionados and food-ies.
Lunch is served 11 a.m.-4 p.m., Monday throughFriday and dinner is served seven days a week from5-10 p.m. Weekend Brunch is featured Saturday andSunday, 10 a.m.-4 p.m. A special Easter Brunch isbeing planned as well. Live entertainment adds to thefun on Friday and Saturday.
With bratwurst, beer and cheddar chowder on thelunch menu, who can doubt that you’re in Brew City?Or on the salad side, how about smoked salmon,arugula and cherry tomatoes tossed in a Spotted Cow(beer) creamy lemon dill dressing with capers andboursin cheese?
Sandwiches include beer-braised turkey with meltedcheese, caramelized onion, sweet fig jam, sweet pep-pered bacon and lettuce and beef short ribs smoth-ered in beerbeque sauce and topped with beer cheese.
At dinner, intriguing small plates include Grown UpChicken Mac and Cheese that features a white ched-dar cheese pilsner sauce and roasted red peppers.Gluten-free options include a dish made with a vari-ety of root vegetables braised and tossed in rosemary
brown butter with a hint of gluten-free ale.
Vegans, as well as those eating gluten free, can trythe Lemon Grass and Ginger Tofu Cakes – madewith tofu, wild rice, lemon grass and Sorghum Ale.(The cakes are seared and topped with roasted redpepper sauce.)
Friday means a fish fry in Milwaukee, and the oneserved here is a stand-out. Try the classic beer bat-tered cod, or try the (locally raised) baked trout.
The Beer Bistro brings the same creativity to theweekend brunch offerings. Don’t miss the housemade waffles, stirred-up with a Heffe Weiss beerand drenched in beerberry syrup made from FatSquirrel Ale and blueberries. A gluten-free bakedfrittata combines eggs with spinach, roasted redpeppers, portabella mushrooms, cheese andSprecher gluten-free ale. (Served with a side ofbreakfast potatoes and sweet peppered bacon.)

Headed to a Brewers game?Leave the driving to others!MILWAUKEE’S Miller Park, home of theMilwaukee Brewers, is rated as one of the bestin baseball by sportswriters and sportscastersand by fans.
But unlike some Major League stadiums, it isa few minutes driving time from downtownand not within walking distance of majorhotels.
Here are a few tips for first-time visitors andeven returning fans: Many hotels and restau-rants in downtown Milwaukee and surround-ing communities provide shuttles to and fromhome games.
Two of the most popular downtownMilwaukee shuttles depart from TheMilwaukee Brat House (the Brat Bus), 1013 N.Old World 3rd St., and Trinity•Three IrishPubs, 125 E. Juneau Ave. In the Brady Streetarea, a shuttle for games runs from Jack’sAmerican Pub at 1323 E. Brady St.
Closer to Miller Park is a restaurant that hasbeen shuttling fans to Brewers games since theteam arrived in town and played in the oldCounty Stadium. Saz’s State House at 5539 W. State St. is close enough to the stadium to provide a quick getaway for fansin a hurry to return home or to their hotel.Many fans, however, linger at Saz’s to replaythe action.
