When you walk into Hotel Metro for dinner you will be given the menu, wine list and of course our nightly specials which have been expertly crafted by our chef and sous chef. On the second page you will find our wine by the glass list, and here are some cliffs notes of how it reads.

Colosi Sicilia Bianco, Sicily, Italy

If you like Cabernet Sauvignon try these:

Michele Torino Don David Tannat, Cafayate Valley, Argentina
Two Angeles Petite Sirah, High Valley, Lake County, California.

There are some explanations on the first page as to how to figure out what the grape is on the glass list and the categories are a bit more detailed. So if you are adventurous and want to try something completely different but in a familiar style, stop by and ask for me.

I have also put together a classic cocktail menu, these drinks are the rage all across the country, which is filled with stories about the origin of them. As an example did you know that during prohibition Gin was made with what are now called the “aromatics” to cover up the heinous nature of the beverage. Remember alcohol was prohibited and the methods used to make the stuff were less than ideal.

The creation of “bathtub gin”, literally made in a bathtub, was so bad that covering it up with tonic, lemon juice and orange juice was the only way it was in the very least palatable, thus creating the cocktail. I have so many more stories (that are definitely more raunchy, just ask me how the term graveyard shift came to be) so please stop by!

In addition I have put together a comprehensive scotch list that has almost all the distilling regions of Scotland represented, well my birth name is Fraser one of the largest and most powerful clans in Scotland, so I feel compelled to pay homage to the rich and fascinating history of the distillates of Scotland.

In these pages I will alternate between talking about our current promotions and whats new and exciting on the wine list. I will also write some fun and educational….. wait, fun articles on various wine topics so keep checking back.

I look forward to being your host and sommelier at Hotel Metro Milwaukee!
