A Milwaukee ’must’ - location/building/ambiance are all you could want in a brewery. Huge tasting room upstairs with lots of tables, outdoor area on the river with more tables and a bar area (was being used as a ’secret stash’ by a construction guy when we were there). Beer is good, nothing over- or under- whelming, just good. Can’t imagine visiting Milwaukee without going here.

I’d probably give this place a better rating if I had done the tour. Everyone seems to rave about it, so I’ll have to carve out some time to do it one day. The staff is very friendly and extremely patient. I should probably check out some other breweries in Milwaukee, because I might have given this a higher rating if I had something to compare it to.

Not flashy at all, but the people that give the tour (we had a prior owner) are awesome. You get your beer basically immediately and you have a blast during the tour. Do it, you will enjoy.

Fun tour. Been on it three times. The tour guides are always funny and the beer is always good. Starting to get a lot busier now.

Visited during a stay in Milwaukee. For $7 each, we sampled 4 beers (of the 6 or so on tap) and received a great tour of the building and brewery operations. At the end of the tour, we turned in our corn-cellulose cups for Lakefront logo pint glasses. Well worth the $7. Big warehouse style sitting area with a stage and dance floor. Well ventilated and a cool (temperature) place to sit on a very hot summer day. The staff were all kind and courteous. The tour guide was knowledgeable and funny. I can understand why the place is so popular.

A really great beer tour, well worth money. You get four samples of beer plus a coupon for a full pour afterwards at several local establishments. If you go on Friday, you can take a tour and stay for a fish fry.

Great beer tour - probably the most fun in all of Milwaukee. Yes, you have to pay, but it’s worth it!

Cannot reccomend this highly enough! Best beer tour in town. Fish Fry and a Polka Band on Friday night.

Highly recommended, even if you’ve been on previous brewery tours. Tour guide Josh was extremely entertaining, informative, and interactive. The brewery itself has a lot of unused space as you first enter, I can only imagine that they use the large area for events. Price of the tour is reasonable and includes 4 6oz pours and a pint glass when it’s all said and done. Several tap options for 1 token, or 12oz bottles for 2. The bombers from the 88 series are also available to purchase: $7 if you plan on drinking there, or $5 if you want to take it home. The entire staff is extremely laid back and friendly. I even managed to score some Dan thanks to a lovely employee (a small quantity had been squirreled away.) If you find yourself in the Milwaukee area, you should definitely pop on in.
