Marketing alcohol to children and those who have a history of addiction is not a new phenomenon.  But a Milwaukee company, Drink Wisconsibly, has now made it into a joke, as well as a bar, novelty store and brand that includes its very own beverage company. You can also order a Brandy infused slushy from their location across the street from the taxpayer funded Fiserv Forum and home of the Milwaukee Bucks.

While they were initially successful and bought some bars that were not in compliance a few days' reprieve, their lawsuit has (as of now) been overruled.
