The Milwaukee Beer Museum was established to preserve and display the incredible variety of artifacts from the city's rich and storied history of beer, brewing and the beer barons. But the city itself is a museum, and four walls and a roof can not contain all of Milwaukee's surviving taverns, brewery buildings and malthouses.

Our Gallery section has over 550 pictures of both Milwaukee's exisiting and lost brewery treasures... brewhouses, tied houses, breweriana and the people that built the industry. Check it out, but set aside some free time... there's a lot to see!

On Sunday, January 21, 2007, Fox6 of Milwaukee aired a fantastic feature story on the Milwaukee Beer Museum by Jeremy Ross! Thank you so much! You can view the video here. Excellent job! The positive response this story has generated has been tremendous... confirming our original premise that Milwaukee not only deserves a beer museum, but wants one! The Milwaukee Beer Museum will be here soon. Thanks again!

 
Milwaukee is closer than ever to having what it has always deserved... a museum dedicated to its rich heritage of beer, breweries and saloons. Two weeks ago the finishing touches were made to our building's exterior, including the gold lettering to proclaim to the world that the Milwaukee Beer Museum is a brick, mortar, wood and glass REALITY!

With the invaluable help of Ed Green, designer of the "Streets of Old Milwaukee" in the public museum, work is now being done on the interior and on the exhibits to be displayed. We are currently on track to have an early spring Grand Opening.

In the mean time, we do have a few other special events planned, so watch this site... details will be posted here as soon as they are available!
