We visited Stevens Point and Plover on Saturday March 12, 2016. We had been at the 2016 First Tree Tapping just north of Stevens Point on Casimir Road, and after a stop for lunch at the Hilltop Pub & Grill, we headed into downtown Stevens Point to see the City – County building which houses the Portage County courts. There is also an annex because there just isn’t room to expand the county side of the building. Afterward we visited the Stevens Point Brewery, home of the infamous “Blue Bullets” but we did not have reservations for the tour. So we drove to neighboring Plover and visited the O’So Brewing tap room. It was very nice.

- We didn’t get a chance to see much other than the gift shop – for tours you need to make a reservation.
-
- We visited the O’So Brewing tap room. It’s located in a shopping mall, which seems a little strange.

- But it’s well worth the stop. So many beers, so little time!
