Milwaukee, a little closerBrew City: a beer lover’s guide to Milwaukee
Historic brewery tours, modern taprooms, and the mansion beer built — how to fit Milwaukee’s brewing history around a World Series game.
Tours worth booking
Lakefront Brewery is a classic, laid-back tour by the river. Book a time slot ahead on busy weekends and bring an ID.
Brewing history
Tour the Pabst Mansion to see how the city’s beer barons lived. Many of the old brewery buildings around downtown have been turned into hotels, lofts, and taprooms.
Drink responsibly
Use rideshare or The Hop between taprooms, and never drive after a tour.
Confirm current opening hours, tickets, access rules, and transport before visiting.
