The "Social Circle" is a group effort between readers, social networkers and the OnMilwaukee.com editors. Every Monday, we ask a question via Facebook and Twitter and then post the responses from our Facebook "likers" and Twitter followers in this column. Well-known Milwaukee movers and shakers will contribute, too.
It's finally have-a-drink-on-a-patio season in Milwaukee and so this week's Social Circle question asks about your favorite outdoor spaces for a drink. Where's your top spot?
Below is a sampling of the responses, but to read the entire thread, go here.
