Forward Beverage Co.

Forward Beverage is a non-alcoholic lounge, so none of the cocktails they serve contain alcohol. Paul Yanzer gave up drinking alcohol a number of years ago, and when he and as wife Amy go out goes out to eat, for instance, it pretty much means he’s going to be drinking water. Paul has his beverages down to a science, literally. Paul is a chemist and a physicist. He managed research and development at Octopi Brewing in Waunakee. Through that company, he worked with a number of brands and helped them develop their flavor. Forward Beverage Co. is located at 303 N. Third Street. Their hours are 11 am-6 pm Tues.-Sat. Find them on Facebook under Forward Beverage Co.  Click here for more info, or call  715-841-0051.
