The Mana Mobile truck, the mobile envoy for Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's Teramana tequila brand, is making a stop in Milwaukee as part of its "Great American Road Trip."

To celebrate its first stop in Wisconsin, fans of Teremana and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson are invited to stop by the truck at Cathedral Square Park, 520 E, Wells St., on Friday, Sept. 30 for complimentary brioche french toast (with Teramana infused syrup) and tacos between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m.

Inspired by The Rock’s famous phrase “Mana. Gratitude. Tequila.”, Mana Mobile is paying visits to locales across the states, spreading the good word about Termana Tequila while offering up some of The Rock's favorite "cheat meals." 

Teremana Tequila was created in the town of Jalisco where Johnson worked with a family-owned distillery to create the custom tequila. Its name translates as "spirit of the earth,'' from the Latin word "terra," meaning earth, and the Polynesian word "mana," meaning spirit.
