Visited Great Dane for the second time on my third trip to Madison (missed it the first).  Overall, was originally attracted to try it out via the desire to grab some local brews, but the food ended up enticing me back for a second round.\n\nGreat Dane sports a wide variety of both staple and specialty brews.  All of them seemed pretty decent to me (my favorite being the Crop Circle Wheat), with the exception of a random or two (hot pepper beer anyone?).\n\nFood is your typical pub fare, but it's well executed.  Greasy as expected...  the calamari and curds were good, as was my jerk pork and my wife's brisket and johhny cakes.\n\nI'll probably make this a recurring to-do for my now annual voyage up north.
