Riverwest Brewery Tour

4 private brewery tours and 8 beer samples included!

Once known as the “Brew City”, Milwaukee has not seen the amount of breweries present today since the 1840’s! One of the highest concentrations of these breweries can be found in the Riverwest neighborhood. Join us to discover this often overlooked neighborhood and taste some of the best beer Milwaukee has to offer.

​Your tour begins at Lakefront Brewery, one of the first Micro-Breweries in Milwaukee! Lakefront began in an old bakery in Riverwest and has since grown to produce almost 50,000 barrels per year. Some of their accomplishments include the first certified organic beer in the country, the first gluten free beer recognized by the US Government, as well as what may be the first bottled fruit beer since prohibition.

​Next up is Gathering Place Brewing. In an ode to the Native American meaning of our present day Milwaukee, Gathering Place creates a space to join others at the “gathering of the waters” to enjoy their vibrant and unique beers.

Moving on, we head to Black Husky Brewing. Started in a cabin way “Up North” in Pembine Wisconsin in 2010, Black Husky moved to Riverwest in 2016. Each beer is inspired by the 23 sled dogs in their kennel – including “Sproose 2” the only Spruce IPA brewed year round in the US.

​Our last stop is Company Brewing. Keeping things local, Company has created a “neighborhood pale ale” brewed with hops harvested in the backyard of their neighbors! Stick around after the tour to enjoy live music or fill up on some of the food offered on their full menu.
