For those who love sausage (and we count ourselves among them), the Aug, 4 fire at Binkert's Meat was a heavy blow. Served around town at venues from the Brewer's Art to Zion Lutheran Church suppers, the sausages will be missed, albeit temporarily. The Rosedale store's web site promises reconstruction and reopening, possibly as soon as mid-September, but until then, we can only remember the sweet smokiness of Lothar and Sonya Weber's reddish brown landjaeger, the marjoram-laced slender Nuremberg sausages, chewy marbled bratwursts, and snappy, garlic-laden fat pink knockwursts. It won't be Oktoberfest without them.
