a must when visiting green bay. as green bay natives who've flown the coop, a visit to titletown brewing is a must whenever we have the opportunity to visit the area. when planning our visits, a trip to titletown brewing is always on the list, and thistimewas no exception.
on this visit, i ordered titletown's original "cranberry turkey melt. served on grilled zucchini bread, it's like having thanksgiving dinner in a sandwich. there was a generous portion of smoked turkey, along with slightly melted provolone cheese and leaves of tender baby spinach, all topped off with a tangy cranberry onion spread. the bread is slightly sweet, but pairs well with the sandwich, although it is slightly crumbly and sometimes makes the sandwich difficult to eat. the flavor of the cranberry onion spread is delicious - one expects the tangy sweetness of cranberry sauce, but gets the savory zip of the onions. served with the pub fries, there was more than enough for a meal.
hubby opted for the clock tower, billed as "a sandwich and a half," and that's exactly what you get! a full sandwich of pastrami and swiss on a dark rye is accompanied with grilled onions and beer mustard. stacked top and bottom with a half sandwich consisting of turkey and cheddar on sourdough bread and covered with sauteed mushrooms and an herb mayo, it's huge! again, there's more than enough for a meal.
we ended up sharing bites of all three sandwiches, and ended up taking some back to the hotel for later. as always, service was excellent, and we refreshed our memories of times when the old depot was up and running. green bay is lucky to have such an establishment, and we look forward to our next trip.
