Currently, all tour tickets should be purchased online ahead of time. Purchase through the link above. Any space on tours that didn’t sell online can be sold as walk-up tickets. Weekend tours almost always sell out ahead of time, plan ahead and purchase larger group tickets in one transaction.

All ticket sales are final and cannot be refunded.

That’d be a resounding “yes!” All patrons on the premise must be 21 with a valid ID or under the supervision of a parent or legal guardian. Aunts, uncles, brothers, and sisters are not legal guardians. The tour is geared toward adults, but kids and families are welcome at their own discretion. Kids 12 and under do not require a ticket but must but must remain next to their family for the entirety of the tour.

For non-beer drinkers, we offer our Golden Maple Root Beer as well as Coke products. Wine is available for guests over 21 as well.

Each tour will be limited to 35 people. If looking to get a table in our Beer Hall following the tour, we offer open seating that is first come, first served. Once you have a table, food can be ordered at our food counter and drinks are available at our main bar. Our patio is also first come, first served seating when available. Our patio offers bar service and our CurdWagon food truck on the weekends.

Not only do you get 50 minutes with one of our practiced entertaining tour guides, you will also receive 32oz. of award-winning beer and a free beer coupon at one of many fine establishments in the greater Milwaukee area (good for 3 days from your tour day). Beer will be available before the tour as well as part-way through the tour. Don’t forget to grab your souvenir pint glass before you head out!

We currently offer tours 7 days a week with tour times fluctuating based on the season.

On weekdays we are in production and cannot go through the entire brewery. Tourists can see much of the brewery and its equipment through glass windows, though. The weekday ticket price, usually $12, can fluctuate based on the holidays.

Weekend tours go through the entire brewery because we are usually not in production. Weekend tours are always busy and almost always sell out. The weekend ticket price is $15.

Our technical tour takes place on Sundays at 11 a.m. and consists of a detailed 90-minute tour through the brewery with a brewing expert, plus a 90-minute beer and food pairing session provided by one of our skilled chefs. These tours are limited to 15 people to give you the most intimate experience of our brewery.

*Our technical tour is currently on hold for the foreseeable future.*
