The beauty of Prine fans is that we all know the words, whether they make us sob or smile, so come sing-a-long, it don't cost very much, but it lasts a long while.

Shullsburg, Wisconsin native Ernie Hendrickson grew up on a steady diet of Willie Nelson, Bob Dylan, Neil Young and Jerry Garcia. These early heroes opened the gates to the deep well of American roots music which he continues to draw inspiration from. His 2007 solo record, Down the Road, of which the Illinois Entertainer deemed "Groundbreaking" pushed him onto the Midwest's radar as an emerging singer-songwriter. His second and third records 'Walking with Angels' and 'One For the Dreamers' found him working with industry veterans Bo Ramsey (Lucinda Williams, Greg Brown) and Chad Cromwell (Neil Young, Mark Knopfler) respectively. His latest effort, 'Roll On' released in summer of 2019 was recorded in Chicago with producer Brian Deck (Counting Crows, Iron and Wine). He has played stages from the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville to the Living Room in New York City and all points in between. His songs have been in regular rotation at over 100 different radio stations across the country and his fans will attest to the energy and fun found at his live shows, which in the spirit of his heroes are never the same and always evolving.

DESTIHL® is an independent craft brewery and restaurant company located in Normal, Illinois. in November 2007, DESTIHL Restaurant & Brew Works opened at the Shoppes at College Hills. The classic American-inspired pub fare focuses on bold flavors that pair well with a wide array of innovative craft beverages.

Following much success with the beer at DESTIHL Restaurant & Brew Works and then winning several major beer awards to garner national attention and demand for its beers, DESTIHL directed its attention toward growing its brewery operations. In May of 2013, DESTIHL Brewery opened in Bloomington, IL. By the end of 2015, there was more demand for DESTIHL beer than could be produced at their original production facility. So, in June 2016, construction began on DESTIHL Brewery's massive 47,000 sq. ft., $15 million-dollar brewery complex in Normal, IL, on about 6 acres of land. The new production brewery and Beer Hall opened to the public in May 2017. The Beer Hall features 30 taps, an exclusive menu of bold-flavored, American-inspired pub fare that pairs well with Beer Hall-exclusive beers, pilot draft releases, craft hard seltzers, hard ciders & house-made wines. In addition, the Barrel Room is the perfect event space for private events of all kinds.

The brewery currently distributes its beers in almost 40 states throughout the US. DESTIHL has also exported its beers internationally to Canada, South Korea, Sweden, and the United Kingdom. Visit destihl.com to find out how you can SUPPORT FLAVOR and BOYCOTT BLAND.
