WEST ALLIS, Wis. — Save room if you're going to the Wisconsin State Fair next month.

More than 70 new foods will be offered on the grounds. Bacon will be everywhere, as will foods made with beer.

Fairgoers will be able to try a Bacon Brat on a Stick, Beer Donuts, Cajun Frog Legs or an Elvis Sundae

The beer doughnuts are made by Grebe's Bakery. The beer is made into a gel, which is used to stuff the doughnuts.

Slim McGinn's is offering a Reuben Brat in a pretzel bun, as well as a Reuben Brat on a Stick.

Just to cover all the bases, there will even be a beer-battered, bacon-wrapped cheddar hot dog on a stick.

This year's Wisconsin State Fair runs Aug. 1 to 11.
