Rumors of a secret beer on tap in Lincoln, can you find it??

I have recieved information that a Nebraska brewery has released a Sticke Alt beer on tap in the Lincoln area with no recognizable tap handle.  Can you find it?

Sticke Alt beers are traditionally stronger darker versions of a Dusseldorf Altbier according the German Beer Institute.

From Wikipedia -  Some Altbier breweries have a tradition of producing a somewhat stronger version known as Sticke Alt, coming from a local dialect word meaning "secret". It is generally a seasonal or special occasion brew, and is stronger and sometimes darker than the brewery's standard output.

I am not sure how much of this tradition was followed if at all but this is a cool concept.  Get out and find this beer and post back cryptic hints on where to find and the brewery you think made it.  Don't give it away to anyone because that is the fun of it.  I do want to know who found the beer so even if you don't want to give a hint, tell us you found it.  This will be like a beer geocache.  Have fun!!

Maybe I should start a BeerLeaks page...

I agree, hints would be great if you can. I haven't got a clue so I can't help.

Beerleaks? Sorry, everyone in the bathroom already does that.

I'll be looking. For the beer, not the leaks.
