DAVENPORT, IOWA (May 24, 2023) — On Friday, May 26, 2023 local musician Daniel Stratman will be débuting a song entitled "Johnny Loon," inspired by local gangster John Looney. To coincide with the release of the song, Bootleg Hill Honey Meads will be releasing a special bottle of blended barrel-aged mead with the same name. Stratman will be performing for the press at 4:30PM and a regular concert 7-10PM for the public. The tasting room is located at 321 E 2nd Street, Davenport, Iowa.

Stratman is a local musician who writes original songs. He spent many years in southern California playing music before returning to the Quad Cities. He has released many studio albums and is very well known around the area.

Bootleg Hill Honey Meads is the QCA's original and only meadery. Mead is alcohol made from honey and Bootleg Hill is well known for their high quality of honey meads.

John Looney is the QCA's original gangster and inspiration for the Tom Hanks movie Road to Perdition.
